In autoimmune diseases certain aspects of the immune system are over-active, which results in an unrelenting attack on the body’s healthy cells, often accompanied by inflammation and pain. Natural agents can tone down the over-active aspects of the immune system, exerting important bioregulation ...
Autoimmune diseases are defined as an abnormal response of B cells and/or T cells towards endogenous antigens, which in turn leads to self-directed immunity and eventually presents as either localized tissue damage or as a systemic disease. ...
Gut microbiota regulates the immune system, the development and progression of autoimmune diseases (AIDs) and overall health. Recent studies have played a crucial part in understanding the specific role of different gut bacterial strains and their metabolites in different AIDs. Microbial...
This is why there’s often a focus on symptoms of intestinal permeability (leaky gut) and other digestive distress as possible indicators of autoimmunity. More Researchers Discover New Link Between Autoimmune Diseases and a Gut Bacterium Queen’s University researchers have, for the first time, ...
Arresting the progression of lifestyle diseases and reversing many health hurdles and symptoms is an inside job – healing from the inside out, one cell at a time. Come on in, look around, and let’s see how we can help… -Dr. Tom O’Bryan, DC, CCN, DABCN, CIFM ...
Autoimmune diseases (AIDs) arise from a breakdown in immunological self-tolerance, wherein the adaptive immune system mistakenly attacks healthy cells, tissues and organs. AIDs impose excessive treatment costs and currently rely on non-specific and universal immunosuppression, which only offer symptomatic...
Other well-known examples of autoimmune illness are lupus, multiple sclerosis, asthma, inflammatory bowel disease, psoriasis, arthritis (Rheumatoid or osteoarthritis), scleroderma, type 1 diabetes, and more; likely autoimmune diseases include ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or Lou Gehrig’s Disease),...
It is difficult to fulfill Koch’s postulates when considering the etiology of autoimmune diseases (AIDs), which are multifactorial diseases where a primary role is played by genetic factors associated with environmental factors responsible for their cli

Although the mechanisms underlying autoimmune disease are becoming clearer, our understanding of why, in some individuals, the immune system can be the cause of life-long, debilitating, and sometimes fatal disease remains incomplete. The incidence of autoimmune diseases is on the rise, and the ...
