Did You Know -Autoimmune disease affects approximately one in 20 people. An autoimmune disease occurs when a person’s immune system launches an attack against their own cells, tissues and/or organs. This results in inflammation throughout the body, and potential damage to specific organs.
There are more than 80 different autoimmune diseases, ranging from skin conditions such as psoriasis, to potentially life threatening diseases such as lupus, Crohn s disease and multiple sclerosis.
Even though conventional medicine states that there is no cure for autoimmune disease there are practical strategies available to you to assist your body to deal with these conditions that may alleviate the symptoms.
