Autoimmunity Explained

Autoimmune diseases occur when the immune system mistakenly attacks the body’s own tissues, leading to a range of health issues. A significant rise in these conditions correlates with environmental changes and the over-sanitization of our lives, which may be disrupting our immune systems. Exploring the root causes, including food, toxins, and stress, is crucial for understanding and potentially reversing these diseases. The hygiene hypothesis suggests that a lack of exposure to certain microbes may leave the immune system confused, prompting it to target the body itself.
