Autoimmune diseases CAN be healed, if you know how to approach them properly. Here are 10 KEY CAUSES of autoimmunity - and what to do about them:
1. LEAKY GUT. Intestinal permeability leads to inflammation systemically, skewing T cells away from anti-inflammatory to pro-inflammatory types. Roughly 80% of your immune system is in the gut, and if it's off it is perhaps the primary trigger of autoimmunity.
2. DYSBIOSIS. Again we see how vital the gut is. Butyrate producing bacteria are vital to keep these T cells in check (more anti-inflammatory Tregs), while low butyrate production impairs the immune response. Butyrate has multiple direct anti-inflammatory effects on other
3. LOWERING STRESS. Seemingly paradoxically, while glucocorticoids are given to treat these conditions, in the long run cortisol can actually enhance the inflammatory response in response to tissue damage. These tissues can become damaged due to excessive adrenaline, and leaks
4. MASTERING ESTROGEN. Autoimmune conditions are much more common in woman than in men, and estrogen seems to be a culprit. Estrogen in excess can have pro-inflammatory effects on the immune system, especially in conditions like lupus. This is not true for all autoimmune
5. MITOCHONDRIAL FUNCTION If your mitochondria aren't working properly: ◇ Immune cells reprogram to become more inflammatory ◇ They generate more inflammatory components ◇ They cannot generate enough energy to resolve inflammation The inflammatory state is one of
6. VAGUS NERVE OPTIMIZATION The vagus nerve is our primary parasympathetic (calming) nerve. It connects to various tissues that harbor immune cells, and signals to them to calm down and promote anti-inflammatory effects. This is critical in autoimmunity.
7. DIFFERENTIATING NUTRIENTS The immune system has cells that divide and differentiate rapidly. These processes require lots of: ◇ Zinc ◇ Vitamin A ◇ Vitamin D ◇ Vitamin C in order to work properly. Without them, immune cells can't become their proper form and can get
8. OMEGA 3 / 6 BALANCE Omega 3 fats (grass fed beef, pastured eggs, seafood) metabolize into mediators known as resolvins - which help to halt the inflammatory processes. Omega 6s (pork, chicken, seed oils) do the opposite, metabolizing into pro-inflammatory mediators. They
9. LYMPH OPTIMIZATION Your lymphatic system is not only imperative for clearing out cellular debris that can trigger the inflammatory processes, but it also ensures that lymph fluid and immune cells are moving to lymph nodes where they can properly mature. No flow = more
10. OXIDATIVE STRESS The production of reactive oxygen species is perhaps the most fundamental trigger of inflammation. Within cells, these molecules (ROS) trigger the activation of the master inflammatory regulator NF-κB, which is responsible for every single inflammatory

@Outdoctrination lol long half true list and you didn’t mention nr 1 . LOSS OF MELANIN. Autoimmunity is a non-native EMF disease with destroyed melanin inside you. All autoimmune people are pale. Autoimmunity is almost unheard of at the equator. Move there if needed.
@sungodreborn what is "half true" about it
@Outdoctrination magnesium is key and D3
@Outdoctrination Focusing on gut health, nutrients, stress, and omega-3s can really help calm inflammation and support the immune system, even though autoimmune conditions usually need ongoing care.
@Outdoctrination I came here expecting to see the gut and got no less than expected, very good thread my friend.
@Outdoctrination Autoimmune diseases don’t exist,the notion the body attacks itself is wrong.
@Outdoctrination The root cause of autoimmune is always a protein the body rejects whether for example through gut permeability or injection of the deadly spike protien from the COVID shot. Elimination diet or FOD Map testing the best ways to determine which protein one is intolerant of.
@Outdoctrination cancer is an autoimmunne disease too
@Outdoctrination Alopecia Areata???
@Outdoctrination Has anybody dealt with or fixed intense prickling under the skin after showers/ sweating with no rash?
@Outdoctrination @threadreaderapp unroll
@Outdoctrination Now do type 1 diabetes.
