Autoimmune disorders, where the body’s immune system attacks its own cells, can be debilitating In my practice i usually advocate for a gluten and dairy free lifestyle for an autoimmune patient as well as starting on low dose naltrexone, The dose starts at 1 mg and usually is titrated to 4.5 within 2-3 months.
Autoimmune disorders manifest when the immune system mistakenly targets and attacks the body’s own cells. Conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, and multiple sclerosis fall under this category There are 120 plkus autoimmune issues but only 30 + have serum markers. For example hashimoto’s thyroiditis has TPO antobodies ( thyroid peroxoidase) and Rheumatoid arthritis, has rheumatoid factors. Some autoimmune disorders do not have serum marlkers as Psoriasis and Multiple sclerosis.
Foods that fight inflammation can be powerful allies in managing autoimmune disorders. Omega-3 fatty acids, found in fish like salmon and mackerel, have been shown to reduce inflammation
There are also foods that have a high antioxidant potential. These foods are blueberries ( and all other purple berries) and other citrus fruit as grapefruits, oranges and amla ark chocolate, for example, is not only a delicious treat but also rich in flavonoids, a type of antioxidant. Nuts and seeds like almonds and sunflower seeds are another excellent source of antioxidants, Walnuts provide omega 3 if you not eat fish
Those with autoimmune issues need to avoid caffeine, sugars and, processed foods. Hydrate with waterr throughout the day
