About Autoimmune…
Firstly there are many triggers to be aware of and it only takes 1 to be out of alignment for everything to end in a flare up.
So these are what I work with clients on.
1. Oral tolerance.
Many have issues with lots of foods. As soon as they eat they have reactions like bloating, pain, brain fog or worse.
This is because immature immune cells are being exposed.
2. Chemical tolerance.
If you struggle with scents like candles, petrol, perfume, there’s a reason.
This further shows immune imbalance and it’s important not just to remove the triggers but work on immune resilience
3. Food proteins
Doctors think if it’s not an IgE allergy, it’s not a problem.
That’s bullshit.
Plenty of great data to show IGg, IGA and IgM play a role in delayed food reactivity.
Plus there is something called molecular mimicry.
Gluten is similar to dairy as an example. So you avoid both.
4. Lifestyle.
Stress on it’s own can throw you into a flare.
Stop denying it exists.
Sleep is huge.
Movement is necessary but not too much.
It’s all about pacing.
5. Infections
Parasites, fungal, bacterial or viral infections can stop you getting into remission.
They have to be assessed and worked on at the right time.
6. Barrier health.
The gut, brain & lung barriers can become permeable and this leads to more inflammation being triggered.
This is tricky but can be helped.
If you read this list and your Doctor hasn’t discussed any of the above,
No surprise.
