Autoimmune Disease: A Root-Cause Approach
“Autoimmune issues affect 8% of the population, with less than 1/3 actually diagnosed.”
Do you or someone you know have: rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, sjogren's, scleroderma, thyroid problems (thyroiditis, hashimotos, graves), skin issues, psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, MS, celiac disease, alopecia, crohns, vitiligo, etc.?
If so, they have an autoimmune condition. Autoimmunity has become so prevalent in our society and yet just now are people starting to question the cause of these conditions.
At the root, all autoimmune conditions are connected by one central biochemical process, a runaway immune system aka "systemic inflammation" that results in your body attacking its own tissues.
Your immune system is your internal army, it has to determine between friend or enemy, autoimmunity forms when your immune system gets confused and your own tissue gets caught in the crossfire; your body is fighting itself.
What could your body be fighting? A bacterial infection, parasitic overload, food sensitivity, stress, poor gut health, the list goes on. By using Bioenergetics, we help you determine what your body is fighting and how best to support it in fending off the unwanted invaders. This is how we take a root-cause approach to autoimmune conditions, rather than a symptomatic approach.
Staggering Autoimmune Statistics:
1. Early or "pre-autoimmune" disease is often present for more than 10 years before being diagnosed.
2. 80% of those who have autoimmune disease are women.
3. Autoimmune health can shorten a life by 8 years.
