Autoimmune Disorder

Your immune system is designed to fight off foreign invaders, like viruses and bacteria. When the immune system begins attacking healthy cells, an autoimmune disorder develops. ALL autoimmune disease begins in the gut. The microbes in our gut play a significant role in the health of our immune system.
An unhealthy gut microbiome can result in damage to the lining of the intestines. This allows the gut barrier to be penetrated and, bacteria, that can be handled in the gut, is now spread into other areas of the body. The immune system jumps into action, defending the body against itself. Bacteria can also travel through the lymphatic system, which is networked throughout the body, causing a systemic (all over the body) reaction.
Inflammation, caused by eating a lot of sugar, carbohydrates, processed junk food as well as stress and alcohol, can cause a breakdown in the tissues and lead to pain in every area affected. A diet of whole foods, especially grass-fed beef, raw milk, and bone broth, and herbal remedies to control inflammation, can help you recover your health.
This elementary description of autoimmune disorder is the tip of the iceberg. This page cannot cover the scope of autoimmune disorders, as there are over 80 different types. But, when you think autoimmune, think gut health. This is the first place to start.
Possible Causes
Poor gut health, environmental toxins, ultra-processed foods, alcohol, stress, diet high in refined carbohydrates and sugar
