Autoimmune Disease & How to Fight it Naturally

Autoimmune diseases cause overactivity in the immune system. Your body attacks and damages its own tissues resulting in vulnerability to infections. Some examples are rheumatoid arthritis, scleroderma, vasculitis, asthma, and psoriasis. However, the most important thing to know if you suffer from an autoimmune disease is that it can be reversed. Many people fight their autoimmune disease with medications, but there are holistic methods also. Fighting it holistically means no side effects to deal with.

The cause is unknown, however, Mount Sinai suggests microorganisms or medications may trigger changes that confuse the immune system. For this reason, it is even more imperative to fight your disease naturally. We’ve compiled a list of natural remedies to reverse your disease and get your immune system back on track.

 

1. Know What to Eat and What to Avoid

Holistic Practitioners suggest eating veggies like gourds, pumpkins, broccoli, and zucchini. Turmeric and other spices are effective at fighting autoimmune disorders. Grains like barley, wheat, and quinoa are also great additions. For a full list of foods, check out this article from India Times. Foods that should be avoided are sour fruits, raw salads, soy, and vinegar. 

2. Vitamin D Supplements

Studies have shown that people who take vitamin D and omega-3 fatty acids have reduced their symptoms. The Harvard Gazette published one study finding vitamin D reduces risk in women aged 55+ years and men 50+ years. Unfortunately, more tests need to be done on younger individuals, however, it doesn’t hurt to add these supplements to your diet.

3. Moderate Exercise

Incorporating moderate exercise into your daily routine reduces inflammation, stress, and autoimmune conditions. Exercises as simple as jogging can promote a healthy rotation of immune cells. If you don’t have time to squeeze exercise into your day, try stretching before bed. Take five minutes and begin at the top of your body, moving your way down to your feet. UTHealth Houston also mentions gardening as a great moderate exercise that also benefits your diet. A limber body will promote an improved immune system and prevent disease from flaring.

4. Heal Your Gut

Huffington Post claims that your gut is the gateway to your health. A leaky gut means the tight junctions holding the walls of your intestines together loosen. This causes food particles, microbes, and toxins to enter your bloodstream, causing inflammation. To repair your gut, replenish the enzymes and acids necessary for proper digestion. Eat healthy bacteria like yogurt or take probiotics. Minimize your use of plastic, filter your air/water, and try organic products to reduce toxins from entering your body.

5. Boost your Immunity with Bio-Frequency Patches

BioActivate’s Immune Boost patches provide 48 hours of immune-boosting power in just one patch. The electro-charged signal is tuned to speed up your immune response and fight off infectious diseases. They increase your white blood cell count holistically while being non-invasive and fast-acting. Reduce your allergy symptoms easily while working away at your daily tasks.
