Immune System Health Specialist

The immune system is designed to defend against foreign microorganisms whenever they attack the immune system or the whole body. This process is called the immune response. Sometimes many healthy cells are caught up in this process resulting in autoimmune diseases. The disorder happens when the immune system cannot define between foreign and own body cells. In this way, the immunity system has its own healthy cells, which leads to autoimmune disorders.

To improve the immunity system of the individual many Immune Health specialists prescribe medications with some physical exercise and a proper diet. This blog is all about the causes, examples, and treatment of autoimmune disorders.

Causes of autoimmune diseases –

The chances are high with people having more prone to autoimmune diseases. The exact Root Cause of Auto-immune Symptoms is still full of confusion and many more questions. 

• • In short, the low or hyperactivity of the immune system leads to this kind of disorder. The overly active immune system attacks the body and damages its own healthy tissues. The misconception about the immune system leads to many fatal diseases. 

• • Immune deficiency diseases decrease the body’s ability to fight foreign objects and increase the chance of infections and many more serious internal organ damages. In this case, instead of fighting the infection, it begins producing antibodies and attacks its own tissues.

• • The inheritance of certain genes increases the chances of autoimmune disorders in an individual. The combination of these kinds of genes and many other factors trigger many diseases to start.
