Autoimmune Disease

Autoimmune diseases are conditions where the body’s immune system attacks it’s own tissues. The incidence of autoimmune disease has tripled in the last few decades. Recent research has indicated that a disruption in the gut microbiota (collection of organisms) has been linked to autoimmune disorders.

Treating autoimmune disease with proper nutrition to re-balance the gut microbiome, along with lifestyle and supplement recommendations can help support your immune and digestive   systems. People with one autoimmune disorders are prone to getting other autoimmune disorders, many of which begin with nonspecific inflammation.

With conventional and specialized testing, we are able to monitor inflammatory markers, micro-nutrient status and the development of food sensitivities.
