What is Autoimmune Disease?

Autoimmune diseases occur when the immune system mistakenly attacks healthy cells in the body, causing chronic inflammation, tissue damage, and a wide range of symptoms. These conditions can impact multiple organs and systems, including the skin, joints, thyroid, gut, and nervous system. Early diagnosis and the right approach to autoimmune disease treatment are essential to manage symptoms effectively and prevent further complications.

What Causes Autoimmune Diseases?

While the exact causes of autoimmune diseases are not fully understood, several factors are known to contribute to their development:
  • Genetics: A family history of autoimmune conditions increases your risk.
  • Environmental Triggers: Infection, toxins, or exposure to chemicals can activate the immune system abnormally.
  • Leaky Gut Syndrome: Increased intestinal permeability can allow toxins and antigens to enter the bloodstream, triggering immune responses.
  • Chronic Infections: Persistent infections (e.g., Epstein-Barr virus, Lyme disease) can overstimulate the immune system.
  • Stress: Chronic emotional or physical stress can trigger immune dysregulation.
  • Nutritional Deficiencies: Deficiencies in essential nutrients like vitamin D, magnesium, and omega-3s can impair immune function.
  • Toxin Exposure: Heavy metals and environmental toxins can disrupt immune regulation.

Common Symptoms of Autoimmune Disease

Symptoms vary depending on the specific condition but may include: 

  • Chronic fatigue.
  • Joint pain and stiffness.
  • Muscle weakness.
  • Skin rashes or lesions.
  • Digestive issues (e.g., bloating, diarrhea, or constipation).
  • Brain fog or difficulty concentrating.
  • Sensitivity to cold or heat.
  • Persistent low-grade fever.

How Do We Diagnose Autoimmune Diseases?

Accurate diagnosis is key to identifying the root causes of autoimmune dysfunction and tailoring an effective treatment plan. Our comprehensive diagnostics include cutting-edge lab tests and nutrient evaluations:

Laboratory Tests

We use advanced testing to uncover the underlying drivers of autoimmune disease:

Autoantibodies:

  • Tests such as ANA (antinuclear antibodies), rheumatoid factor, and specific antibody markers for conditions like lupus, Hashimoto's, or celiac disease.

Inflammatory Markers:

  • Tests like CRP (C-reactive protein) and ESR (erythrocyte sedimentation rate) to assess systemic inflammation.

Chronic Infection Testing:

  • Screens for infections like Epstein-Barr virus, Lyme disease, or cytomegalovirus that may trigger autoimmunity.

Gut Health Testing:

  • Stool analysis to evaluate gut dysbiosis, leaky gut, and microbial imbalances.

Nutritional Testing

Nutritional deficiencies play a critical role in autoimmune dysfunction. We recommend:

NutrEval by Genova Diagnostics:

  • A comprehensive test that evaluates nutritional imbalances, antioxidant levels, fatty acids, amino acids, and markers of oxidative stress.

Key Nutrients Evaluated:

  • Vitamin D, magnesium, zinc, selenium, omega-3 fatty acids, and B-complex vitamins.

How Do We Treat Autoimmune Diseases?

Our approach focuses on addressing the underlying causes of autoimmunity and restoring balance to the immune system. Treatments are tailored to reduce inflammation, detoxify the body, and replenish essential nutrients.

Ozone Therapy

Ozone therapy is a powerful tool for modulating the immune system and reducing chronic inflammation. We offer two effective forms:

  • 10-Pass Ozone Therapy:
  • Delivers high doses of ozone into the bloodstream to increase oxygenation, support detoxification, and reduce inflammation.
  • Benefits include improved energy, decreased pain, and enhanced immune regulation.
  • EBOO (Extracorporeal Blood Oxygenation and Ozonation):
  • A cutting-edge treatment that filters and ozonates the blood outside the body to remove toxins, improve circulation, and restore immune balance.

Detoxification

Chronic exposure to toxins can disrupt immune function and contribute to autoimmune symptoms. Our detox therapies include:
  • Chelation Therapy:
  • Removes heavy metals and environmental toxins from the body.
  • Liver and Kidney Support:
  • Nutritional IVs with glutathione, alpha-lipoic acid, and vitamins to enhance detox pathways.
  • Infrared Sauna:
  • Encourages sweat-mediated toxin elimination.

Nutritional IV Therapy

Nutritional deficiencies can impair immune regulation and worsen autoimmune symptoms. Our customized IV therapies include:
  • Essential Nutrients:
  • High-dose vitamin C, magnesium, and B-complex vitamins to reduce inflammation and support cellular health.
  • Glutathione:
  • A powerful antioxidant that neutralizes free radicals and supports detoxification.
  • Omega-3 Fatty Acids:
  • Reduces inflammation and supports brain and immune health.
