Autoimmune Diseases

What It Is

Autoimmune diseases occur when the immune system mistakenly attacks the body's own tissues, perceiving them as foreign invaders. This inappropriate immune response can lead to inflammation and damage in various organs and systems. There are over 80 different autoimmune diseases, and they can affect different parts of the body. Some well-known examples include:

  • Rheumatoid Arthritis: Affects the joints and causes inflammation.

  • Lupus: Affects multiple systems, including the skin, joints, and organs.

  • Multiple Sclerosis: Attacks the protective covering of nerve fibers, impacting the nervous system.

  • Type 1 Diabetes: Destroys insulin-producing cells in the pancreas.

  • Hashimoto's Thyroiditis: Affects the thyroid gland, leading to hypothyroidism.

Symptoms can vary widely depending on the disease and the organs involved, but common signs include fatigue, joint pain, skin rashes, and fevers. Treatment often focuses on managing symptoms and reducing immune system activity through medications, lifestyle changes, and supportive therapies.

Inflammation

What It Is

Inflammation is the body’s natural response to injury, infection, or harmful stimuli. It involves the activation of the immune system, leading to increased blood flow and the release of various chemicals that help fight off pathogens and promote healing.

There are two types of inflammation:

  1. Acute inflammation: This is a short-term response that occurs immediately after tissue injury. It usually resolves quickly and is characterized by redness, heat, swelling, and pain.

  2. Chronic inflammation: This is a prolonged response that can last for months or years. It may result from unresolved acute inflammation, autoimmune diseases, or persistent irritants, and can contribute to various health issues, including heart disease, diabetes, and certain cancers.

While inflammation is essential for healing, excessive or prolonged inflammation can be harmful to the body.
