The Role of Diet in Autoimmunity
A nutritious diet is crucial for managing and potentially reversing autoimmune diseases. It is emphasized that one cannot expect to improve autoimmune conditions while maintaining a poor diet. Instead of seeking quick fixes, such as pills, individuals must understand the importance of dietary choices, including elimination diets that can help reset the gut and reduce inflammation. Incorporating healthy foods can create a foundation for subsequent medical interventions like immunomodulators to work more effectively.
