Kamikaze Organism. How to Recognize an Emerging Autoimmune Disease and Take Timely Action

An autoimmune disease is a war of the immune system against the cells of its own body. Why does the immune system malfunction? How does an autoimmune reaction develop? Who is to blame for the fact that some live normally their whole lives while others suffer from the dysfunctions of their own bodies from a young age? The authors, Polish scientists, dietitians, and doctors, know very well that it may take decades between the development of a disease and the first alarming signs. If a symptom is recognized in time, chronic inflammation can be halted, thereby preventing a future tragedy. The book describes in detail the main autoimmune pathologies, lists their symptoms, and provides a list of tests that need to be taken. There are factors that contribute to the exacerbation of autoimmune pathology and factors that diminish its strength. At the end, there is a plan to reduce the chances of developing autoimmunity or to achieve remission in case of the disease.
