hey guys I wanted to share with you just some data on the autoimmune diseases a lot of times it’s really confusing if you have a problem with one of the autoimmune diseases I just want to give you some insights on my opinion about it first of all what is an autoimmune condition it’s basically a condition where your body has made antibodies against itself so you have this self attack so you got immune cells that are attacking your own tissues and it could be any tissue or organ or gland or even a hormone so alopecia for example that’s autoimmune of your own hair okay so you have hair spots of hair it’s falling out ankle loing spinal litis that’s of the joints that’s a condition over time where a person literally turns into a stone every single joint becomes Frozen it’s terrible diabetes Well there’re one of the causes of a certain type of diabetes is autoimmune of the cells that make insulin pancreas uh Graves that’s a hyper thyroid it’s too much it’s a hyper thyroid um autoimmune and then Hashimoto is a hypo slow thyroid condition um both autoimmune and then you have Lupus which is the skin in the joints uh multiple sclerosis that’s of the brain and the nervous system uh miastenia gravis that’s of the thymus gland that’s a little immune gland on top of your heart uh and then we have rheumato arthritis which is a very really tragic um um destruction of your connective tissue around the joints and it can deform the joints scar sarcosis that’s of the lung so you have these little tumors in the lung that you’re these antibodies are attacking so so those are just some a small list of a sample of different conditions right so I have my own theory about this there are theories floating around relating to um um the vitamin D deficiency because the vitamin D receptor has been hijacked by microbes okay so they use a certain medication to try to help that um also microbial um invasion of like a virus or a certain microbe that can cause this that’s another theory that’s floating around that’s so they put people on antibiotics for a long term okay but there is usually one drug that they usually always use it’s for inflammation it’s it’s a steroid it’s prazone why and my question is why do they use that well what is a steroid it’s an adrenal hormone okay so if we turn into Frank net Encyclopedia of Endocrinology page 84 talks about cortisol that’s that’s cortisone or prazone cortisol is a an anti-inflammatory it’s also part of the it controls part of the immune system so it controls the white blood cell so if the adrenals that produce cortisol are burnt out in a condition called Addison you don’t have an immune system system it’s gone so that’s the danger of the not having adrenal so this is what it says right here it says when cortisol is like way too high over a long period of time which basically is stress induced you get a breakdown of intracellular barriers raising susceptibility to immune weaknesses okay so what does that mean it means that the adrenals are countering stress and when you lose control of the adrenal you become more susceptible to viruses and bacterias and immune problems okay that’s what that means so every single case that I’ve ever seen with Ms in the last 27 years and there’s been a lot of them they’ve always tell me the same thing I say when did you get this condition and they tell me when they got it I say what happened just before and there’s always a stress always lost of a loved one a divorce uh a serious trauma a pregnancy a lot of women during pregnancy they can develop conditions but here’s the interesting thing autoimmune diseases turn off when you’re pregnant so if you could just want to stay pregnant all the time you your autoimmune diseases just go in remission so there’s a self-protecting mechanism so these antibodies don’t destroy the fetus so that’s interesting so I believe that autoimmune this is my own Theory comes from a weakness within the adrenal system induced by a stress state so here are some things that I would recommend to do I would whatever triggered it you have to handle that stress right you have to improve that situation so if it’s involved with a stressful job you know get another job fast go for long walks when people under stress they tend to gravitate to pleasure foods and junk Foods right that’s a big mistake the other thing that you want to do when you have inflammation especially like the rheumatoid arthritis you want to really increase your potassium now in the in this other videos I talked about I talked about you need 4700 milligrams of potassium with these conditions you need about 5500 milligrams of potassium why because pottassium decreases the need for adrenal uh function so you have more potassium adrenals can be chilled out and they can work better and the other thing is the adrenal glands dump potassium so you lose your potassium with stress um so we want to support the adrenals that would be my suggestion with with these conditions so that’s my theory and I’m sticking to it hey guys thank you so much for watching please click the Subscribe button and I will see you in the next video
