RE: The Immune System: Your Best Friend, Your Worst Enemy

in #steemstem6 years ago

An interesting read. I've done a fair bit of research on autoimmune disease myself since I developed eczema about 15 years ago. I attended a skin clinic where they prescribed cream but said it wouldn't cure the condition just control it. Not a word was said about diet. After doing a bit of research into the causes of inflamation, I changed my diet completely and started juicing daily, something I still do to this day, and within about 3 months the eczema had completely disappeared and hasn't troubled me since.
It's made me a great believer in the old 'let food be thy medicine.'

Thanks for reading (I know it's a long blog). The steroid creams cover the symptoms but don't solve the problem. You were clever to find the antagonist. Eczema can be very troubling, and resistant to treatment. I'm happy your change in lifestyle did the trick :)
