Autoimmune Inflammatory disorders (The Flame Within) Prevention, Risk Factors, Diagnosis, Medical and Alternative Treatments.

Preface This book is addressed to solve the personal, social and medical challenges facing the individuals, implications to the individuals suffering from the difficult to diagnose conditions are provided. Thousands of individuals with Chronic Fatigue and Fibromyalgia, Multiple Sclerosis, neuropathy and epilepsy can improve with immunomodulatory treatments. Autoimmune diseases have become the number one diseases process today. Currently heart disease, diabetes, cancers, strokes are all fueled by autoimmune mechanisms. By a mechanism called molecular mimicry which is the basis of all of autoimmune diseases; a deceived immune system starts to attacks its own body cells, which it was supposed to protect. Treatment of autoimmune diseases should be directed at the cause. We present our case against pathogens responsible for deceiving our immune system and causing autoimmune disease. Removing the causative organism has ended the era of deception, thousands of individuals have improved and couple of hundred reports has been published confirming what you will find in this book. Majority of the diseases are triggered by know pathogens, gliadin a glycoprotein in gluten causes Celiac disease. It is necessary to remove these proteins to achieve a cure from autoimmune diseases they cause. We have included treatment guidelines which range from over the counter diet products to expensive infusions. Guidelines for treatment of Alzheimer's, arthritis, heart attacks, Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue are provided. Even the diagnosis of autoimmune disease has been simplified by observation of the disease cycle. Simple tests to confirm inflammatory disease and associated immune deficiency are provided. We hope to revolutionize the treatment of autoimmune diseases, by illuminating a step by step process to diagnose and treat the molecular basis. Autoimmune conditions keep on growing daily so those diseases not addressed will be included in the upcoming edition."
