Investigating Common Triggers
Autoimmune conditions often stem from a complex interplay of factors, and at Livingspring Wellbeing, we partner with you to investigate these common triggers:
- Nutrient Insufficiencies: Discovering and addressing vital nutrient gaps can significantly improve symptoms
- Hormonal Imbalances: We address hormonal imbalances through personalised nutrition strategies.
- Food Allergies, Sensitivities & Intolerances: Identifying and managing dietary triggers that could be causing flare-ups
- Toxins: Addressing environmental factors such as heavy metals, mould, and chemicals, which may impact your condition.
- Chronic Infections: Tackling underlying infections that could contribute to autoimmune conditions.
- Overuse of Antibiotics/Drugs: Addressing the potential impact of medications on the immune system.
- Increased Intestinal Permeability (Leaky Gut Syndrome): Focusing on gut health and acknowledging that up to 80% of the immune system resides in the gut.
- Poor Digestive Function: Understanding and optimising digestive health, and recognising its significant role in the immune system.
Autoimmune
Your immune system protects your body’s healthy cell tissues by attacking any viruses, bacteria, pathogens, or diseases that enter your body.
Simply put, it prevents you from getting sick and helps you feel better if you fall ill. However, in autoimmune diseases, the immune system acts differently; your immune system gets confused and attacks your body’s healthy cells instead of the diseased ones. This complicates the medical issue because your body’s defense systems are working against it. If left untreated, serious medical problems may occur.
There are several autoimmune illnesses, each of which has its own unique symptoms. Symptoms of Autoimmune Thyroid diseases can include depression, fluctuations in weight, difficulty sleeping, and anxiety. Coeliac Disease manifests through digestive problems, neurological issues, rashes, and the sudden loss of control of your body’s movements. Those suffering from Rheumatoid Arthritis often detect symmetric joint problems in the wrists and hands.
