Inflammatory & Autoimmune Disease Treatment
Autoimmune disease treatment begins by understanding the triad of autoimmune and inflammatory disorders:
- Genetic predisposition
- A triggering event that turns those problematic genes on
- Gut permeability
Patients may be powerless over these factors, but they don’t have to accept a future of pain and frustration. Functional medicine can heal the source of autoimmune and inflammatory problems. By looking at the whole picture, functional medicine specialists can develop incredibly effective protocols informed by lab results, patient history, and evidence-based practices.

The three triggers for autoimmune conditions are genetic predisposition, gut permeability, and a triggering event, such as an underlying infection, toxin exposure, or major life event.
