| autoimmune bible: Reversing Diabetes Don Colbert, 2012-03-06 It is possible to manage and even reverse diabetes through natural means, and in Reversing Diabetes, Dr. Colbert shows you how. Most people view diabetes as a dead-end street. Once you receive a diabetes diagnosis, your only option is to manage the symptoms with a restricted diet, close monitoring of blood sugar, and expensive medications. Dr. Colbert shows that diabetes can be treated instead through safe, natural means, like healthy food and vitamins rather than strictly relying on prescription drugs. He shows you how to manage your weight and your glucose intake with a whole-body approach, using nutritional supplements along with dietary and lifestyle changes to lose weight, repair cell damage, improve insulin function, and reduce the side effects from prescription drugs, many of which rob nutrients from the body and cause additional symptoms. Based on the same life-changing principles of the low-glycemic, high-fiber eating plan provided in Dr. Colbert’s New York Times best-selling book, Dr. Colbert’s “I Can Do This” Diet, this book adapts that plan in a way that makes it ideal for diabetics who need to manage their glucose levels and their weight. “Siloam, an imprint of Charisma House Book Group, is the leader in the Christian health and fitness genre, with several best-sellers...including Don Colbert's The Bible Cure series.” --Christian Retailing “Physician Don Colbert Preaches The Gospel Of Good Nutrition, Advising His Patients To Follow In The Footsteps Of One Of History's Better-known Role Models.” --Orlando Sentinel |

| autoimmune bible: Autoimmune Disorders Abdulla Watad, Nicola Luigi Bragazzi, Yehuda Shoenfeld, 2024-06-17 Autoimmune Disorders Comprehensive resource on the science of autoimmune disorders, covering causes, treatment, prevention, and the latest research in the field Autoimmune Disorders is an authoritative reference on the science of autoimmune disorders, covering their causes, including infections, vaccine adjuvants, environmental stimuli, and silicone implants, the latest research on the genetics, epigenetics, and immunology of autoimmunity, predictive markers, therapeutic approaches for treatment and prevention, and suggestions for future research directions. This book explores the intricate connections between adjuvants and autoimmune responses, focusing on the emergence of the Autoimmune/Inflammatory Syndrome Induced by Adjuvants (ASIA syndrome), as well as autoimmune connections in areas such as chronic fatigue syndrome, autoantibodies targeting the autonomic system, and small fiber neuropathy. The authors emphasize the profound impact of vaccines on public health, underscoring that their benefits far outweigh potential side effects and exploring the historical context of adjuvants in vaccine development. From tattoos to environmental factors, each chapter adds a unique thread to the tapestry of adjuvants, autoimmune responses, and their interactions. Sample topics covered in Autoimmune Disorders include: Food additives and dental implants as a trigger of autoimmunity and increased risk of ASIA syndrome as a result of the chemical and social factors Sustained immune activation in ASIA syndrome as a bridge to lymphomagenesis and how immune checkpoints, metals, and bisphenol connect to autoimmunity Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia syndrome (POTS), Sick Building syndrome, and Gulf War syndrome (GWS) as parts of ASIA syndrome Sarcoidosis and Sjögren’s syndrome as a proof of concept of hyperstimulation syndrome Autoimmune Disorders is an essential reference on the subject for academics, specialized postgraduate students, and practicing professionals seeking to improve integrated research strategies and foster a deeper understanding of the complex relationship between immunology, public health, and individual well-being. |
| autoimmune bible: Inflammatory and Autoimmune Disorders of the Nervous System in Children Russell C. Dale, Angela Vincent, 2010-01-19 Inflammatory disorders of the nervous system, although individually uncommon, collectively make up 10-20% of acute paediatric neurology presentations and many are potentially treatable. Research into them is lagging behind adult research, but better diagnosis and often simple treatments could lead to substantial clinical benefit and reduction in long-term disability. This book provides a detailed and comprehensive summary of the childhood diseases that are, or are likely to be, caused by the immune system. The authors not only describe these disorders and their treatments comprehensively, helping pediatricians and pediatric neurologists to improve their understanding and recognition of the conditions, but also highlight recent and exciting developments that will be of considerable importance in the future. |

Williams, 2011-07-12 A “radical” approach to holistic healing that examines the root causes and cures for ailments such as Alzheimer’s disease, breast cancer, and heart attacks • Offers cutting-edge detoxification and draining therapies to address the tremendous chemical onslaught of modern life • Explains the profound health problems caused by dental amalgams, vaccinations, antibiotics, cosmetics With the historic use of toxic mercury amalgam fillings, excessive courses of antibiotics, damaging childhood vaccines, and the many industrial pollutants and chemicals that have been spread into our air, water, and food over the past century, general holistic health guidelines are simply no longer adequate for most people. Only through radical measures--that is, getting to the true root or underlying cause of disease--can effective healing occur. In Radical Medicine, naturopathic physician Louisa Williams describes how to treat these and other modern-day “obstacles to cure,” in order to ensure against future degenerative disease and achieve the optimal health that is our birthright. Examining the many health problems triggered by dental amalgams and poor dentistry, Dr. Williams explains that our teeth are focal points for health issues that arise elsewhere in the body. She explores the impact of vaccinations, the excessive use of antibiotics, and the chemical-laden products used as health and beauty aids--which are linked to Alzheimer’s disease, heart attacks, and breast and other cancers--and provides information on cutting-edge detoxification treatments as well as drainage and nutritional therapies. A practical guide for practitioners and patients alike, Radical Medicine offers a wealth of holistic, natural therapies for overcoming what is poisoning us and our world so we can achieve optimal health and well-being. |

If you think you’ve read all you need to know about healing, it’s time to take another look.

| autoimmune bible: The Autoimmune Fix Tom O'Bryan, 2016-09-20 Do you have crud in the blood? Millions of people suffer from autoimmunity whether they know it or not. The root cause of most weight gain, brain and mood problems, and fatigue, autoimmunity can take years--or even decades--for symptoms and a clear diagnosis to arise. Through years of research, Dr. Tom O’Bryan has discovered that autoimmunity is actually a spectrum, and many people experiencing general malaise are already on it. And while autoimmune diseases, such as Alzheimer’s, Multiple Sclerosis, osteoporosis, diabetes, and lupus, have become the third leading cause of death behind heart disease and cancer, many people affected are left in the dark. The good news is that many autoimmune conditions can be reversed through a targeted protocol designed to heal the autoimmune system, 70 percent of which is located in the gut. The Autoimmune Fix includes two comprehensive 3-week plans: In the first 3 weeks, you’ll follow a Paleo-inspired diet during which you cut out gluten, sweets, and dairy--the three primary culprits behind autoimmunity.

| autoimmune bible: Eating to Glorify God Tamera Shearon, 2018-11-30 Autoimmune diseases are on the rise, affecting millions of people each year.

| autoimmune bible: Invisible Melissa Marquis MS RN, 2024-09-11 Have you ever felt invisible? Have you ever gone to the doctor with complaints of not feeling well but were unable to pinpoint specific symptoms only to be dismissed by them? Do you or a loved one have a diagnosed or suspected autoimmune disease? Do you want to learn practical tips to living a more balanced life with autoimmune disease? If you answered yes to any of these, then this book is for you. It took over twelve years for Melissa Marquis to receive a medical diagnosis for the multiple complex symptoms plaguing her.

She credits her clinical expertise with providing an unmatched understanding on navigating the health-care system to obtain necessary care over her fifteen-year history of living with progressive, chronic, and rare autoimmune diseases. In Invisible: A Nurse-Turned-Patient's Resource to Living Well with Autoimmune Disease, Melissa provides her medical and nursing expertise by explaining some of the numerous autoimmune diseases and their symptoms, common testing (and what they mean), treatment options, as well as resources and practical tips to have a well-balanced and well-lived life while living with autoimmune disease.

Further, she wisely incorporated conversations from the director of the Scleroderma Program at Yale University and several patients with various autoimmune diseases to share their expertise and experience. Her dedication to her craft, her caring spirit, and her desire to help others in a similar situation are all examples of how she continues to live well while living with currently incurable diseases.. |
| autoimmune bible: The Bible and Posthumanism Jennifer L. Koosed, 2014-03-31 What does it mean, and what should it mean to be human? In this collection of essays, scholars place the philosophies and theories of animal studies and posthumanism into conversation with biblical studies. Authors cross and disrupt boundaries and categories through close readings of stories where the human body is invaded, possessed, or driven mad. Articles explore the ethics of the human use of animals and the biblical contributions to the question. Other essays use the image of lions—animals that appear not only in the wild, but also in the Bible, ancient Near Eastern texts, and philosophy—to illustrate the potential these theories present for students of the Bible. Contributors George Aichele, Denise Kimber Buell, Benjamin H. Dunning, Heidi Epstein, Rhiannon Graybill, Jennifer L. Koosed, Eric Daryl Meyer, Stephen D. Moore, Hugh Pyper, Robert Paul Seesengood, Yvonne Sherwood, Ken Stone, and Hannah M. Strømmen present an open invitation for further work in the field of posthumanism. Features: Coverage of texts that explore the boundaries between animal, human, and divinity Discussion of the term posthumanism and how it applies to biblical studies Essays engage Derrida, Foucault, Wolfe, Lacan, Žižek, Singer, Haraway, and others |
| autoimmune bible: My Myasthenia Gravis Stephen Lau, 2014-02-19 Myasthenia gravis is one of the many autoimmune diseases, which, according to contemporary Western medicine, offer no known cure, except controlling or suppressing their many disease symptoms. This book is based on the author's own experience of battling against his myasthenia gravis: how he stopped all his medications through a holistic approach to controlling and managing the disease. This book provides insight and well-researched information that he would like to share with those who are afflicted with myasthenia gravis or any other autoimmune disease. Albert Einstein once said: There are two ways to live: you can live as if nothing is a miracle; you can live as if everything is a miracle. Believe in the miracle of self-healing. Healing comes only from within, and not from any external source. Every individual should avail every opportunity to initiate the self-healing process, which is innate in the human body. Just believing in the miracle of self-cure, however, is not enough; you must also empower yourself with knowledge and information to overcome myasthenia gravis through a holistic approach to the wellness of the body, the mind, and the spirit. This book covers every aspect of holistic health to cope with autoimmunity: body detox, diet, lifestyle changes, exercises for muscle weakness, and mental relaxation techniques for vision problems associated with myasthenia gravis. The human body experiences a powerful gravitational pull in the direction of hope. That is why the patient's hopes are the physician's secret weapon. They are the hidden ingredients in any prescription. (Norman Cousins) Find your own ingredients in your prescription for a cure of your myasthenia gravis. |
| autoimmune bible: Novel Treatment Strategies for Thyroid Autoimmunity and Thyroid Cancer Artur Bossowski, , Jadwiga Maria Furmaniak, Malgorzata Gabriela Wasniewska, 2024-09-20 Thyroid autoimmunity is a common condition in which the immune system mistakenly attacks the thyroid gland, leading to inflammation and damage to the gland. This can result in a range of thyroid pathologies, including hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism. The prevalence of thyroid autoimmunity is increasing worldwide, and it is more common in women than in men. Recent advances in research on thyroid autoimmunity and pathology have improved our understanding of the mechanisms underlying the development of autoimmune thyroid disease and have identified new targets for therapeutic interventions. These advances have also led to improvements in treatment strategies for patients with thyroid autoimmunity. This Research Topic welcomes contributions of any type (clinical trial, correction, editorial, general commentary, hypothesis & theory, methods, mini review, opinion, original research, perspective, policy and practice reviews, review, study protocol, systematic review, technology and code) on topics around recent studies on new treatment strategies for patients with thyroid autoimmunity, thyroid orbitopathy and selected thyroid cancer. |
| autoimmune bible: P.A.N.D.A.S. hope for healing William Cook, 2022-11-03 What if we haven't been told everything about PANDAS/PANS? What if there is more? What if there was an alternative method to support complete and lasting recovery? PANDAS Hope for Healing is a practical tool to help you rescue your child from the diagnosis of PANDAS/PANS. Pediatric Autoimmune Neuropsychiatric Disorder Associated with Strep is a debilitating disorder that currently affects one out of two hundred children. It's a frightening diagnosis and condition that can literally change the life of a child and their parents overnight. We know because we lived this nightmare. The fear and uncertainty of searching for recovery is something we know well. We also know what it is like to suffer in silence. We are neither doctors nor healthcare providers. We are parents of a child diagnosed with PANDAS who fought for his recovery and, thankfully, won the battle. Our son completely recovered from PANDAS, and has lived PANDAS free for close to 10 years. This book is his true story of healing and the story of how we got here. It is a product of ten years of personal research, reading everything I could find, and asking more questions than I can count. It is part personal journal and part reference guide. I wrote it to help bring awareness and practical solutions to this condition that is affecting way too many children and to bring you hope. This book is meant to tell you our true story of real recovery, to help open your mind to alternative wellness, and to provide you with hope that PANDAS/PANS does not have to be permanent for you either if you give the body the tools to put this disorder, back in order. If you are like so many others and your child is still languishing and has not received recovery through the conventional medical route, I encourage you to read this book. This book is for you if you or someone you know is living with a child with PANDAS/PANS, you are ready to fight for your child's recovery, or you just need some encouragement and an infusion of hope. This is our true story of real recovery, renewal, and restoration. This is our story of PANDAS HOPE for HEALING. |
