Reddit reviews The Autoimmune Epidemic: Bodies Gone Haywire in a World Out of Balance--and the Cutting-Edge Science that Promises Hope

I'm unsure which type I have, but type 4 is one of the suspects. I don't have adequate healthcare, but I research the ever loving shit out of everything. My mom is also a nurse and I went to school with her while she became one (I was a well behaved kid who was home-schooled at the time). Anyway, I'm good at understanding medical stuff and health stuff.



So much of this is about your diet, and getting the right amounts of key nutrients and vitamins. I had horrible endometriosis like symptoms before going dairy free. My older brother was in a wheelchair before he went gluten free. He has chiari and a whole slew of other stuff, including endometriosis before having his ovaries taken out (he's transgender, if you hadn't).



I'm the youngest, so that could explain a lot of the reasons I'm the healthiest, but I also eat like some kind of freak. Gluten free, diary free, mostly vegan, no corn/canola oil, high omega 3, low omega 6, etc etc. Each of these choices are based on hundreds of hours of research. I also recommend this book (amazon link, but I'm sure you can pirate the pdf) to help understand environment. Look into epigenetics if you want to have a little fun. Make sure to drink a ton of water and many people take salt pills too :D



Just opinions. Good luck. Oh! And deff see if you have a group that meets in your area, I've found that helpful in unexpected ways.
