The foods you eat make a huge difference in the frequency and severity of flare-ups. Steady dietary changes can help you reach your optimal self.

Why?

Estrogen & Autoimmunity

autoimmunity el paso tx.

  • The greatest association with autoimmune diseases is the female gender
  • 17‐beta estradiol seems to play a role in activating T cells in autoimmune disease
  • T cells have ER‐alpha receptors that are activated by 17‐beta estradiol resulting in the production of inflammatory cytokines
  • Blocking ER‐alpha receptors may have a beneficial effect on autoimmune activation
