Autoimmune Disorders - Can Homeopathy Help?

When the immune system of the body reacts against the tissues of its own body, it is called an autoimmune disorder. To put it more dramatically, the body becomes its own enemy. The immune system of your body keeps fighting disease-causing germs and bacteria, but in rare cases, the immune system might malfunction and fight its own body causing different disorders. These disorders may be caused due to genetic issues or due to mutations. According to homeopathy, autoimmune disorders are a result of constant unhealthy lifestyle and diet. Homeopathy works at the root cause of the disease where it starts treating the malfunctioning immune system. Here is how homeopathy treats autoimmune disorders:

1. Toxin removal: Homeopathy starts working on removing the toxins from the body. Toxins or ama in the body interferes with the proper functioning of the immune system, which often leads to autoimmune diseases.

2. Metabolism correction: Not only will homeopathic medicines detoxify the body, but it will also correct the metabolism which gets messed up when afflicted with an autoimmune disorder. Neem, guggulu, guduchi, vasa, patola patra and ghrita are used to correct the metabolism.

3. Increase in ojus production: Ojus is the component which helps in the nourishment of the immune system. It is generally received from the food you eat. Due to dysfunctional immune system causing the impairment of metabolism, production of ojas decreases to almost nil. 

4. Immune system correction: Lastly, homeopathy works at correcting the immune system. If the immune system is not corrected, then the above treatment procedure will just be useless. Ghrita, haritaki, bahera, amalaki, ela and dadim are used generally to calm the immune system and rejuvenate it. They help correct the immune system for normal functioning.

Autoimmune disorders may not be easily treated, but that doesn't mean you cannot expect it to cure or witness a miracle. You just need some faith and confidence alongside proper treatment and you are ready to roll.
