Autoimmune Disorder-Cause, Symptoms, Treatment and Diet

Our body has a defense system to protect us from harmful foreign cells. The immune system does this by producing antibodies that do the fight. But at times our immune system misunderstands our own harmless and starts attacking them. This self-attack leads to various discomforts starting from inflammation. This response of the immunity system results in autoimmune disorders.

Other than genetics, chronic stress can also increase the risk of autoimmune disorders.
