Factified!

The prevalence of autoimmune diseases has surged due to environmental and lifestyle changes, affecting 3,225 out of every 100,000 people. This significant increase contributes to both mortality and morbidity, with a one in five chance of developing an autoimmune disease in a lifetime. Women, individuals with genetic predispositions, and those exposed to specific pollutants face even higher risks. Chronic illnesses such as multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, and type 1 diabetes are among those requiring lifelong care.

Reasons Behind the Lags in Diagnosis and Treatment

• Complex and varying symptoms that can mimic other illnesses
• Non-specific initial symptoms and inconsistent manifestations
• Limited sensitivity or specificity of current diagnostic tests
• Referral delays and challenges in diagnosing co-existing conditions
• Limited treatment options and slow research and development

The Mystery of Autoimmune Illness

The mystery of autoimmune illnesses continues to unfold. Whether stress or stress-related disorders play a significant role remains speculative. An even more intriguing question is whether treating these stress-induced psychological conditions could potentially prevent autoimmune diseases. We eagerly anticipate a clinical trial to explore this fascinating possibility and uncover new pathways for prevention and treatment.
