Autoimmunity is a condition in which an organism's immune system destroys its own healthy cells, tissues and other natural components. Autoimmune diseases are caused by the immune system wrongly attacking your own body. Achy muscles, hair loss, swelling, numbness in the hands and feet, skin rashes, and weakness are all early signs of autoimmunity. Some immune conditions have their own distinct set of symptoms. The pandemic has already wreaked havoc on the planet, killing countless people. Furthermore, winter is a season when the immune system weakens, putting you at risk of infection from infectious diseases such as the common cold and flu. However, a well-balanced diet combined with regular exercise will significantly boost your immune system. Type 1 diabetes is caused by the body's inability to produce insulin on its own. High blood sugar can harm blood vessels as well as organs like the heart, kidneys, eyes, and nerves. RA is an autoimmune disease that mainly affects the joints over time. The joints become red, sore, and rigid as a result of this assault. This lowers the number of red blood cells in the body and causes inflammation around the lungs and heart. Skin cells normally develop and then shed when they are no longer required, but Psoriasis causes skin cells to multiply faster than normal. These extra cells build up and cause inflamed red patches on the skin, which are also accompanied by silverwhite plaque scales. While there is no permanent cure for auto-immune diseases, treatment can control the overactive immune response and minimise inflammation, or at the very least reduce pain and inflammation
