Dr. Loren Cordain describes how the sudden and dramatic change in the human diet that has occurred in the past few thousand years may play a role in the origin and progression of autoimmune diseases, particularly multiple sclerosis.
Autoimmune disease may occur in genetically susceptible individuals through a process called “molecular mimicry.” This happens because specific amino acid sequences from foreign proteins such as bacteria, viruses, and certain foods, resemble amino acid sequences in our body’s organs and tissues. This similarity in molecular structure may confuse certain components of the immune system, resulting in the body attacking its own tissues.
If you currently have M.S., you will discover a program that may slow down and possibly even reverse the progression of your disease. You’ll learn how eating certain foods can cause these problematic proteins to enter your circulation, and how you may wish to adjust your own diet as part of your treatment protocol.
If you don’t currently suffer from autoimmune disease, you will learn how this program may reduce your risk of acquiring M.S. or other autoimmune diseases in the future.
“I can only say a tremendous thank you for the presentation about lectins and their involvement in the MS disease process. You made the science accessible and for the first time, I was able to grasp just how this complex system of immune activation might take place. As a person with M.S. I express my gratitude for your efforts.” – Julie Williamson, London, UK
Loren Cordain is the author of more than 100 peer-reviewed scientific articles and abstracts. His research into evolutionary basis of diet and disease has appeared in the world’s top scientific journals including the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, the British Journal of Nutrition, and the European Journal of Clinical Nutrition among others.
