Are there different types of autoimmune diseases?
Yes — there are over 80 different autoimmune conditions, and no two are exactly the same.
Some are organ-specific, like Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (thyroid) or Type 1 diabetes (pancreas). Others are systemic, like Rheumatoid Arthritis, Lupus, Multiple Sclerosis, Psoriasis, Crohn’s disease, and Ulcerative Colitis, affecting multiple systems in the body.
But here’s what many people aren’t told:
Autoimmune disease isn’t random.
It’s often driven by underlying immune dysregulation influenced by gut health, food sensitivities, chronic inflammation, nutrient deficiencies, environmental triggers, and stress.
That’s why at Primary Prevention Center, we don’t just suppress symptoms — we investigate root causes using advanced, lab-driven testing.
🔬 IgG Food Explorer Testing
Identifies delayed food sensitivities that may be triggering immune flare-ups, joint pain, fatigue, skin issues, or brain fog.
🦠 GI-MAP (Comprehensive Gut Analysis)
Because the majority of your immune system lives in your gut. We evaluate microbiome balance, pathogens, inflammation markers, and intestinal permeability (“leaky gut”) — all critical in autoimmune conditions.
🧪 Organic Acid Testing (OAT)
Gives us insight into mitochondrial function, detox pathways, oxidative stress, nutrient status, and hidden microbial overgrowth that can perpetuate immune dysfunction.
When we calm the gut, reduce inflammatory triggers, and optimize cellular function, the immune system often follows.
If you’re living with an autoimmune diagnosis — or unexplained fatigue, pain, or inflammation — and you feel like you’ve only been offered symptom management, it may be time for a deeper evaluation.
