What is Autoimmune disease?
A condition known as an autoimmune illness occurs when the body’s natural defense system is unable to distinguish between its cells and foreign cells, leading it to unintentionally attack healthy, normal cells.
Widespread autoimmune disease
Among the most common autoimmune diseases include lupus, type 1 diabetes, celiac disease, Hashimoto thyroiditis, Graves disease, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and psoriasis.
