Is there an application for autoimmune disease?
A. There is great promise that via EpiCor’s immunomodulator effect that the hyper-reactivity experienced by an individual with such conditions may become moderated. Many of the traditional prescription medications used to help control the symptoms of these conditions are targeted at suppressing the immune system responsiveness. The evidence points to EpiCor’s ability to increase the efficiency of inherent immunomodulatory processes in the body. Thus, a trial of EpiCor while being monitored by a personal physician seems reasonable. In my clinical practice, I recommend that all my patients with autoimmune disease take a food allergy test as well. By identifying and eliminating food allergens/sensitivities the immune irritants that could otherwise up regulate immune reactivity can be avoided.
