Metals and all the other toxic exposures can trigger the immune system to turn on. When the immune system is constantly engaged and out for battle against these toxic substances, autoimmunity happens. Autoimmunity literally means the immune system is attacking itself.
National Institute of Health estimates up to 23.5 million Americans* have an Autoimmune Disease. In comparison, cancer affects up to 9 million and heart disease by up to 22 million. Additional information from National Institute of Health
