ST. LOUIS, March 19, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- A new research case series published in Frontiers in Nutrition presents food as medicine as a potential treatment for autoimmune diseases, describing three patients with chronic autoimmune disease who showed remarkable improvement after following a predominantly raw dietary pattern high in cruciferous vegetables and omega 3 fatty acids.
Key Points:
- ST. LOUIS, March 19, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- A new research case series published in Frontiers in Nutrition presents food as medicine as a potential treatment for autoimmune diseases, describing three patients with chronic autoimmune disease who showed remarkable improvement after following a predominantly raw dietary pattern high in cruciferous vegetables and omega 3 fatty acids.
- All three women reported that nearly all their symptoms of both diseases resolved after just four weeks of making the dietary changes.
- "My hope is that these cases generate greater recognition, making patients and clinicians aware of food as medicine as a treatment option for systemic lupus erythematosus and Sjögren's syndrome.
- This case series also reflects the immediate need for more research into dietary changes as a potential treatment strategy for autoimmune disease."
