Gluten, Chronic Pain And Autoimmune Illness

Posted by Dr. Karl R.O.S. Johnson, DC on Fri, Jul 06, 2012

Modern medicine has given us many new technologies that have brought better health and longer life to many. However, modern medicine has also increased our reliance on the latest drugs for our maladies. Instead of finding the root causes of our illnesses, we simply treat the symptoms with pharmaceuticals.

Chronic pain and autoimmune illnesses rank among the top health concerns that we often treat with drugs rather than look for the underlying cause. These medications do not make illnesses go away. They merely mask the symptoms and can have serious side effects of their own leading to yet more drugs to treat those symptoms. And the cycle goes on and on. It seems there must be a better way to approach chronic pain and autoimmune illnesses than the rows and rows of pill bottles stacking up in our medicine cabinets.

Posted by Dr. Karl R.O.S. Johnson, DC on Sun, Feb 26, 2012

Every day, you and I are being exposed to materials that are toxic to our bodies in ways that can lead to major health issues at some point in the future. I wrote a post about how toxins (xylene) weakened my immune system so it could not get rid of warts on my foot. There are over 70,000 deadly industrial chemical toxins in our environment.
