Why is autoimmunity is increasing in the United States and worldwide? The rate of increase suggests environmental mechanisms. While genetics clearly play a role in autoimmunity, current research suggests that infectious disease, diet, toxic chemicals, and gut dysbiosis may be more to blame. This seminar will examine the current mechanisms for autoimmune disease, environmental triggers, and controversies associated with autoimmune disease.
