What is Lupus?

Lupus is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system attacks healthy tissues in the body causing a wide range of health issues. The inflammatory aspect of the disease can affect the skin, hair, brain, joints, organs, and blood vessels.

Treating Lupus

Our clinic focuses on identifying and addressing the underlying root causes and factors which are causing your immune system to attack itself. By eliminating these causes, the disease process can enter remission.

Lupus Disease – Contributing Factors

The exact cause of lupus remains unknown, but research suggests a combination of environmental, genetic, and immune system triggers. At LifeWorks Wellness Center, we recognize that autoimmune diseases like lupus often stem from multiple factors, including:

1. Toxicity

Exposure to heavy metals, pesticides, and pollutants can disrupt immune function, trigger inflammation, and lead to autoimmune reactions.

2. Deficiencies

Low levels of essential nutrients—such as vitamin D, B12, and omega-3 fatty acids—can weaken immune defenses, increase inflammation, and worsen lupus symptoms.

3. Food Allergies & Sensitivities

Certain foods, including gluten, dairy, and soy, can provoke immune overactivity, leading to inflammation and symptom flare-ups.

4. Gut Health Issues

Leaky gut allows toxins and undigested particles to enter the bloodstream, triggering immune responses that contribute to lupus.

Lupus Disease Treatment

Our integrative approach addresses the root causes of lupus. A specialized doctor will assess your medical history, conduct functional tests, and order necessary labs to identify key triggers. Based on the findings, we create a personalized treatment plan designed to restore balance and improve overall health.
