5 Root Causes of Autoimmune Disease That Traditional Medicine Often Misses
Autoimmune & Inflammatory Health
When you live with an autoimmune or chronic inflammatory condition, every day can feel like a mystery. You may look fine on the outside, yet your body feels like it's fighting an invisible battle within.
For many people, traditional medicine focuses on symptom control—medications to suppress the immune system, pain management, and lab numbers. But at Transcend Health Mind and Body, we believe true healing begins when you understand why your body is inflamed in the first place.
1. Gut Imbalances — The Hidden Immune Trigger
Over 70% of your immune system lives in your gut. When the microbiome becomes unbalanced—due to infections, stress, medications, or diet—the immune system can mistake your own tissues for invaders. Healing often starts with restoring gut integrity and microbial diversity.
2. Chronic Infections & Toxin Exposure
Lingering infections (like Epstein-Barr virus or mold exposure) can keep the immune system on constant alert. Likewise, toxins from food, water, or the environment may overwhelm the body's detox systems. Identifying and clearing these stressors is essential for calming inflammation.
3. Hormonal & Nutrient Imbalances
Low vitamin D, poor thyroid function, and depleted minerals like magnesium or zinc all weaken immune regulation. Precision testing helps us uncover these silent deficiencies—then correct them to restore balance.
4. Stress & Nervous System Overload
Emotional and physical stress aren't just "in your head." They raise cortisol, suppress repair mechanisms, and drive immune chaos. Mind-body therapies and meditation help reset this vital system so your body can finally exhale and heal.
5. Mitochondrial Dysfunction — Energy Breakdown at the Cellular Level
When your cells can't produce energy efficiently, inflammation increases and repair slows. Supporting mitochondrial health through peptides, nutrition, and detoxification restores vitality at the source.
Dr. Trinh Tran's Insight:
"You can't suppress your way to health—you must uncover what's underneath the inflammation."
