These studies collectively suggest a complex interplay between oral health and gut inflammation, highlighting the need for comprehensive healthcare approaches that consider both oral and gut health.

Living with lupus can be a challenge, but the good news is that, with the proper healthcare guidance, you can still live a full life through effective management. Lupus is a rheumatic condition, which means that it is an autoimmune disease. In autoimmune disorders, the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks healthy tissues, perceiving them as foreign invaders. This can cause painful inflammation, and the ongoing battle within the body can result in various symptoms ranging from manageable to life-threatening. The unpredictability of lupus is one of its defining characteristics, as symptoms can appear, disappear, and change over time. Curious to know the root of your symptoms?
