What role does diet play in autoimmune diseases?
Diet plays a most important role in autoimmune diseases, both what to avoid and what to eat. Avoid all sugars and foods containing sugars, preservatives and colourants. Also avoid cool drinks, alcohol and fruit-juices. Reduce animal fats and salt intake to a minimum. Preferably drink Rooibos and herbal teas without milk and sugar, rather than coffee.
