‘Vital’ Vitamin Duo STOPS Autoimmune Diseases?!

By Jack Taylor Posted February 14, 2022

If you or a loved one suffers from an autoimmune disease (any disease where your body’s immune system attacks healthy cells), you know firsthand that an ‘attack’ can come out of nowhere and put you on the sidelines. 

But even if you haven’t been ‘diagnosed’ with an autoimmune disease, the prevalence of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), lupus, celiac disease, and even multiple sclerosis (MS) is starting to increase – especially if you’re over the age of 50. 

In fact, recent research has found that the risk of an autoimmune disease is 50% higher in older adults today compared to 25 years ago! 

And unfortunately treating any autoimmune disease is complicated, expensive, and risky. 

Most mainstream docs treat autoimmune diseases with prescription drugs and injections that cost an arm and a leg, and come with a boatload of side effects. 

But thanks to some new research, reducing your risk of an autoimmune disease doesn’t mean you need to be a prisoner to expensive and complicated medications. 

In fact, the key to stopping debilitating autoimmune diseases could be as simple as a harnessing the benefits of this ‘vital’ vitamin duo. 

Let me explain… 

According to a new study from Brigham and Women’s Hospital, vitamin D and omega 3 fatty acid supplements could reduce your chance of developing an autoimmune disease. 

It’s widely known that both vitamin D and omega 3 fatty acids come with all sorts of health benefits, but what makes this duo so special? 

It boils down to their INFLAMMATION-REDUCING power –the main precursor of autoimmune diseases.  

During a five-year vitamin D and omega 3 trial – dubbed ‘VITAL’ by the study leaders – researchers found that folks who took both supplements significantly reduced their risk of being diagnosed with an autoimmune disease… 

By as much as 22%! 

That may not seem like a lot, but considering how common autoimmune diseases are becoming – especially in older adults – the impacts of this vitamin duo are nothing to scoff at.  

Both vitamin D and omega 3 fatty acids are easy to find at health food stores, and even at your local pharmacy or grocery store.  

If you’re considering supplementing with either, be sure to only take the recommended dosage on the product label, and have a discussion with your doctor – especially if you’re starting to experience any signs of an autoimmune disease.
