Sarcoidosis Natural Treatment Options (Other)
Sarcoidosis in nature is an autoimmune disease and most people don’ truly understand what this means.
By the end of this article, you will learn about the nature of the disease, what are natural treatment options and about a recent breakthrough in natural treatment of sarcoidosis.
Autoimmunity is any disease where body is somehow ‘convinced’ that it’s sick and it needs to react. It then activates the immune system and puts it in ‘combat formation’ to fight a non-existent enemy.
That is all there is to. So, what are the natural treatment options?
Melatonin In Florence Italy, a study was conducted on the use of melatonin to treat sarcoidosis. After the 2 years case study, almost all patients have produced significant improvement and some were even symptom free.
What is Melatonin? It is a hormone that our body naturally produces and it regulates sleep primarily. That is why it’s levels peaks at 2 am. Melatonin also scavenges free radicals, enhances the production of sex steroids and reduces tumor growth.
Controversy over the Safety of Melatonin in Autoimmune Diseases This controversy is due to the fact that Melatonin actually, in it’s nature, boosts the immune system. Studies show that melatonin can inhibit cytokine production and reduce inflammation. Many researches are underway to look into whether it’s safe to use Melatonin in autoimmune disease.
Oil of Oregano Over the time, it was proven time and time again that oil of oregano has a potent anti-inflammatory effect (due to the presence of the terpenes – a natural anti-inflamatory agent). It is used in massage to relieve joint aches and in inhaling steam treatments for the breathing ways.
