World's 1st Trusted Ayurvedic Allergy Institute

Introduction

Autoimmune disease is a medical condition where the body attacks its own cells. Usually, white blood cells secrete antibodies that attack microorganisms and other harmful substances in the body. In autoimmune diseases, the antibodies attack healthy tissues in the body instead of harmful cells. This can affect different parts of the body like the joints, internal organs, and skin.

IAFA provides effective treatment for autoimmune disorders that affect the skin and other body parts. Ayurveda explains this spectrum of disorders under Kushta.
