From mid-1800s onward, life expectancy at birth doubled every 10 generations due to improved healthcare, sanitation, immunizations, access to clean water, and better nutrition, from 35-40y of age to
approximately 79 y as of date. The physical body has evolved to sustain optimal health till about 40-50 years old when biological hormonal changes create metabolic stress, turnover along with genetic senescence, reactive oxygen species damage and effects of general ageing leads to an overall deterioration often making one susceptible to autoimmune disorders. This is also determined and impacted by our emotional and psychosocial wellbeing during our earlier phase in life. Add to this milieu, the conundrum of miasms, genetic (familial) inheritance and environmental stressors, and you have an active fomenting arena of autoimmune disorder plaguing human beings at all stages of their life due to the precariously balanced immune system failing to maintain and sustain an optimal balance in chronic, painful, and debilitating autoimmune conditions. Properly selected homeopathic remedies by itself or conjointly with conventional approaches has much promise in alleviating chronic sufferings in individuals with autoimmune disorders. Dr Arup will elaborate with some real cases from his practice, the potential of homeopathic approaches in causing long term remission, improving quality of life and alleviating pain in several autoimmune disorders including cancer where the immune system fails to act against our own rogue mutated cells.
