How can organic dried pineapple help in lupus and fibromyalgia?
As we all know our immune system is designed to fight against viruses, foreign substances that the body considered dangerous. This is what can normally occur in any organism of living beings. However, there are diseases that make the immune system work against you. One of them is: lupus.
Lupus is a disease that affects and attacks the cells of our body, but focuses on tissues that are healthy. In other words, our own body weakens and destroys healthy cells, which can cause damage to the joints, skin, kidneys, lungs, brain, among others.
There are several types of lupus that include: lupus that causes a rash on the skin. There is other type that causes sores on parts of the body exposed to the sun; also a type of lupus that is caused by medicine that people may consume for other purposes and another type of lupus that affects newborns.
Usually, lupus affects women of Hispanic, Asian, African American or Native American descent, but anyone can have it since the causes of this disease are still unknown. Some celebrities like Selena Gomez suffer this disease. They manage to work, control their symptoms but sometimes when the symptoms appear they have to focus in their health in order to control them.
There are people who do not know they have lupus, but some of the symptoms are: pain or inflammation in the joints and muscles, fever, rash, hair loss, purple fingers or toes, sun sensitivity, ulcers, tiredness, anemia, headache, dizziness, among others. Symptoms may appear and disappear periodically.
To be able to diagnose it, the medical history must be analyzed; also the doctor needs to do blood tests, skin and kidney biopsy, among others. If you are already diagnosed with lupus it is very important to be informed about your illness and the impact it can have on your daily life. Be alert for signs of a possible outbreak to prevent it or reduce symptoms. As well as periodically visit your doctor in case you feel more tired, have pains, fever or rash and be alert to have in the future a good quality of life.
Some studies are currently in investigation in order to determine the causes of lupus, identify genes that define that it is likely to have that disease, how it affects different organs, as well as various treatments to combat it. Unfortunately, a cure for this disease is not yet available. However, people with this disease can have a normal life. Some findings mention that physical exercise and relaxing activities like yoga can help to deal with the stress that this disease produces.
Another disease that still rare because we don´t know the causes or cure is fibromyalgia.
Fibromyalgia is a disease where chronic pain is experienced throughout the body for more than three months. The causes of this disease are unknown. However, there are theories that it is originated from an alteration in pain transmitters since there are muscle and bone pains.
Muscle pain is one of the most common symptoms and occurs in a chronic way. It is a pain that causes confusion because you do not know the reason or what is causing it; affecting several parts of the body at the same time. This pain in fibromyalgia can be caused by stimuli that are not painful (like touching something or lying down), they present a pain that is more intense than normal and lasts longer. For example, by striking with something or falling down the have more pain that regular people.
One of the most known symptoms is fatigue or chronic tiredness. The person feels tired all the time, they also have insomnia, causing more stress. They may also have swelling, cramps or involuntary movements. This disease is also characterized by sleep disorders, cognitive impairment, anxiety, depression and symptoms of gastrointestinal disorders such as irritable intestine.
Fibromyalgia has no cure. However, there are treatments that can mitigate pain and symptoms. There are studies that ensure that consistent aerobic physical exercise and psychological treatment help patients tolerate or reduce the pain. Today, people with this disease have a normal life, the danger of not detecting it is that the quality of life can decrease as time passes and this disease could become a disability that might cause them to be unable to work.
