Lupus in alternative natural medicine

According to the natural law of duality (where expansion = yin, contraction = yang), lupus is an expansive illness (tends to spread, skin lesions and rashes, joint aches). Lupus is triggered by a passing illness, a virus or a crisis. But the underlying cause of lupus, like most illnesses, is the accumulation of faulty eating habits that violate the natural law of duality and produce imbalance and lowered immunity. Lupus is an illness of the third, fourth & fifth stage among the seven stages of illness. Lupus is directly related to the liver, so the kidneys-lungs should also be considered in natural treatment. Kidneys-lungs are mother-father of the liver in the five elements theory of natural medicine.

Lupus natural treatment and natural alternative cure

Food is best natural treatment. Foods affect lupus positively or adversely depending on their type. Foods that restore natural balance cure lupus naturally without side effects. Lupus is expansive, and foods that cause expansion (Sugar, parsley, lettuce and vitamin C, etc.) will make lupus worse and cause it to spread. Foods that cause contraction will naturally cure lupus and restore the body's immunity. With the right diet, lupus can be cured completely. It takes several months to cure lupus depending on its severity and type.
