0:00.0	What are some of the more prevalent signs of autoimmunity?
0:04.5	Fatigue, brain fog, joint pain, rashes, and digestive problems.
0:09.8	This could indicate inflammation and or autoimmunity in various tissues of the body.
0:29.3	Welcome to Dr. Rucho Radio, providing practical and science-based solutions to feeling your best.
0:36.8	To stay up to date on the latest topics, as well as all of our prior episodes, make sure to subscribe in your podcast player.
0:40.1	For weekly updates, visit Dr.rucio.com.
0:46.9	Now, as you may already know, autoimmune it can be loosely defined as when your immune system attacks tissue of your own body that it shouldn't. And this can result in a number of conditions
0:53.1	like psoriasis, eczema, rheumatoid arthritis.
0:56.7	There's even discussion that certain neurological conditions like brain fog and MCI or mild kind of impairment may actually be underlied by autoimmunity.
1:07.7	And of course, there are certain autoimmune conditions of the gut, which is one of the
1:11.7	main areas we want to look to for the potential cause of autoimmunity. Now, the way this tends to
1:19.1	play out is dysbiosis in the gut or disruption of the ecosystem, namely by the bacteria and fungi that live there, leads to leaky gut.
1:32.1	When the gut is leaky, meaning it's overly porous, you can have translocation of various particles
1:38.8	from the gut into your circulation, into the bloodstream, and this activates the immune system.
1:46.8	So dysbiosis, essentially through this domino rally, leads to an imbalance in the immune system.
1:55.2	There's a very interesting paper from the journal Frontiers in Immunology that gives a nice schematic or a kind of flow of how
2:03.3	this domino cascade effect works. What you're looking at here all the way over to the left,
2:09.9	the start of the flow, is symbiosis, sometimes also described as ubiosis, meaning things are
2:17.1	healthy. The things are healthy.
2:18.8	The ecosystem is healthy.
2:21.9	The ratios of bacteria are as they should be.
2:23.7	The immune system is calm. And essentially the garden or the rainforest that is this dense ecosystem is one of health and balance or eubiosis.
