Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE)
In Ayurveda, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is understood as a chronic autoimmune disorder where the body's immune system mistakenly attacks its own tissues, leading to inflammation and damage across multiple organs. At esreveR Specialty Ayurveda Center, we specialize in tailored Ayurvedic treatments to effectively manage SLE.
Ayurvedic Understanding of SLE
Dosha Imbalance:
- Pitta and Vata Imbalance: Disruptions in Pitta and Vata doshas contribute to inflammatory responses and immune system dysregulation.
Pathophysiology Simplified:
- Genetic Predisposition: Certain genetic factors increase susceptibility to SLE.
- Environmental Triggers: Factors such as UV radiation, infections, and hormonal changes trigger imbalances in the body's defences.
- Immune System Disturbance: The immune system produces antibodies that mistakenly target healthy tissues, causing inflammation and tissue damage.
- Formation of Toxic Deposits: These antibodies create toxic deposits (ama) in tissues, perpetuating chronic inflammation.
