Gary Brecka argues that 87-90% of autoimmune diseases labeled idiopathic actually have identifiable triggers: mold, parasites, viruses, and heavy metals. Mainstream medicine ignores these causes and lacks testing protocols to find them. He points to biologic dentistry as a way to reduce immune activation and prevent autoimmune disease.
As it stands now, about 87 to 90% of all autoimmune disease is idiopathic. So you're led to believe that you just woke up one day and your immune system turned on the thyroid, so now you have Hashimoto's. Turned on the colon, you have Crohn's disease. It began to attack the myelin sheath of the nerve and now you have multiple sclerosis. We know now that the immune system just doesn't show up for no reason. The major reasons why the immune system is called to that site is mold mycotoxin, parasite, virus, and heavy metal. These are not talked about in the medical literature. Very few doctors even know how to test or even look for these, much less how to treat them. This is why I'm so excited about the movement of biologic dentistry. It's not just to clean up the oral cavity, but it's the implications down the road.
