Jeremy Cornish, LAc, said, “The immune system determines what is us and what is not us.”

Chlamydia is like a Trojan horse, surviving and spreading inside cells, dispersing cell fragments and abnormal proteins that confuse the immune system, and infecting immune cells. The infected and impaired immune system attacks infected cells, normal tissue (molecular mimicry), and generates inflammation that damages adjacent tissue.

Autoimmune disease is a war within, precipitated by immortal pathogens and an infected immune system, which is no longer able to reliably determine “us versus not us”.
