Question:

Would taking a substance to enhance immunity also aggravate an auto immune disorder?

My mom keeps pushing that beta glucan stuff on me, but I think I feel worse. Stiffness of leg ligaments and some arthritic pain in my fingers. What do you think?? I haven't been diagnosed with anything except hypothyroidism and vitiligo, but still I wonder about these supplements.

  2. I have Hashimotos Hypothyroidism, MS and mild Lupus.  Last year, in January my mum bought me some Olive Leaf Extract to 'enhance my immunity'.  

    I ended up with severe gastric reflux,  ulcers, abdominal infection for about 5 months, a severe kidney infection, infection in my long thoracic nerve resulting in a brachial plexus neuritis - paralysed muscles in shoulder, a chest infection that bordered on pneumonia.

    I was on antibiotics for about 6 months of the year.

    It wasn't worth it.

    Don't do it.
