Autoimmune Disease

Autoimmune diseases, encompassing over 80 disorders including Rheumatoid arthritis, type 1 diabetes, psoriasis, Hashimoto’s, and inflammatory bowel disease, affect millions worldwide. With cases on the rise since 1939, traditional medicine has employed medications and biologic drugs to control disease flares, limit inflammatory damage, and extend periods of remission. At Wisconsin Institute of Functional Medicine, we employ a functional medicine approach that aims to not only manage these conditions but to optimize your health, reduce your dependency on medications, and improve your quality of life through tailored nutrition and lifestyle modifications.
