An autoimmune disease is a condition in which your immune system mistakenly attacks your body. The immune system normally guards against germs like bacteria and viruses. When it senses these foreign invaders, it sends out an army of fighter cells to attack them.
Autoimmune disease as stated by Health Line is a disease that develops when the immune system tries to defend the body from its own healthy cells. When this happens it is as if the body is at war with itself. Depending on the type of autoimmune disease it can affect multiple types of body tissue. Certain autoimmune diseases are also known to cause abnormal organ growth and changes in an organâs function. There are roughly 80 different kinds of autoimmune disease which can make many of them hard to differentiate between.
