In his foreword to The Autoimmune Epidemic, Dr. Douglas Kerr, M.D., Ph.D. professor at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, says that âthere is no doubt that autoimmune diseases are on the rise and our increasing environmental exposure to toxins and chemicals is fueling the risk.The research is sound.ut autoimmune disease isnât just one condition.

Autoimmune hepatitis is a disease in which the bodyâs own immune system attacks the liver and causes it to become inflamed. The disease is chronic, meaning it lasts many years.If untreated, it can lead to cirrhosis and liver failure. There are two forms of this disease.our immune system normally attacks bacteria, viruses and other invading organisms. It is not supposed to attack your own cells; if it does, the response is called autoimmunity. In autoimmune hepatitis, your immune system attacks your liver cells, causing long-term inflammation and liver damage.
