Autoimmune disorders are skyrocketing, leaving millions struggling with fatigue, brain fog, pain, gut issues, and inflammation yet few answers.
Most traditional treatments aim to suppress the immune system. At Body Tonic, we take a different approach. We ask the deeper question:
Why is the immune system overreacting in the first place?
The answer often lies in the roots of imbalance hidden micronutrient deficiencies, sluggish methylation pathways, and toxin overload from our modern environment. Together, these factors can hijack your immune system and turn it against your own tissues.
Your body is an intricate biochemical machine, constantly repairing DNA, detoxifying waste, and regulating immunity. These processes depend on micronutrients and when they’re depleted, inflammation thrives.
Key deficiencies commonly linked to autoimmune disease include:
When methylation slows down, your system can’t clear toxins efficiently or silence inflammatory genes. Genetic variants like MTHFR or COMT can exacerbate this, but environmental stress, poor nutrition, and chronic illness often play the larger role.
Micronutrients and methylation are only part of the puzzle. Many autoimmune disorders are actually the immune system’s response to chronic toxin exposure.
Hidden mold in homes or workplaces can release potent mycotoxins that suppress mitochondrial function, dysregulate hormones, and trigger immune overactivation. Over time, these toxins mimic infection — keeping your immune system in a state of chaos.
Heavy metals accumulate in tissues and can block methylation pathways, interfere with thyroid hormones, and disrupt cellular signaling. They also create oxidative stress that damages the gut and brain — both central players in immune regulation.
Parasitic infections, especially intestinal parasites, can create a constant inflammatory response. They steal nutrients, release neurotoxins, and suppress detoxification. Chronic or hidden infections (like H. pylori, Lyme, or Epstein-Barr Virus) often serve as the “spark” that triggers autoimmune activation in a nutrient-depleted body.
Viruses like EBV, HSV, and CMV can stay dormant for years before reactivating under stress, low immunity, or toxicity. These viral flares often coincide with autoimmune flare-ups, as the immune system struggles to distinguish “self” from invader.
At Body Tonic, we don’t guess we test.
Using functional diagnostics, we identify your unique pattern of toxicity, inflammation, and deficiency, then design a customized plan to restore balance.
We use science-backed protocols to support drainage and detoxification at every level:
Once the drainage pathways are open and toxins are clearing, we focus on rebuilding:
GLP-1 medications like Semaglutide and Tirzepatide are revolutionizing medicine not only for weight management, but for reducing inflammation and repairing metabolic dysfunction, two key drivers of autoimmune disease.
When paired with detoxification and nutrient restoration, these peptides help reset your body at the cellular level, supporting balance, vitality, and long-term healing.
Our integrative approach merges functional medicine, peptide therapy, and targeted detoxification to help you achieve real, lasting results.
Your plan may include:
Autoimmune disease doesn’t happen overnight and it doesn’t have to define your future.
By addressing the root causes deficiencies, methylation blockages, and toxic overload your body can re-learn how to regulate itself, heal, and thrive.
At Body Tonic, we help patients move beyond symptom management into total transformation restoring the body’s natural intelligence, balance, and vitality through precision medicine, peptides, and detox therapies designed for optimal longevity.
