Chronic illnesses always involve an impaired immune system due to environmental and other stresses, leading to suppression of the immune system and the resultant overgrowth of internal fungal infection, the mycotoxins released by the fungus causing further damage to the immune system and other organ systems. For more information, go to: www.knowthecause.com
There also may be other internal low grade infections involved, so a course of Mesosilver is highly advised. Order on home page.
