The Coimbra Protocol: A Breakthrough for Autoimmune Diseases

🔍Patients with autoimmune diseases often have a resistance to the effects of vitamin D.

💉Dr. Coimbra found that higher doses of vitamin D are required to raise vitamin D levels in patients with autoimmune diseases.

🩺Vitamin D acts as an immune system regulator, calming down an overactive immune response in autoimmune conditions.

🌞Factors such as skin color, age, obesity, and low sun exposure can contribute to vitamin D deficiency and resistance.

🔬The Coimbra Protocol involves high doses of vitamin D and monitoring parathyroid hormone levels to achieve optimal results.

What is the Coimbra Protocol?

—The Coimbra Protocol is a treatment approach for autoimmune diseases developed by Dr. Coimbra. It involves high doses of vitamin D and close monitoring of parathyroid hormone levels to regulate the immune system and reduce inflammation.

How does vitamin D help with autoimmune diseases?

—Vitamin D acts as an immune system regulator and has anti-inflammatory effects. It can help calm down an overactive immune response in autoimmune conditions, providing relief and improving symptoms.

Are high doses of vitamin D safe?

—When taken under the guidance of a healthcare professional familiar with the Coimbra Protocol, high doses of vitamin D have been shown to be safe. Regular monitoring of parathyroid hormone levels helps ensure the dosage is appropriate for each individual.

How long does it take to see results with the Coimbra Protocol?

—Results can vary depending on the individual and the specific autoimmune condition. Generally, it takes about two months to see consistent changes in blood levels, with adjustments made over the course of two years to achieve optimal stability.

Is the Coimbra Protocol a substitute for conventional treatments for autoimmune diseases?

—The Coimbra Protocol offers an alternative approach to traditional treatments for autoimmune diseases. It is important to work with a healthcare professional experienced in the protocol to weigh the risks and benefits and determine the most suitable course of treatment for each individual.
