Auto-immune diseases are diseases that are of many different varieties. It includes lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn's disease, and more.

In this episode, we will look at auto-immune disease ontologically or its way of being. Our immune system protects us from foreign objects that can cause us harm.
