An Autoimmune disease is when the body mistakenly attacks its own tissue, mistaking it for a foreign substance. The body produces an oversupply of auto-antibodies normally reserved for invading viruses, bacteria or parasites, to attack its own healthy organs or tissues. Someone with an autoimmune disease therefore produces antibodies to its own organs for example antibodies to the thyroid or to the pancreas in Type 1 Diabetes, or to red blood cells in Pernicious Anemia to the joints in Rheumatoid Arthritis.

Celiac Disease is also an auto immune disease. There is an abnormal immune reaction where the body mistakenly sees the proteins found in ingested gluten as a foreign invader.
