Autoimmunity and Allergies

Autoimmunity is the system of immune responses of an organism against its own healthy cells and tissues. Any disease that results from such immune response is termed an "autoimmune disease”. In an autoimmune disease, the immune system mistakes part of your body as foreign. It releases proteins called autoantibodies that attack healthy cells. Allergies, are a number of conditions caused by hypersensitivity of the immune system to typically harmless substances in the environment.  Allergy symptoms occur when your immune system overreacts to an allergen.
