TLDR High-dose vitamin D and an anti-inflammatory diet may help improve symptoms in autoimmune conditions like SLE and AA.
This case report describes a 35-year-old female patient with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) and Alopecia Areata (AA) who experienced significant improvement after following the LGS Protocol, which includes a high dose of vitamin D and an anti-inflammatory diet. Initially treated with hydroxychloroquine, methotrexate, and prednisone, the patient saw improvement in SLE symptoms but later relapsed and developed AA. Intralesional corticosteroid injections provided temporary hair regrowth, but a more intense AA relapse occurred 20 months later. After starting the LGS Protocol, the patient reported reduced joint pain within three weeks and noticeable hair growth after four months, achieving complete remission after one year. This case suggests the potential effectiveness of the LGS Protocol in treating autoimmune conditions like SLE and AA.
