How to Treat Lupus Naturally

Lupus is an autoimmune disorder where the body attacks its own connective tissue, or collagen. Symptoms include achy joints, fever, nausea, facial rash, and more. Safer drugs have become available to combat lupus but steroids can cause damage to the liver, eyes and bones. However, there is a natural treatment still available today.
