•
Cohen presents the molecular mimicry theory: environmental chemicals structurally resemble human proteins, confusing the immune system into attacking the body's own tissues — driving the 300% increase in autoimmune disease since the 1970s.
•
Cohen explains that intestinal permeability (leaky gut), caused by toxins and poor diet, allows environmental chemicals into the bloodstream where they trigger the autoimmune cascade.
