INFORMATION ABOUT LUPUS:

Here is a little about lupus so you can know what kinds of things to promote at our event! Please keep these things in mind and if you're ever unsure about something always feel free to ask Cheryl or Brittany or refer people to us. 

 

Lupus is an autoimmune disease that can affect any organ in the body. The effects of lupus as well as medications frequently leads to many symptoms such as:

  • Joint Pain & loss of dexterity
  • Fatigue
  • Insomnia
  • Sensitive and easily irritated skin
  • Sun sensitivity
  • Temperature regulation issues 
  • Heat and cold intolerance
  • Brain fog & memory issues
  • Diet restriction

Important product points would be:

  • Organic/Clean
  • Holistic/Natural
  • Sensitive Friendly
  • Sun protectant
  • Comfortable 
  • Self-Care

Other important things to note:

·       The symbol for lupus is a butterfly, and the color is purple, so any way that can be incorporated will interest lupus warriors!

·       Anyone with an autoimmune disease cannot have any immune boosters such as elderberry or garlic.
