Know Your Autoantibody Status. It Matters. A LOT.

If you’ve been diagnosed with Myasthenia Gravis (MG), one of the most important things you can know is your autoantibody status. This isn’t just medical trivia — it directly impacts which treatments may work best for you.

MG is not one-size-fits-all which is why it is referred to as the snowflake disease.

Why antibody testing is critical:

MG is caused by autoantibodies that interfere with communication between nerves and muscles. Different antibodies affect the body in different ways — and today’s treatments are increasingly targeted to specific antibodies.

Knowing your antibody type helps:
• Guide treatment decisions
• Avoid medications that may be less effective
• Identify eligibility for newer, targeted therapies
• Support informed conversations with your neurologist
• Empower YOU as an active participant in your care
✔ Ask your neurologist which MG antibodies you’ve been tested for
✔ Request copies of your lab results for your records
✔ If testing was done years ago, ask if updated testing is appropriate
✔ Advocate for yourself — informed patients get better care

Just pressed this sunny blend and it tastes delicious. Carrots, orange, tangerine, blueberries, and a hint of cinnamon come together for a vibrant, nutrient-packed drink you’ll want to sip all day.

What’s in this juice❓
- 32 oz Organic Carrots
- 4 Organic Orange
- 4 Tangerine
- 1/4 cup Blueberries
- 1 tablespoon Cinnamon

Potential benefits

Here’s what this combination can offer:

▶️ Carrots
- Rich in beta-carotene (vitamin A) for eye health and immune support.
- Fiber supports digestion and helps with satiety.
- Antioxidants may help protect cells from oxidative stress.

▶️Orange and Tangerine
- High in vitamin C, supporting immune function and skin health.
- Flavonoids that may have anti-inflammatory properties.
- Natural sweetness without added sugar, plus hydration.

▶️ Blueberries
- Potent antioxidants (anthocyanins) linked to brain health and reduced inflammation.
- May support cardiovascular health and help with memory function.
- Low in calories yet high in nutrients and fiber.

▶️Cinnamon
- Anti-inflammatory and may help in regulating blood sugar when used as part of a balanced diet.
- Adds warmth and depth of flavor, which can reduce the need for added sweeteners.

Fresh pressed juice is best enjoyed soon after pressing to maximize nutrient content.

⚠️ If you’re watching sugar intake, remember that orange, tangerine, and blueberries add natural sugars; pair with a source of protein or fiber to balance.
