No family history at all , i was wondering if a build up of toxins around the basal layer of skin Could cause an autoimmune response?

@thomcat. I have found nothing about toxic buildup in the skin causing an autoimmune disease. Research doesn’t mention it, either. Have you discussed this with your doctor? Does he, or any lab work, indicate toxic buildup?

Good morning @thomcat.. i found this article fromNational Institute of Health that talks about toxins and autoimmunity. There is research being done.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3076021/.
There is more information at this link: https://www.google.com/search?q=toxins+and+autoimmune&rlz=1C9BKJA_enUS796US799&oq=toxins+and+autoimmune&aqs=chrome..69i57j0i512j0i22i30l2j0i390i395l2.12445j1j7&hl=en-US&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8

Are you wanting to know how/why you got vitiligo?
