A member asked:
What deficiency causes systematic sclerosis ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not deficiency: Systemic sclerosis, or scleroderma, is a poorly-understood autoimmune disease. Anyone claiming it is a deficiency disease, or offering a nutritional treatment for these unfortunate patients (and there's no really effective treatment) is misinformed.
