Dr. Mohammed Saeed, who holds a PhD in alternative medicine, stated that "autoimmune diseases are essentially inflammations, with swelling, pain, redness, and heat among their main symptoms." 

Speaking on the 'Ya Hala' program, Saeed explained that "high internal body heat is one of the causes of diabetes in Saudi Arabia."

He added that "turmeric and ginger are also among the main causes of diabetes in Saudi Arabia."

He advised maintaining a balanced body temperature—neither hot nor cold—to avoid diseases, without relying on anti-inflammatories or herbal remedies.
