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

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, "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 prevent diseases, without relying on anti-inflammatories or herbal remedies.
