Sarcoidosis involves inflammation that produces tiny lumps of cells in various organs of the body. Sarcoidosis can occur in almost any part of your body, although it usually affects some organs more than others. It usually starts in one of two places: It usually affects lungs, skin, eyes, liver, spleen, brain, heart and salivary glands, bones and joints, kidneys and reproductive organs.

Sarcoidosis is an inflammatory disease that affects multiple organs in the body, but mostly the lungs and lymph glands. In people with sarcoidosis, abnormal masses or nodules consisting of inflamed tissues form in certain organs of the body. These granulomas may alter the normal structure and possibly the function of the affected organ.
There is no cure for sarcoidosis, but the disease may get better on its own over time. Many people with sarcoidosis have mild symptoms and do not require any treatment. Treatment, when it is needed, is given to reduce symptoms and to maintain the proper working order of the affected organs.

Yes, there is supplement for patients who has sarcoidosis. You can give them Arnica, Bryonia, Rhus tox and sulfur. Try to drink them thrice a day 30 minutes before every meal, but except for sulfur drink it only once a day. Avoid chocolate mint candies, coffee, carbonated and alcoholic drink.

Pinkblush wrote that the treatment of sacoidosis is only reducing the symptom and there is no probable cure for the disease. I have read an article in the internet that they also use steroids for treating this disease. As for pinkblush’s information, she is correct - it will only minimize the condition and help the affected organ to work well.
