Podcasts about Autoimmune disease

The Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine was awarded to three scientists for their work in immunology.  Daniel Griffin, MD, PhD, Chief of Infectious Disease for Island Infectious Diseases, the largest physician-owned Infectious Disease Specialist Group on Long Island, an infectious disease specialist and clinical instructor of medicine at Columbia University and president of Parasites Without Borders and co-host of the podcast "This Week in Virology", explains their breakthrough and what it means for future treatments for autoimmune diseases, cancer, and more. 

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared sits down with Dr. Jason Klop, founder of Novel Biome, to explore one of the most fascinating and misunderstood frontiers in health: fecal microbiota transplant (FMT). Often misnamed “fecal matter transplant,” FMT is a highly purified process that restores microbial diversity in the gut—far beyond what probiotics alone can achieve. Jared and Dr. Klop discuss why FMT is gaining traction in digestive health, neurological conditions, and immune balance, and how it differs from traditional probiotic supplementation. You'll learn about the rigorous donor screening process, oral vs. rectal delivery methods, and why gut microbiome diversity is critical for overall vitality. The potential applications of FMT are broad and promising. This conversation pulls back the curtain on how supporting the gut ecosystem could impact everything from digestion and inflammation to mood and longevity.Additional Information:Novel BiomeNovel Biome - InstagramPodcast – Biome Breakthroughs (Spotify): Listen hereVisit the podcast website here: VitalityRadio.comYou can follow @vitalitynutritionbountiful and @vitalityradio on Instagram, or Vitality Radio and Vitality Nutrition on Facebook.

Osteoarthritis is the reason for 25% of primary care doctor visits and affects 80% of all adults over the age of 50.  In this episode, you'll find out:—How Osteoarthritis is more of a "wear and tear" form of Arthritis that deteriorates the joints, while Rheumatoid Arthritis is an Autoimmune Disease where the immune system attacks the joint.—The symptoms of Osteoarthritis.  And how some of the worst Osteoarthritis cases no longer have any pain, but can't move due to the increased stiffness.—The crucial importance of proper Chiropractic alignment to keep joints from wearing down.  And why you should even have your children checked annually.—The advanced X-Ray imaging used at Holistic Integration where X-Rays are read by one of the top Radiologists in the world.—Why the medical treatments for Osteoarthritis, like NSAID's and steroids, will actually destroy the joints and worsen the Osteoarthritis long-term.—How the Disease Care/Medical model says that Osteoarthritis is something that cannot be cured, but Structure-Function Care is actually able to reverse the deterioration. —The Decompression treatment that pumps the fluid and nutrition into the joints and can actually reverse the Osteoarthritis.—Why Dr. Prather says that Acupuncture is "absolutely great" for Osteoarthritis, which can provide immediate relief from the pain.—The many natural supplement options at Holistic Integration that are helpful for Osteoarthritis, which actually work better than the drugs and pharmaceuticals.  And the topical herbal liniments used at Holistic Integration that are "extremely effective" and "can make all the difference in the world".—Why a 5-day food rotation diet can be "a critical aspect of someone's care" with severe Osteoarthritis.http://www.TheVoiceOfHealthRadio.com

What if the very tests your doctor says are “normal” are actually missing the real reason you feel exhausted, foggy, anxious, or out of balance? For millions of people, thyroid issues are at the heart of their symptoms — yet they're often overlooked, misdiagnosed, or mistreated.   In this episode of the HEAL with Kelly Podcast, I sit down with McCall McPherson, PA-C — a physician associate, TEDx speaker, and founder of Modern Thyroid Clinic — to uncover the truth about thyroid health and the issues with how the conventional model addresses it. McCall shares both her medical expertise and her personal journey with hypothyroidism, shedding light on why so many patients aren't getting the answers they need and what we can do differently.   Together, we explore the crucial differences between Hashimoto's, Graves', and hypothyroidism, why relying on TSH markers alone misses the bigger picture, and the labs that actually matter. We talk about the role of inflammation, toxins, and stress in autoimmune thyroid disease, as well as the hidden connections between thyroid health, heart disease, diabetes, and cognitive decline.   McCall also opens up about controversial topics many doctors don't discuss — from the risks of birth control and misconceptions about hormone replacement therapy to the overuse of GLP-1 drugs. And she offers practical, empowering lifestyle shifts — from food to relationships to microdosing peptides — that can make a profound difference in daily health.   This is an eye-opening and life-changing conversation for anyone who has ever been told their labs are “normal” but still knows something isn't right.

Autoimmune diseases are surging across America, yet conventional medicine rarely addresses the environmental triggers hiding in plain sight. The foods on your plate and the toxins in your daily environment represent two of the most significant—and controllable—factors in autoimmune development. This isn't about elimination diets—it's about understanding how environmental medicine intersects with autoimmune pathophysiology, and why your doctor likely hasn't mentioned the connection between your breakfast and your antibody levels.

Send us a textThe world of invisible illness is a lonely place where "you look fine" becomes a painful refrain from well-meaning friends and family who can't see the war raging inside your body. For six years, I've navigated life with rheumatoid arthritis—an autoimmune disease where my body attacks my joints, causing inflammation, pain, and progressive damage from my fingers to my hips.This deeply personal episode peels back the curtain on what it's truly like living with chronic pain that others can't see. I share my diagnosis story, the countless medications and supplements that fill my daily routine, and how I've had to completely reimagine my identity. From the steroid shots that provide temporary relief to the heated blankets that have become my constant companions, I walk you through the practical realities of managing an autoimmune disease.But beyond the physical challenges lies a profound psychological journey. I've discovered what I call the "migraine hack"—how people readily show empathy for conditions they understand while dismissing autoimmune flares with a casual "can't you just suck it up?" I share the valuable Column A, B, C exercise from the Mayo Clinic that's helping me accept my new reality: Column A represents who I was before, Column C reflects my worst days, and Column B is the new identity I'm creating between those extremes.Whether you're battling an invisible illness yourself or love someone who is, this conversation offers both practical insights and emotional validation. For those suffering, you're not alone in this struggle. For those supporting someone with chronic illness, understanding is the greatest gift you can offer. Because when someone says they're in pain, believing them costs nothing—but dismissing their experience costs them everything. Thanks again for listening.

When Dr. Nouran Abdelkader developed vitiligo—a disfiguring autoimmune skin condition—the UK's top dermatologist told her there was no hope and no treatment. The disease would spread everywhere, he said. She'd have to live with it forever.What happened next challenges everything we think we know about autoimmune disease, nutrition, and healing.This emergency medicine doctor didn't just heal her vitiligo. She also resolved her lifelong asthma, eczema, chronic hives, ADHD symptoms, depression, panic attacks, and brain fog. Her IQ jumped from 110 to 137. Her diabetic sister reduced insulin from 70 units to 7 units daily.The solution? She eliminated everything except meat, salt, and water.Dr. Abdelkader shares her controversial journey from believing every medical guideline to questioning the entire system. She explains why she now feels guilty prescribing standard treatments, how she risks her medical license by sharing her experience, and why she believes most medical research serves profit over patients.This isn't just another diet success story. It's a practicing physician's firsthand account of how the medical establishment fails patients with chronic disease—and what actually works when conventional medicine doesn't.Her transformation raises uncomfortable questions: If meat heals while fruits and vegetables inflame, what else have we gotten wrong? Why can't doctors share successful treatments that contradict guidelines? And how many people are suffering needlessly because the system won't acknowledge inconvenient truths?BIG IDEA"We are made of meat, water, salt and trace elements—so if you eat what you are made of, you'll be fine, but if you eat something we're not made of, like vegetables or sugar, problems arise."Nouran Abdelkader - Contact InfoLinkedIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nouran-el-dali-528a26b8Send Dr. Ovadia a Text Message.

When people get hives or swelling, they often think it's caused by an allergy. But in the case of chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU), the culprit is often your own immune system. CSU isn't your typical allergic reaction, instead, it's frequently an autoimmune condition, where the immune system misfires and activates mast cells without any external trigger. In this episode, Dr. Payel Gupta and Kortney unpack what it means for CSU to be autoimmune and autoallergic. They explain how IgE and IgG antibodies can trigger histamine release, leading to hives and swelling. You'll also learn why allergy testing isn't useful for diagnosing CSU, and how tests like IgG food sensitivity panels can do more harm than good by leading to unnecessary food avoidance and confusion. What we cover in our episode about autoimmune CSU and chronic hives: Is CSU an allergy? Why CSU is often mistaken for an allergic reaction—and why standard allergy tests rarely provide helpful answers. How the immune system works in CSU: What mast cells are, how they release histamine, and their central role in chronic spontaneous urticaria. Understanding autoimmune CSU: Learn how the immune system can trigger hives from within, including the roles of IgE and IgG antibodies. Autoimmune hives explained: We explore how CSU can be autoimmune, why the immune system may attack itself, and what Type I and Type IIb autoimmune CSU really mean. ____ Made in partnership with The Allergy & Asthma Network.

We often blame our DNA for autoimmune disease and chronic illness. But what if the real inheritance isn't genetic at all? What if it's the food on the table, the unspoken stress, the toxins in our homes, and the patterns no one questions? In this episode of Medical Disruptors, Dr. E talks with Divya Gupta, a former Silicon Valley consultant who left the career everyone admired to reclaim her health. From gallbladder surgery at 20 to a Hashimoto's diagnosis at 25, Divya reveals how years of dismissed symptoms taught her the most dangerous form of gaslighting is when you start doubting yourself. She shares why gallbladders aren't disposable, how the thyroid and liver are deeply connected, and why bile may be the most overlooked part of your health. Together we explore the invisible inheritance families pass down—habits, foods, and beliefs that shape health outcomes for generations. This conversation challenges the myth that your destiny is written in your DNA. It's about reclaiming your voice, trusting your body, and breaking cycles that no longer serve you.

What happens when a medical professional becomes the patient? Melissa Marquis—a nurse with over 25 years of experience in emergency preparedness—shares her remarkable journey from healthcare provider to autoimmune patient after being diagnosed with limited cutaneous systemic sclerosis following a frustrating 10-year search for answers.Drawing from both her clinical expertise and lived experience, Melissa offers a unique dual perspective that bridges the gap between medical knowledge and the reality of living with chronic illness. Her story resonates with anyone who has felt dismissed by healthcare providers or struggled to connect seemingly unrelated symptoms into a coherent diagnosis. Despite facing significant health challenges affecting her heart, GI tract, and other systems, Melissa demonstrates how determination and self-advocacy can lead to both answers and purpose.The conversation explores practical daily management strategies—from heat therapy to Epsom salt baths—that help Melissa navigate her symptoms. She shares insights from her book "Invisible: A Nurse-Turned Patient's Resource to Living Well with Autoimmune Disease," which emerged from her desire to create the comprehensive resource she wished she'd had during her own diagnostic journey. The book combines medical education with practical tools for living well, making complex information accessible to patients at any stage of their journey.Beyond medical advice, this episode delivers a powerful message about finding meaning amid suffering. As Melissa beautifully states, "I've found purpose in my pain, and I encourage others to find theirs as well." Her approach emphasizes becoming your own "disease detective"—understanding your condition deeply while remaining open to both conventional and complementary approaches that might bring relief.

About 1-in-6 Americans suffer from an Autoimmune Disease, which is actually a growing problem.  In this episode, we talk about:—How Dr. Prather's career was inspired by his own battle with Graves' Disease, which is an Autoimmune Disease.  And why making sure the Atlas is in proper place is "critical" for Autoimmune Disease and needs to be corrected first before there can be any progress.—The various categories of Autoimmune Disease:  Joints and Muscles (Rheumatoid Arthritis, Lupus, Myositis), Skin and Blood Vessels (Sjogren's Syndrome, Psoriatic Arthritis, Vitiligo), Digestive (Celiac Disease, Crohn's Disease, Ulcerative Colitis), the Endocrine System (Type I Diabetes, Addison's Disease, Hashimoto's, Thyroiditis, Graves' Disease), the Nervous System (Multiple Sclerosis, Myasthenia Gravis, Guillain-Barre), the Lymphatic System (Fibromyalgia), and many more.—The different infections that can kick off Autoimmune Disease, including Viruses, Bacteria, Parasitic, or Fungal.   And how Heavy Metal Toxicities and Stress can cause of Autoimmune Disease.—Why the underlying cause of the Autoimmune Disease is more important to determine in Dr. Prather's Structure-Function Health Care model, while the Disease Care approach focuses on managing and suppressing the symptoms.  And the "huge" role that the Gut plays in Autoimmune Diseases.—The new cutting-edge area of drugs called Biologics and how they work.  And how Vaccines are actually classified as Biologics.—How Immunosuppressant Drugs can be helpful and life-saving, but can also increase your chances of Cancer and a shortened life-span.  And why Dr. Prather says, "The more drugs that you take, the longer you take them, the more likely you are to have an issue."—Why your ability to fight infections, viruses, fungal, and parasites "go way down" if you are taking an Immunosuppressant Drug.—How Dr. Prather himself and many of his patients are a "testament" that Medical Doctors are wrong when taught to believe that there is no hope of getting well from Autoimmune Disease.  And how the Structure-Function Care results he sees in his office disprove the Medical model's belief that symptoms should just be managed and that the patient will always get worse.—Why Dr. Prather says "we're not going to get anywhere" with an Autoimmune Disease if you have Heavy Metal toxicity.  And the importance of thorough diagnostics in Structure-Function Care to determine the root cause of the Autoimmune Disease that needs to be corrected.—The effectiveness of Structure-Function Care, which is "the only way you're going to make headway in an Autoimmune Disease".  And the reason Homeopathics are described by Dr. Prather as "a real key" for making dramatic changes in Autoimmune Disease.http://www.TheVoiceOfHealthRadio.com

In this special reverse interview episode, my friend and colleague Steven Wright from Healthy Gut interviews me about the core concepts from my upcoming book, The Biology of Trauma. Steven understands the somatic work, the parts work, the biology, the capacity, and the overwhelm from his own healing journey, making this conversation uniquely insightful. I share stories I haven't told anywhere else - including my keto diet disaster during surgery residency that became my first clue about the biology of trauma. We explore why I rewrote this book seven times, how I discovered I had all three major biochemical imbalances, and the painful decision to place my adopted son Miguel in a different home - the grief that ultimately led to my autoimmune diagnosis and this entire body of work. Key Topics & Timestamps [00:00] The Eight Drafts of the book: Dr. Aimie's journey as an author [04:12] Beyond ACEs Scores: Why we can become obsessed with our score  [08:36] Capacity is Everything: Understanding your nervous system's dynamic capacity  [13:47] The Biology Block: How Dr. Aimie discovered her own biology was sabotaging her trauma healing [21:55] The Pain Equation: When humans decide to change  [25:44] Perception vs. Reality: How we create mountains from molehills  [28:19] The Healing Timeline: Why trauma work doesn't have to be a lifelong journey [34:04] Safety First: The critical sequence for healing trauma without retraumatization [37:18] Stress vs. Trauma: The crucial distinction that changes everything [38:18] Miguel's Story: The heartbreaking adoption journey that changed Dr. Aimie Main Takeaways The Three-Legged Stool: True trauma healing requires addressing psychological, emotional, AND biological aspects simultaneously Biology Keeps You Stuck: Inflammation, oxidative stress, and biochemical imbalances create internal danger signals that perpetuate trauma responses Capacity Changes Moment to Moment: Your nervous system's capacity is dynamic and requires constant awareness, not just daily check-ins Perception Creates Your Reality: Your body responds to your perception of danger, not actual danger - making that molehill into a mountain The Right Sequence Matters: Creating safety must come before attempting to process trauma, or symptoms worsen Fast Healing is Possible: When addressing all three domains properly, healing happens faster than medication with only positive "side effects" Notable Quotes "If something makes you sick, that is not stress. Let's call it for what it is. That is your body having gone into a trauma response." "Our capacity is not being measured up against our reality, it's being measured up against our perceptions." "The pain of staying the same has to become so bad that we're willing to undergo the pain of change." "If their body had already felt safe, it would have already opened up all of this stuff and let all of these emotions and trauma go. It hasn't felt safe." Episode Takeaway Trauma healing doesn't have to be a lifelong journey. By understanding that trauma lives in your biology - not just your mind - and following the proper sequence of safety, support, then expansion, you can heal faster than traditional approaches suggest. The key is addressing all three aspects: psychological, emotional, and biological, rather than focusing on just one.

Many people struggle with chronic fatigue, autoimmune conditions, and exhaustion that no amount of sleep seems to cure. They've tried medications, supplements, therapy, and self-care practices, yet still find themselves needing daily naps just to function. They can't understand why their body seems to be working against them instead of healing, or why they feel so disconnected from the energy they once had. In this episode, you'll meet Kecia, whose story reveals what's possible when we finally address trauma where it lives - in the nervous system. After 30 years on medical disability and needing daily three-hour naps just to survive, Kecia was sleeping 16-18 hours daily and housebound for years. By age 25, autoimmune illness had taken her career as a respiratory therapist, her ability to hike, even basic tasks. After completing the Foundational Journey, something happened that might sound impossible - she went seven weeks without needing a single nap for the first time in decades. Her husband said she became "like the person I knew 30 years ago." This isn't about willpower or positive thinking. It's about understanding how unresolved attachment wounds show up as physical symptoms decades later, and why trauma healing requires addressing the nervous system directly.

A lot of things have been labelled "autoimmune" that have turned out to not actually be autoimmune... so the question has to be asked: "Does auto-immunity actually exist?" To date, we do have evidence that autoimmune disease is very real, but most of these instances look to either be collateral damage, "molecular mimicry" where your body produces something that looks like an invader, or something else. And the root causes of "autoimmunity" are well understood to be leaky gut, a trigger of some sort and genetic predisposition. And in this episode, we're challenging the paradigm of autoimmune diseases to see if your body can actually attack itself.   TOPICS DISCUSSED: What autoimmunity actually is "auto-antibodies" vs "antibodies" What it truly means to attack yourself Specific types of antibodies we thought attacked "self" but turned out to attack "other" Different anbitodies in Crohn's, Colitis and Lyme disease (just as examples) Evidence they are not attacking you How you can begin healing from autoimmune diseases   Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?

In this episode, Dr. Jockers sits down with Dr. Joseph Antoun to unpack how fasting strategies, including fasting-mimicking diets, can rejuvenate immune cells, slow down inflammaging, and support overall healthy aging.   You'll discover how chronic inflammation accelerates aging, why old “zombie” cells cause damage, and how fasting helps clear them out while replacing them with stronger, more resilient ones. The conversation also dives into immunosenescence, what happens when immune cells age, and how this process links to conditions like cancer, cardiovascular disease, and autoimmune disorders.   Dr. Antoun also explains the delicate balance between growth and repair in the body—and why our modern eating patterns keep us stuck in constant growth mode. By leveraging targeted fasting protocols, we can push our bodies toward autophagy, boost cell repair, and open the door to a healthier, longer life.   In This Episode: 00:00 Introduction to Fasting and Cellular Rejuvenation 00:48 Guest Introduction: Dr. Joseph Antoun 04:25 Understanding Chronic Inflammation and Inflammaging 10:10 The Role of Nutrition in Aging and Immune Health 13:13 Fasting Mimicking Diet: Science and Benefits 23:32 Fasting and Autoimmune Diseases 24:35 The Role of Stomach Acid in Digestion 26:28 ProLon and Biological Age Reduction 30:15 ProLon for Diabetes and Chronic Conditions 32:06 How to Use ProLon Effectively 38:06 Current Research and Future Directions 40:49 The Importance of Fasting in Human Health 42:39 Conclusion and Final Thoughts Looking for a clean, nutrient-packed snack?
