Podcasts about Autoimmune disease

In this powerful episode of The Lisa Fischer Said Podcast, Coach Lisa Pickart shares her remarkable journey from battling 14 autoimmune diseases, obesity, thyroid issues, and food addiction to reclaiming her health through ancestral living and the carnivore diet. She opens up about her “pain to purpose” story, raising 10 children while navigating health crises, reversing her husband's liver cirrhosis, and founding the Life Back System. Lisa and Coach Pickart dive deep into the lies we've been told about food, the dangers of chemicals in our products, the truth about vegan and plant-based diets, and how eating ancestrally can restore health, vitality, and purpose at any age.     WEBSITE: https://www.lifebacksystem.com/     INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/lifebacksystem/     FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/lisabiggerblast     YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCi2h_a6wGE--2vcfCnHVMPw     EPISODE SPONSOR:  https://www.davidsburgers.com/     EPISODE SPONSOR:  https://marlsgate.com     LISA'S LINKS:     Lisa Fischer Said Academy:  https://lisafischersaid.com/academy/     Website:  lisafischersaid.com     For more information on group intermittent fasting  coaching with Lisa, email fasting@lisafischersaid.com     For more information on one-on-one or group health coaching with Lisa, email healthcoaching@lisafischersaid.com     Podcast produced by clantoncreative.com

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. This balanced perspective, coupled with her emphasis on humor, connection, and self-advocacy, offers a blueprint for thriving despite chronic health challenges.Melissa: https://www.instagram.com/mmarquis78?igsh=MXFwYzlyZ2t3dnVqbg==Book: https://covenantbooks.com/books/?book=invisibleSend us a text Delivering Happy Mail around the world!We have sent thousands of cards to isolated illness warriors, facilitated hundreds of pen pal relationships, and reached countless family members, caregivers, and medical professionals with messages of hope and acknowledgment.Join our mission to send 100,000 cards of support to patients with long-term illnesses.About our organization | Cards2warriors Are you living with a chronic illness and want to make your voice heard?

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. You'll hear more on: [3:30] Why Kecia never expected to live past 18 and how autoimmune disease changed everything for her by age 25 [8:00] The struggle to get medical validation and how one doctor's compassion literally changed her physiology [14:00] The shift that seemed impossible - seven weeks without daily naps after 30 years of needing them [16:00] What's actually happening in your body during chronic freeze and why extreme sleep needs make biological sense [19:00] How coming out of freeze brought back joy, energy, and the ability to experience life fully again [25:00] Why being praised for "resilience" can actually create stored trauma patterns in your body [29:00] Dr. Aimie's guidance on capacity management and energy investment for sustainable healing Whether you're personally dealing with chronic fatigue and autoimmune conditions that doctors can't fully explain, or you're a practitioner supporting clients with unexplained physical symptoms, this episode shows how addressing trauma at the nervous system level can create changes that seem impossible when we've been stuck for so long.

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?

Send us a textIn this episode, I'm walking you through the five body systems I assess in every autoimmune case — because supporting the immune system alone rarely leads to lasting results.We'll explore how dysfunction in the gut barrier, lymphatic system, detoxification pathways, microbiome, and nervous system can each contribute to flare-ups, immune confusion, and long-term inflammation — and more importantly, what you can do to start restoring balance.I also share some of my own experience with nervous system dysregulation — and why trauma, high-achieving burnout, and being constantly “switched on” can play such a pivotal role in triggering autoimmune disease.Whether you're new to this journey or deep in the layers, this episode will give you a clear, practical framework for moving forward.

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?

The promise of advanced cell therapies is undeniable, but as demand skyrockets, the challenges of taking a living drug from bench to bedside have never been greater. Each batch brings variability, each jurisdiction adds regulatory hurdles, and every strategic decision can determine whether a lifesaving therapy reaches patients or fizzles out behind clinical barriers.Lindsay Davies is a leading figure in the cell and gene therapy field, serving as Vice President-Elect for Europe at the International Society of Cell and Gene Therapy (ISCT). She is Chief Scientific Officer at NextCell Pharma, co-founder of QVance, and founder of the consultancy CellTherEx. With over 20 years of experience across academia and industry, she brings deep expertise in MSC manufacturing, process development, and commercialization of advanced therapies. Here are three reasons this episode is a must-listen:Manufacturing at Scale, Without Compromise: Lindsay shares why NextCell Pharma has stuck with large-scale 2D manufacturing for MSCs, leveraging cell morphology and a patented donor selection algorithm to reduce batch-to-batch variability while maximizing reproducibility and safety, even when treating hundreds from a single batch.Smart Scaling: Up, Out, or Both? The debate isn't just academic. Lindsay explores when it makes sense to scale up processes versus scaling out to multiple manufacturing sites. She highlights how harmonizing global regulatory expectations and moving to closed 2D systems can lower costs, de-risk production, and bring life-changing therapies to more patients worldwide.Network or Nowhere: Lindsay calls out the myth of the lone innovator, championing the crucial role of strategic networking, partnership models, including “sweat equity”, and early regulatory engagement as keys to avoiding the common commercialization pitfalls that stall so many promising ATMPs.Wondering how to navigate the twin challenges of process control and commercial viability in ATMP development?

The key to conquering autoimmune diseases and type 1 diabetes may lie not in replacing lost cells, but in retraining the immune system using cells already within the body.Biotech is increasingly exploring stem cell therapies, but a quieter revolution is brewing: stromal cell therapy. These master “coordinators” aren't about rebuilding tissues molecule by molecule - instead, they orchestrate an anti-inflammatory response, offering new hope for conditions once considered incurable.In this episode of the Smart Biotech Scientist Podcast, host David Brühlmann speaks with Lindsay Davies, a leading expert in advanced therapies. She is the CSO at NextCell Pharma, consultant at CellTherEx, and co-founder of QVance, a QC analytics provider for ATMPs. Recently elected Vice President Elect for Europe at ISCT, Lindsay also chairs its European Industry Committee and serves on multiple task forces. With over 20 years bridging academia and industry, she's helped shape the full lifecycle of cell-based therapies, from development to commercialization.Here are three reasons why you can't miss this episode:Stromal Cells - The Unsung Heroes: Discover the essential distinction between stem cells (the “builders”) and stromal cells (the “coordinators”), and how harnessing the latter's unique immune-modulatory powers is unlocking treatments for diabetes, COVID-19, and autoimmune diseases.A Manufacturing Mindset Shift: Lindsay explains why scaling out cell therapies defies the “plug-and-play” approaches of traditional biologics manufacturing. With cell quality so sensitive to environmental shifts, the key lies in process simplicity, early regulatory collaboration, and deep biological understanding - especially when donor variability enters the mix.Allogeneic Therapies Made Real: Thanks to umbilical cord-derived stromal cells, treatments can be manufactured at scale, stored frozen, and delivered on demand - no patient matching required. The result? Outpatient infusions, no side effects, and effects lasting up to five years, dramatically simplifying lives for those with chronic inflammatory conditions.Ready to rethink how cell therapies are changing medicine - and what it could mean for your bioprocessing strategy?
