This podcast covers the keys to improving Hashimoto's and autoimmune conditions.

We will look at the problem of autoimmunity and the leading theory behind how autoimmune conditions are environmentally triggered.

We'll also discuss the three key factors behind environmentally-induced autoimmunity.

Our discussion will revolve around optimizing health through a functional medicine lens.

If you're not familiar with Functional Medicine, it is a systems biology-based approach that focuses on identifying and addressing the root cause of disease.

Functional Medicine is a complementary approach to traditional allopathic health care that incorporates dietary, lifestyle, and nutritional supplementation to support optimal physiology.
