Superfoods to Reverse Autoimmune Disease

By Leave a Comment

First let me start with the bad news. There is no diet that will reverse your autoimmune disease or cancer or rid you of inflammation. That is, there is no one-size- fits all diet. The good news is there are some guidelines you can start with until you get more in-depth functional medicine testing done to see who is living in your gut (microbiome), how your adrenals and hormones are doing, what foods your immune system is reacting to and what your genetic pre-disposition to autoimmune disease and cancer is.

Reverse Autoimmune Disease with the Ancient Wisdom of Ayurveda

Reverse Autoimmune Disease with the Ancient Wisdom of Ayurveda

By Leave a Comment

When I was 30 years old I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). I was able to reverse this  painful  autoimmune disease within 6 months of diagnosis because I discovered Ayurvedic medicine. Ayurveda is the 10,000-year- old sister science of yoga. It is literally translated from Sanskrit as “science of life.” One of the teachings of Ayurveda that got me on my road from inflamed to vital was the knowledge that we are not all the same person. In fact, the different body types, or doshas, require different diets, sleep patterns, exercise regimens and they process their emotions differently. Ayurveda says autoimmune disease is undigested anger. I also learned that my dosha type was prone to holding onto weight, toxins, and emotional hurt. It was also prone to inflammation. I am a pitta-kapha dosha. So I set out to learn how to feed myself, detox myself, heal my past trauma, and became a yoga and meditation teacher.

Are Your Beliefs About Hydration Wrong?

Are Your Beliefs About Hydration Wrong?

I recently interviewed Dr. Gerald Pollack for my radio show (Healthy YOU! Radio) for the fourth time in the last 6 years. I am fascinated by his work. He’s a professor at the University of Washington and has been experimenting on water for most of his career.

Several years ago, he and his team discovered a “fourth phase” of water. In elementary school, we all learned that water comes in 3 phases: vapor, liquid, and solid. We also learned our bodies are made up of primarily (more than 90%) water. Thus, we are encouraged to hydrate. It turns out this is incomplete information.

The fourth way water manifests in this world Dr. Pollack calls EZ water. EZ stands for exclusion zone. [Read more…] about Are Your Beliefs About Hydration Wrong?

How to Prevent and Even Halt Alzheimer’s Disease?

How to Prevent and Even Halt Alzheimer’s Disease?

By Leave a Comment

Over the last 10 years, I have had an increasing number of my patients coming into my office worried about Alzheimer’s Disease and Dementia.

There are two reasons that I see for this increase in fear around loss of cognitive function and memory:

  • As we age, we begin to be confronted with care-giving aging parents or we might be noticing an inability to remember details the way we used to when we were younger.
  • The prevalence of Alzheimer’s dementia is indeed on the rise.

There are over 5 million Americans living with Alzheimer’s today.

Alzheimer’s is the 6th leading cause of death in the United States, an increase of 89% since 2000.

Alzheimer’s dementia is now considered an autoimmune disease. – Tweet this!
