What if your autoimmune condition isn’t just caused by your genes but by the environment, foods, and toxins that influence how those genes are expressed? In this episode, I sit down with Mickey Trescott, a leading voice in the autoimmune health space, to explore why autoimmune disease is becoming one of the fastest-growing health challenges today.
We dive into the connection between the gut, the microbiome, and immune function, and discuss why autoimmune conditions are deeply influenced by environmental factors, diet, lifestyle, stress, and the health of our gut barrier.
Mickey shares her journey with Hashimoto’s and celiac disease, and explains how her own struggles led her to discover the principles behind the Autoimmune Protocol (AIP). She breaks down the research behind AIP and why it has shown promise for conditions like inflammatory bowel disease and Hashimoto’s.
If you or someone you love is struggling with autoimmune symptoms, this conversation could provide a roadmap for helping the body to heal with the right environment, nutrition, and lifestyle choices.
“Every autoimmune disease is linked by gut dysfunction."
