In this week's episode I'm joined by my colleague Dr. Alison Danby, a Naturopathic Doctor in Ontario with a clinical and research focus on Autoimmunity.
We cover a few pervasive myths in the wellness space on autoimmune disease and what to look for in a "good" autoimmune health plan.
We answer questions like:
- What does remission actually look like? Can you cure your disease?
- Does it matter if we find the root cause of your autoimmune disease or not?
- Can you avoid medication if you have autoimmune disease?
- Are the wellness trends you see online real?
We address the grief, shame and blame that people feel when they have an autoimmune condition diagnosis and how to feel more confident about moving forward with an autoimmune condition in an empowered way.
Dr. Danby is the lead educator for The Confident Clinician's Autoimmune courses, and her next course on Evidence-Based Approaches to Rheumatic disease is open for enrollment right now. Early Bird Pricing ends October 7th. Naturopathic Doctors and Integrative Practitioners can register here.
