Living in a subdivision where 65 neighbors all got together to spray their lawns with insecticides and pesticides. It landed on my vegetable garden, and i was canning vegetables and I popped a snap pea into my mouth and burned my tongue. Within 48 hours, i was paralyzed for 8 days , and my inflammatory markers were through the roof. I then began burning and eventually diagnosed with CRPS. I changed my diet, lost 40 pounds, i don't smoke, and everything has changed. If i have any sugar, my body breaks out in burns. I also noticed my children's hands were sticky after playing in the grass, but there was no sign that any company had sprayed. They did. So I've quit bounce sheets and my son is free of allergy needles after 7 months of my stopping those alone. We have to be pro- active and we'll see results. ❤ this podcast.
I am sick and tired of being sick and tired. I’ve gathered a dozen diagnoses and bounced between specialists that don’t communicate. I have an appointment next week at Cleveland’s Functional Medicine. I want to be off meds and be healthy again!
So glad to hear this talk about autoimmunity and vascular disease. I am dealing with a metabolic disorder that is totally treatable without symptom suppression from western medicine
Dr Hyman, thanks for all your pertinent lifesaving info you share. Can you discuss Cushings syndrome/disease and CORTISOL. I've been dealing with this for many yrs waa even on Korlym (58k a month) for 8yrs...the disease has wreaked havoc on gi, thyroid, adrenal, pituitary, muscles, hair loss, mental along with pneumonia&sinus infections, fatigue, weight gain/loss, excessive sweating, quality of life. There are support grps & specialists but not local and 1-2yr wait list. The only reason I've been able to get this far after 30+ yrs @ 60yo is your videos and insight on practical, holistic meds. Thank God for you. Love and Blessings
Have you dewormed yourself with mebendazol and albendazole, etc. Have you done a parasite cleanse. Have you done enema (clean out your colon) with MMS (Master Mineral Solution)? Do these and see how you recover.
Diet change ur diet no sugar no white flour no seed oil no processed food. It seems like a lot but in reality it’s not. Start with sugar and go from there. I did it you can do it❤
Im 63, always eaten natural food, never been to a doctor - Now I watch out sugars & carbs, eat keto + int.fasting 16:8, thanks to the fact that I understand English and therefore can listen to metsbolic health specialists😊
Dr. Hyman, I have seen the benifits of eating veg for the past couple years: but I have not Felt rejuvinated. I saw you yesterday on one of your Podcasts about Pomegrante , and if finally sunk in. I ate the seed. Now I also saw one one with Dr. Gundry and he said eat it all, well i tasted the skin, WOOOOOH! That I do not believe he meant to say. What I want to tell you is when I woke up this morning. I felt like my old self!!!! So perhaps I am one of the 10% that digest the Pomegrante. I think I have all this down pat. So now I am listening to this newest one playing as I write to you, and I know it is a must see. So I want to hear about this 10 year old. Great respect and Thankfullness for you and your work. Oh and I have being losing hair like this little girl.
We must start training doctors differently! This affects everyone and nothing is being done about it and most doctors are completely lost with what is happening to our bodies!
Conventional doctors are training us to take the money making pharmaceuticals as a money maker. After working the medical system within a hospital I stay clear of doctors and their health scare tactics. Haven't been to a physician for anything in many years.
It is just crazy that Doctors do not get nutrition training in Medical schools. Every doctor visit should include some nutrition discussion. The majority of the population is over weight or obese leading to high blood pressure, heart disease and cancer. Schools and hospital cafeterias should be leading the way to good health by setting the example of what is a healthy meal and teaching people what to eat and why.. Every person in the hospital for heart disease should have a nutrition class before being checked out from the hospital with follow up education and training in nutrition. Medicare and Medicaid should require patient nutrition education as part of their standard of care. Nutrition information should be run on the hospital TV channel.
I agree but that would mean goin up against the Rockefellers who own this western medicine curriculum for hundred years. We must seek our Dr's who probably don't accept insurance. Bottom line.
This is a little dynamo video that says what needs to be said...finally.Thanks Mark Hyman for educating with true understanding what truly needs to be understood
TWO QUESTIONS for me to use and pass on: 💥Is there a basic list/chart of lab tests by category with simple explanation? 💥Once person is healthy can the eliminated food items; gluten dairy sugars... be added back in limited or in high quality sources such as Certified Raw Milk, local organic non-enriched grains, etc? Thank you! ❤❤❤
these are all great questions. I have done my homework for many years, reading and listening to podcatss. get the books, take notes, watch the podcasts, get a Mosaic allergy test, 3 day stool collection test and lots more. Take control of your health. No one else will
Great video. But most people don’t have thousands of dollars or insurance to see people like you dr Hyman. I interviewed with a dr of functional medicine like in my area and the lab work was outrageous. Iam 63, hypothyroidism and wanted to see why iam still tired all the time. But limited funds.
Neither do the people of Mongolia! My point I have applied Dr. Hyman’s principles without spending a dime! I just go to UA-cam and search for autoimmune diseases! I’m 74 and hardly ever see a doctor because I have improved my immune system!
@@mikejackson2817 awesome! I have a dr but she’s very pro pharmaceutical meds. I too have done what dr Hyman says, and has help a lot. If I didn’t have thyroid issues I would not see a dr, but again I could not afford to see a functional dr to get labs to get proper diagnosis. 😔
I feel you. I need a $9000 surgery to get rid of just the infections from having my wisdom teeth out, then I need to see a functional doctor to find other infections (I highly suspect Lyme). No way can I afford any of that. I’m a single mom of 4 on Medicaid. I’ve been sick my whole life and now in my 40s it’s getting harder and harder. I was raised by my grandma who was very into natural healing, so I’ve always done different diets and natural treatments.
@@H.Micheledo you want a instant fix? Start by getting rid of Any food in your home that has high fructose corn syrup. Then vacuum Everything including beds, pillows. Keep the inflammation down
Dr. Hyman was one of my first mentors online. Got into health foods slowly 38 years ago. still figuring out which pathways of food work for me still taking and learning about new lab tests. Taking expensive suppliments and they are working
Dr. Hyman makes good points, but he is the only doctor on UA-cam who smirks while explaining how his clients suffered. That bothers the heck out me. What if this was his child? :(
Dr. Hyman has so many good videos. I suggest you watch a number of them, and then you will be able to understand this better. Also, try writing down the medical terms you don't understand, then looking them up. His information is so good. Doing these things will help you to benefit benefit yourself.
Me too!!! My doctor finally found what I have going on it took all this time since a 2022 hospital incident that happened to me. They figured out I may have had a Mixed Connective Tissue Disease this whole time. Now I’m wondering if that’s what landed me in the hospital was having an autoimmune condition this whole time and doctors missed it for years especially through my bloodwork since i tested positive for ANA recently in 2023.
I get weeks or months of inflammation and fatigue following a minor flu or cold. Sometimes it's not too bad, other times I'm pretty disabled by pain (knees, hips, achililes...) and pretty chronic tiredness. Anyone else get this?
I’m stuck at step 1. I have oral cavitation infections that have been identified, but I don’t have $9k for the surgery to get rid of that. And I don’t think regular doctors can find other infections, I’m on Medicaid. I so wish there was an affordable option.
And people think government assisted monetary funds are good, they are not. Even Medicare doesn't pay for a lot and between Medicare monthly payments along with a decent supplemental, it still runs me 5,000. a yr.
@@foxiedogitchypaws7141i actually agree with you on this. Plus, healthy fresh food is really expensive! I break my bank account buying fresh veggies, fruit, gluten free and non-toxic this and that. It’s crazy. Many people can’t afford healthy food.
Thank you so much for your wonderful recipe and for helping us take care of our health. Wishing everyone who is watching this video always healthy, peaceful, and happy❤
I’ve been diagnosed with an auto immune liver disease. This was shown in a liver biopsy. I’ve been a health food nut for over 30 years and have a very clean diet. When I first came down with jaundice five weeks ago, I even got more strict with my diet, drinking green juices, mostly fruits and vegetables and a little bit of olive oil and and a millet bread made from a local bakery. My bilirubin has gone down. My ALT and AST were 30 times higher than normal. Now they are 20 times higher than normal. So even though they are improving, the doctor believes I need to get on prednisone immediately. I want to keep doing what I’ve been doing because it seems to be working. What are your thoughts?
My partner was diagnosed with Mixed Connective Tissue Disease in early 2020. I've been trying to encourage her to consider functional / restorative medicine, but you really have to be ready for that as an individual - it takes a lot of commitment and an upheaval of (typically) years of bad habits and diets. She's finally ready to start after her doctors continue giving the same answers: essentially "we don't know, here's another medication." Our issue has been ease and balance - we're trying to learn what meals/ingredients we can make, while also being able to still go out with friends if we'd like, or if we're traveling. Any thoughts or suggestions?
I’m not Dr Hyman obviously lol nor am I a dr. But when I started seeing a good functional dr she helped me so much! And I saw a nutritionist too. I know it’s difficult but it’s worth it to search and find good care. But it’s better than sticking with the type of drs that want to continue to give us toxic medication called prescriptions imo. Healing can be done naturally. I believe this and have total faith.
I’m tired of taking hydroquidrquin presinisdone and leflunomide. So so so tired and on top of that no results. I told the rhmertologist I’m the same way I was 2 years ago when I first walked in here.
Would love to hear your take on vaccine damage that numerous people suffered . Unfortunately I was one of them and nearly died Two years in I now have inflammation in both arms which is extremely painful but I’m not taking drugs as it would just be a downhill slide from there. I eat organically, no processed food, dairy, low sugar , filtered water, meditate etc etc, so one wonders why??? Hopefully one day sooner than later this will be addressed 🤞
Many doctors won't talk about it online because they will get removed...lose their channel. It's a tough call. However, Rumble has doctors talking about it without fear of censorship.
Yes you are so right Jack, I have followed a number of extremely brave Drs and scientists throughout the storm. I always thought I lived in a democratic country, I have now learnt that is far from the truth 😬@@Jack-hy1zq
Hi Doctor Hyman; what is the main cause of Psoriasis? Is it connected to a leaky gut. All I know is stress. Is a Psoriasis a kind of Auto Immune Disease?
Having autoimmune disease I have battled it for years and I’m going on 68 years old I’m going back to ancestral eating. I did this for several years and I was basically pain free. Gradually I reverted back to old eating habits and boom! I’m sick again. Carpal tunnel surgery, tendinitis surgery, trigger finger surgery, injections in my back and neck… you get the picture. I’m doing the elimination diet and taking quality supplements like colostrum, beef organs, among vitamins d, c, bs, magnesium… Thank you Dr. Hyman for your hard work and dedication to improving our health and sharing this valuable knowledge and information.
Any information on Relapsing Polychondritis?it’s a very rare condition that affects all the cartilage in the body. There’s no known treatment for it other than steroids and NSAIDs. Are there any new information on this condition. I really believe we should make this situation known! Please share and read the word for new research!
Dr.Hyman i have teeth filled with amalgam(mercury)and i wanted to remove them, but dentist thinks is more worse to do because it evaporates… I’m tested for antinuclear factors and it’s positive for SS. It’s a pre stage. And here is the question: should i remove or leave my teeth amalgams?
I am not a doctor, but if you have amalgams, yes, remove them, albeit slowly. Dr. Mercola tells the story of his own health-he removed all his amalgams at once and when the body dumped the mercury in its tissues, it caused toxicity in his kidneys and they malfunctioned. He took a long time dealing with that detoxification. So, as a rule of thumb, divide your mouth into 4 quadrants, upper and lower right, upper and lower left. Replace ONE quadrant at a time, then wait three months and remove the next , and so on. If you only have one or two amalgams, that may not apply, of course.
The body doesn’t attack itself per Medical Medium who you know. I’m confused why you don’t follow his info since you’ve written an acknowledgment in his books.
Most conditions any of us have did not magically occur overnight. The date of our symptoms or diagnosis is usually after decades of doing something not quite right. If not completely abusive. And it’s usually not just one thing. If you’re still alive and have a working brain, you can recover. You will have to change something. For some of us it’s giving up sugar. For some of us, it’s exercising less.
Hi Dr. Hyman, I have been prescribed hydroxychloroquine from my rheumatologist. I have mild arthritis. Would it be beneficial to take zinc with hydroxychloroquine?
You have to be careful when taking Hydroxychloroquine as it could have irreversible side effect in your eyes. Please do your own research. Doctors are divided about the treatment of mild RA. My internist friend doctor checked for my finger joints, my eyes and looked for my lab, xray, and ultrasound result. He told me I should not be taking this medicine. So, I stopped it after 5 days. I will monitor my symptoms and might get a second opinion from another Rheumatology after 2 months.
Hello Dr. Which book i should by, to reverse the lupus. I am suffering since 12years. I had kemo, i am on still steroids and immuno suppression drugs. I have been to amazon to buy your book, so many books. I confused, please suggest fundamental book for me, so that i can start my journey to reverse the lupus.❤
I think it's the other way around. COVID contributed to a new autoimmune disease. I caught COVID Jan 2020. My body to this day is immune system is destroyed. I never had the vaccine.
@@girlanonymous I'm talking about vaccines in general including those from childhood. I've worked the medical field and many physicians do not follow the same protocol or suggest to their own family members they advise to their patients. Conventional medicine is a money making business that holds more importance than human quality of life.
Husband has LADA and I don’t quite know how to help. There are the obvious answers like low carbs, etc. but I don’t want him to have to take insulin. Where do we even start?
It’s nice to hear that it’s possible but I tried all of these things he mentioned and much more and I’m still not better. I think in my case it’s because my AI is mainly driven by toxicity but in my case any time I try to move the toxins out (even just with liver flush or mold binder) it triggers my AI, supposedly due to redistribution
I was diagnosed with a rare autoimmune called birdshot uveitis. I am on high steroids and titrating down but they they want me to switch to humira .. I am a wreck on steroids and my blood work is foreign to me now . Alc and trig went up plus everything else . I really want to be off these meds and see if I could be stricter with food and exercise, stress and try it that way first . Currently there is no mew inflammation and my ana was negative. They scare me bc they said humira needs to be started while on steriods .
This was great. I have UC and have struggled to get it under control. Rinvoq seems to help, but is it really or is it just blocking? I'm going to look into your elimination diet and a FM doctor.
Please cut out sugar and carbs, seriously even cooked carrots. No cows dairy maybe goat butter and milk. I was healed in 1 week although I kept on with it for a couple of months to heal my leaky gut!
Sounds wonderful but do most insurances support a patient going to a functional medicine doctor plus all of these tests? I doubt that they do. Besides, the pharmaceutical industry supports doctors to treat symptoms with medications, not the cause!
No they don't cover the cost, they only cover the big box health insurance, Aurora, Prejean, etc... they won't pay for services that actually help us, they only make money if we are sick😢
I would love to work with a functional medicine doctor. Unfortunately where I live, Functional Medicine is 100% private healthcare and I was quoted $50,000 for 6 months of treatment, as everything from tests to pharmaceutical medicines to supplements to re-testing is all out-of-pocket expenses, aside from the hourly rate for the doctor. My insurance covers nothing outside of conventional medicine, I don't make enough money to cover the monthly costs, and I can't even borrow that amount, so Functional Medicine is unfortunately out of my reach. Here's hoping others have more access to Functional Medicine than we do in Canada. Seems like true healthcare is only for the rich here, unfortunately.
What was her main source of calories in this diet? Im trying carnivore to work on fixing my gut inflammation with high ANA scores (long time GERD/Silent reflux/severe bloating and gastritis). My problem is getting enough calories to not lose too much weight while on carnivore. Im currently 5'9" at 130lbs, normally 140 when on carbs. It seems each time i go into ketosis or start to, i get so weak and lethargic. I get diarrhea to the point of losing a bunch of water weight. I always get scared enough at this point ot bring fruit back in for carbs to offset it. Just seems to be an endless cycle. What ended up working for her diet wise?
Sounds like you need to up your fat intake if you’re loosing too much weight. Slap some extra grass fed butter onto your steaks, be sure to eat good fatty cuts of meat.
Hi Dr Hyman. I have autoimmune progesterone dermatitis and I've been searching for years for relief. The dermatologist gave me fexofenadine and steroid cream but these just mask the symptoms. Have you got a video or some info online that could help me?
Carnivore is king! Since I’ve been on it (18 months) all the pain in my joints have disappeared. If I cheat, I know about it the next day, the pain comes back.
I know it’s fashionable to bash big pharma but compliance is likely the biggest barrier to helping people to help themselves. The information is out there but it’s a lot of work and money to DIY.
All Big Pharma can do is hand out chemicals (I learned in grade school chemicals cause chemical reactions) you take the first chemical, in a few months you'll another chemical and pretty soon people are looking at a plethora of chemicals in medicine cabinet. No thank, growing up on a farm I learned about many natural remedies (which Dr's can't make any money on) and learn about soo many through the wonderful naturapathic Dr.s like Dr Hyman. Barbara Oneill out of Australia has many herbal remedies and also herbs that prevent. Thanks to all the wonderful people on UA-cam, we can edify our own health.
Do you take new patients? Many Chiropractors in our area call themselves functional medicine Doctors. Would you recommend against going to a non-MD functional medicine doctor?
Doctor i have a doubt I am experiencing 15 yrs of bulging issues No doctor given me exact response So here am giving u details to lnw abt it Whereever my muscle portion of my body hits or presses heavily it becomes bulge and it stays forever and i am keep on getting bulge muscles newer everyday I couldnt be normal to do any normal activity Could you reply for my query pls
Hello Doctor, I am from Iraq and I have some questions about my observations. I first noticed why people of German or Aryan origins always die from heart attacks, as well as African origin, as well as vitiligo and psoriasis.
@@bug934Unless you have infection. You do need a functional doctor and a biological dentist for that. I can’t afford that so I’m stuck. I’ve been doing all the other stuff for 20+ years wondering why I only get worse. I just recently learned about the infections. So if you’re doing those things and not getting better, that’s probably it.
I believe our toxic food has made us all sick! Along with everything else! Environment, toiletries, clothing ect! It’s very frustrating! I’m in the process to heal my body from autoimmune. The more I learn, the angrier I get!
Does It got something to do with us being farther from the sun? 🤔 or does it got something to do with are vitamin and minerals levels? There is so much junk, in our food anymore... So what do we do?? I've had multiple sclerosis for over 30 yrs now.. Doctor's these days are confused about these diseases also.. What should we do, is the key question. If we have one disease, we can get all diseases, this world is just scary anymore..

When I first came down with jaundice five weeks ago, I even got more strict with my diet, drinking green juices, mostly fruits and vegetables and a little bit of olive oil and and a millet bread made from a local bakery. My bilirubin has gone down. My ALT and AST were 30 times higher than normal. Now they are 20 times higher than normal. So even though they are improving, the doctor believes I need to get on prednisone immediately. I want to keep doing what I’ve been doing because it seems to be working. What are your thoughts?
My partner was diagnosed with Mixed Connective Tissue Disease in early 2020. I've been trying to encourage her to consider functional / restorative medicine, but you really have to be ready for that as an individual - it takes a lot of commitment and an upheaval of (typically) years of bad habits and diets. She's finally ready to start after her doctors continue giving the same answers: essentially "we don't know, here's another medication." Our issue has been ease and balance - we're trying to learn what meals/ingredients we can make, while also being able to still go out with friends if we'd like, or if we're traveling. Any thoughts or suggestions?
I’m not Dr Hyman obviously lol nor am I a dr. But when I started seeing a good functional dr she helped me so much! And I saw a nutritionist too. I know it’s difficult but it’s worth it to search and find good care. But it’s better than sticking with the type of drs that want to continue to give us toxic medication called prescriptions imo. Healing can be done naturally. I believe this and have total faith.
I’m tired of taking hydroquidrquin presinisdone and leflunomide. So so so tired and on top of that no results. I told the rhmertologist I’m the same way I was 2 years ago when I first walked in here.
@@hlw1306 True they did switch me from methotrexate to leflunomide.SMH
Would love to hear your take on vaccine damage that numerous people suffered . Unfortunately I was one of them and nearly died Two years in I now have inflammation in both arms which is extremely painful but I’m not taking drugs as it would just be a downhill slide from there. I eat organically, no processed food, dairy, low sugar , filtered water, meditate etc etc, so one wonders why??? Hopefully one day sooner than later this will be addressed 🤞
Many doctors won't talk about it online because they will get removed...lose their channel. It's a tough call. However, Rumble has doctors talking about it without fear of censorship.
Yes you are so right Jack, I have followed a number of extremely brave Drs and scientists throughout the storm. I always thought I lived in a democratic country, I have now learnt that is far from the truth 😬@@Jack-hy1zq
Hi Doctor Hyman; what is the main cause of Psoriasis? Is it connected to a leaky gut. All I know is stress. Is a Psoriasis a kind of Auto Immune Disease?
Yes. Psoriasis is an autoimmune disease.
Carnivore completely healed my psoriasis
Sun exposure helps heal psoriasis flares. And yes I think it’s a gut health issue.
Having autoimmune disease I have battled it for years and I’m going on 68 years old I’m going back to ancestral eating. I did this for several years and I was basically pain free. Gradually I reverted back to old eating habits and boom! I’m sick again. Carpal tunnel surgery, tendinitis surgery, trigger finger surgery, injections in my back and neck… you get the picture. I’m doing the elimination diet and taking quality supplements like colostrum, beef organs, among vitamins d, c, bs, magnesium…
Thank you Dr. Hyman for your hard work and dedication to improving our health and sharing this valuable knowledge and information.
Any information on Relapsing Polychondritis?it’s a very rare condition that affects all the cartilage in the body. There’s no known treatment for it other than steroids and NSAIDs. Are there any new information on this condition. I really believe we should make this situation known! Please share and read the word for new research!
You left out Myasthenia Gravis AND I would ‘acquire’ hemophilia during child birth - a son - praise God He saw me thru it ALL!!!

Dr.Hyman i have teeth filled with amalgam(mercury)and i wanted to remove them, but dentist thinks is more worse to do because it evaporates…
I’m tested for antinuclear factors and it’s positive for SS. It’s a pre stage. And here is the question: should i remove or leave my teeth amalgams?
I am not a doctor, but if you have amalgams, yes, remove them, albeit slowly. Dr. Mercola tells the story of his own health-he removed all his amalgams at once and when the body dumped the mercury in its tissues, it caused toxicity in his kidneys and they malfunctioned. He took a long time dealing with that detoxification. So, as a rule of thumb, divide your mouth into 4 quadrants, upper and lower right, upper and lower left. Replace ONE quadrant at a time, then wait three months and remove the next , and so on. If you only have one or two amalgams, that may not apply, of course.
The body doesn’t attack itself per Medical Medium who you know. I’m confused why you don’t follow his info since you’ve written an acknowledgment in his books.
Most conditions any of us have did not magically occur overnight. The date of our symptoms or diagnosis is usually after decades of doing something not quite right. If not completely abusive. And it’s usually not just one thing. If you’re still alive and have a working brain, you can recover. You will have to change something. For some of us it’s giving up sugar. For some of us, it’s exercising less.
How do I find a Functional Dr in the LA area in California? What about Functional insurance, is there any?
Protandim nrf2 activator is also helpful. One ingredient is turmeric.
❤ this doc!😊
Hi Dr. Hyman,
I have been prescribed hydroxychloroquine from my rheumatologist. I have mild arthritis. Would it be beneficial to take zinc with hydroxychloroquine?
You have to be careful when taking Hydroxychloroquine as it could have irreversible side effect in your eyes. Please do your own research. Doctors are divided about the treatment of mild RA. My internist friend doctor checked for my finger joints, my eyes and looked for my lab, xray, and ultrasound result. He told me I should not be taking this medicine. So, I stopped it after 5 days. I will monitor my symptoms and might get a second opinion from another Rheumatology after 2 months.
How can we get an appointment with Dr. Mark Hyman to address autoimmune disorders?
Is Cancer an autoimmune Disease? After this and other lectures & videos, I think it is.
Thank you❤
Can you please explain maningo enciphalitis panel negative autoimmune
Thank you. I hope this works
ACE’s - that’s where I think autoimmune disease starts.
Hello Dr. Which book i should by, to reverse the lupus. I am suffering since 12years. I had kemo, i am on still steroids and immuno suppression drugs.
I have been to amazon to buy your book, so many books. I confused, please suggest fundamental book for me, so that i can start my journey to reverse the lupus.❤
Where is a functional health doctor in Scotland uk ???
Ask the pharmacies perhaps ? Or the older folks that you know who have autoimmune disease ?
Must one maintain this diet forever to remain healthy or can one eat a variety of food.
I have DM. It was caught early 🙏🏾
I have it too. Are you on medication ? How are you doing?
How do you find a great Functional doc? Are there resources or designations etc to look for?
Im in South Africa and i need a doctor like you to help me
I blame the vaccine schedule for the rise in autoimmune.
As well as cancer.
I think it's the other way around. COVID contributed to a new autoimmune disease. I caught COVID Jan 2020. My body to this day is immune system is destroyed. I never had the vaccine.
I had mine autoimmune disease since teen years. I think many have had diseases since before the virus or jabs but want to blame the easiest thing 🙄
@@girlanonymous Can go back to childhood vaccines.
@@girlanonymous I'm talking about vaccines in general including those from childhood. I've worked the medical field and many physicians do not follow the same protocol or suggest to their own family members they advise to their patients. Conventional medicine is a money making business that holds more importance than human quality of life.
I have hair thinning/hair loss and skin rash. What lab test do you recommend to get to see if I have potential autoimmune issues? Thank you!
Husband has LADA and I don’t quite know how to help. There are the obvious answers like low carbs, etc. but I don’t want him to have to take insulin. Where do we even start?
The doctors and pharma don't care. It's all about the money.
Thank you for sharing this information.
What to do if you're registering toxic levels of arsenic???
dr. hyman can you pls.talk about bacteria in the lungs. my husband have beeb taking 5 antibiotics and seems not working to get rid of the bacteria
It's everything. Depends on the child, persons body system. Its the roll of the dice.
It’s nice to hear that it’s possible but I tried all of these things he mentioned and much more and I’m still not better. I think in my case it’s because my AI is mainly driven by toxicity but in my case any time I try to move the toxins out (even just with liver flush or mold binder) it triggers my AI, supposedly due to redistribution
Covid has brought us here. May God bless everyone.
Very little in concrete remedies, i.e., "Get rid of the bad bugs and put in the good stuff."
I was diagnosed with a rare autoimmune called birdshot uveitis. I am on high steroids and titrating down but they they want me to switch to humira .. I am a wreck on steroids and my blood work is foreign to me now . Alc and trig went up plus everything else . I really want to be off these meds and see if I could be stricter with food and exercise, stress and try it that way first . Currently there is no mew inflammation and my ana was negative. They scare me bc they said humira needs to be started while on steriods .
Im in need of help. im getting sick from chronic steroids and need help weaning . Help!
Hey im sorry your dealing with this how are you doing now?😢
Functional medicine doctors and all the tests needed are out of budget for many people, sadly.
This was great. I have UC and have struggled to get it under control. Rinvoq seems to help, but is it really or is it just blocking? I'm going to look into your elimination diet and a FM doctor.
No medicine cures a disease…they will hurt you over time. Try to heal thru food elimination and anti-inflammatory diet.
Please cut out sugar and carbs, seriously even cooked carrots. No cows dairy maybe goat butter and milk. I was healed in 1 week although I kept on with it for a couple of months to heal my leaky gut!
It would have been great if hindi translation is available.
Do you have any advice on how to reverse Myasthenia gravis
Sounds wonderful but do most insurances support a patient going to a functional medicine doctor plus all of these tests? I doubt that they do. Besides, the pharmaceutical industry supports doctors to treat symptoms with medications, not the cause!
UA-cam is a great resource to learn and help make you the determiner of your fate and who is going to care more about you than you.
No they don't cover the cost, they only cover the big box health insurance, Aurora, Prejean, etc... they won't pay for services that actually help us, they only make money if we are sick😢
This sounds fantastic, are there any case studies we can see of people cured of M .S using health foods ?
YES! LOOK UP DR. TERRY WAHLS
Love the video, but would like to have a better audio and speak clearly. Content is very valuable and thank you so much for teaching some nutrition!
What about autoimmune cold Agglutinin hemolytic anemia? It affects blood.
I would love to work with a functional medicine doctor. Unfortunately where I live, Functional Medicine is 100% private healthcare and I was quoted $50,000 for 6 months of treatment, as everything from tests to pharmaceutical medicines to supplements to re-testing is all out-of-pocket expenses, aside from the hourly rate for the doctor. My insurance covers nothing outside of conventional medicine, I don't make enough money to cover the monthly costs, and I can't even borrow that amount, so Functional Medicine is unfortunately out of my reach. Here's hoping others have more access to Functional Medicine than we do in Canada. Seems like true healthcare is only for the rich here, unfortunately.
Drs are taught to write the prescriptions. We can change a lot of our problems by changing what we buy to eat.
Hi. Where can I get the show notes?
What was her main source of calories in this diet? Im trying carnivore to work on fixing my gut inflammation with high ANA scores (long time GERD/Silent reflux/severe bloating and gastritis). My problem is getting enough calories to not lose too much weight while on carnivore. Im currently 5'9" at 130lbs, normally 140 when on carbs. It seems each time i go into ketosis or start to, i get so weak and lethargic. I get diarrhea to the point of losing a bunch of water weight. I always get scared enough at this point ot bring fruit back in for carbs to offset it. Just seems to be an endless cycle. What ended up working for her diet wise?
Sounds like you need to up your fat intake if you’re loosing too much weight. Slap some extra grass fed butter onto your steaks, be sure to eat good fatty cuts of meat.
Hi Dr Hyman. I have autoimmune progesterone dermatitis and I've been searching for years for relief. The dermatologist gave me fexofenadine and steroid cream but these just mask the symptoms. Have you got a video or some info online that could help me?
How do I get in touch with you
I love your videos but wondering what you think of the carnivore diet.
Carnivore is king! Since I’ve been on it (18 months) all the pain in my joints have disappeared. If I cheat, I know about it the next day, the pain comes back.
I know it’s fashionable to bash big pharma but compliance is likely the biggest barrier to helping people to help themselves. The information is out there but it’s a lot of work and money to DIY.
All Big Pharma can do is hand out chemicals (I learned in grade school chemicals cause chemical reactions) you take the first chemical, in a few months you'll another chemical and pretty soon people are looking at a plethora of chemicals in medicine cabinet. No thank, growing up on a farm I learned about many natural remedies (which Dr's can't make any money on) and learn about soo many through the wonderful naturapathic Dr.s like Dr Hyman.
Barbara Oneill out of Australia has many herbal remedies and also herbs that prevent.
Thanks to all the wonderful people on UA-cam, we can edify our own health.
Do you take new patients? Many Chiropractors in our area call themselves functional medicine Doctors. Would you recommend against going to a non-MD functional medicine doctor?
Doctor i have a doubt

I’m on 6 different drugs!
Hello Doctor, I am from Iraq and I have some questions about my observations. I first noticed why people of German or Aryan origins always die from heart attacks, as well as African origin, as well as vitiligo and psoriasis.
Blood type as a broad approach. Hopefully as genetic diagnostics gets more affordable and precise we will know more
Heart Disease is the number one cause of death in the United States.
I am a visual learner… chart or list please!!!
Just take notes
And you’ve got the CDC controlling the testing guidelines for Lyme and coinfections ! So freaking sad!
Sounds great. All my $ goes to insurance and there’s nothing left.
There are many things that the doctor mentioned that you can do on your own
@@bug934Unless you have infection. You do need a functional doctor and a biological dentist for that. I can’t afford that so I’m stuck. I’ve been doing all the other stuff for 20+ years wondering why I only get worse. I just recently learned about the infections. So if you’re doing those things and not getting better, that’s probably it.
@@H.Michele you're right. We can only do so much
I believe our toxic food has made us all sick! Along with everything else! Environment, toiletries, clothing ect! It’s very frustrating! I’m in the process to heal my body from autoimmune. The more I learn, the angrier I get!
Can Kombucha upset your stomach if you’re Celiac?
I learned in this channel that fermented foods are not good for people with histamine intolerance.
@@carolinaolivera7632
Spot on!
Take histamine block or defense 1/2 hour before breakfast and dinner.
Can you mention EGPA please.
My wife thinks here autoimmune is special and different and non of this information applies to her.
Does this include fibro-myalgia?
hi. do you free help over text. my husband has been ill for like a year and all the doctors have differeing opinions and NO answers! need help
Because the food
An I still feel like crap!!
How can a person have a very high ANA score and no inflammation?
Does It got something to do with us being farther from the sun? 🤔 or does it got something to do with are vitamin and minerals levels? There is so much junk, in our food anymore... So what do we do?? I've had multiple sclerosis for over 30 yrs now.. Doctor's these days are confused about these diseases also.. What should we do, is the key question. If we have one disease, we can get all diseases, this world is just scary anymore..
