Dr. Terry Wahls: The best diet for reducing bloating, inflammation, and other digestive/autoimmune issues

If you were given an incurable diagnosis, how would you respond? Would you believe it and give in, or search for an alternative solution? 

In our journey towards health and wholeness, we need to remember that the answers often lie beneath the surface. And that just because someone says something is true - doesn’t mean it is!

And this week’s guest turns everything you thought you knew about health and medicine on its head. 

In this episode of Biohacking Bestie I’m joined by Dr. Terry Wahls, a physician who reversed her own autoimmune disease process with a holistic protocol. She shares how she took charge of her health by researching and targeting her mitochondria with a supplement protocol, electrical stimulation of muscles and a specialized diet based on functional medicine principles.

We also explore her challenges with the vegan diet, leading to a return to meat consumption after considering ancestral dietary patterns, her autoimmune protocol for optimal health, and the importance of questioning and tuning into how different foods make us feel.

Dr. Wahls was confined to a tilt-recline wheelchair for four years. She restored her health using a diet and lifestyle program she designed specifically for her brain and now pedals her bike to work each day. She is the author of “The Wahls Protocol”, and the cookbook “Cooking for Life”.
