Guest Bio: 

Dr. David Bilstrom is a quadruple board certified MD and Medical Director of International Autoimmune Institute.  Dr. Bilstrom has helped thousands of chronically ill patients reverse autoimmune disease (which the science data says also prevents future disease) because he treats at the root cause.  He's spent almost 30 years striving to treat people using protocols that don't create more disease.  He's a Functional Medicine expert who is passionate about helping kids reset their epigenetics before age 19 to prevent chronic disease and helping kids and adults optimize their epigenetics to improve the health of their next 6 to 8 generations.  Illness because of "old age" is a myth until you reach 90 years of age.  Prevention is much easier than the traditional medical industry leads people to believe.
