Encore: The Root Of Autoimmunity That NO ONE is Talking About


Listen Later

In this eye-opening episode, Dr. Nicole Rivera dives deep into the often misunderstood world of autoimmunity. While conventional conversations tend to focus on genetics, diagnoses, or isolated immune dysfunction, Dr. Nicole challenges the surface-level narratives and unpacks what’s really driving autoimmune conditions behind the scenes.

From gut health to neurological decline, environmental toxins to testing limitations, this episode explores how a broken foundation—rather than just bad luck or bad genes—sets the stage for chronic immune issues. If you or a loved one has been chasing labels like lupus, RA, or autoimmune diabetes without getting answers, this is the missing link you’ve been looking for.

You’ll learn why “one-size-fits-all” protocols rarely work and how to start asking the right questions that actually lead to transformation.

👇 What You’ll Learn:

  • Why diagnosis ≠ root cause—and how that distinction changes everything

  • How your gut, brain, and immune system are more connected than you think

  • The myths around GMOs, toxins, and the blood-brain barrier you need to know

  • Why younger generations are seeing a rise in autoimmune diabetes

  • What most protocols miss when treating immune dysfunction

    🧠 Noteworthy Time Stamps:

    02:10 – It’s not about the diagnosis—it’s about the root cause
    05:36 – Immune system 101: How it actually works
    11:23 – GMOs, toxins & your immune response

    🔥 Quotes to Remember:

    "Autoimmunity isn’t about fighting your body—it’s about your body fighting for balance in a broken system."
    "Treating symptoms without investigating root causes is like painting over rust and calling it restored."
