It takes the average autoimmune patient 10 years and visiting 20 doctors before receiving an autoimmune diagnosis. There is very little medical training on autoimmunity and the disease must be quite advanced before doctors can intervene. In the meantime, patients suffer not knowing what to do.

As a result, you must take charge of your own health and education when it comes to autoimmunity. Ample research exists on strategies to manage autoimmunity and drive it into remission.

I see my patients run into 10 common challenges when managing their autoimmunity. One thing you won't find on this list is a supplement deficiency. Instead, key dietary and lifestyle habits, and attitudes about your own health play the most important roles in managing autoimmunity for many people.

In this podcast I outline the top 10 reasons why people with autoimmunity don’t get better, and then I answer questions from listeners.
