Guest Zuleika Sassa shares her experience of overcoming the symptoms of Rheumatoid Arthritis with movement and diet.

 Zuleika runs a health and wellness business called Sassafit.  Zuleika specialises in helping women with autoimmunity issues, bone health, perimenopause and menopause Health.

After being diagnosed with Juvenile Arthritis at 13 years old, Zuleika was told not to do sports, and there was not much information to support her condition at the time.  Luckily, Zuleika's family had ideas based on Ayurvedic medicine and their knowledge of movement and martial arts. 

Zuleika's lifetime of training and nutrition has taken her to practice sports for a living and teach women and girls how to become stronger.  Zuleika has trained in nutrition and personal training (levels 2 and 3), is also a black belt in martial arts and has achieved medals for Marathons to Tough Mudders, which was all over 40 years old with Arthritis.  

Zuleika's aim is to help women, encourage them to asses their health patterns and watch them regain their health and mindset.   

Zuleika is doing an inspirational and educational session in the Energise week of The Complete Autoimmune RESET, as well as a week of training sessions. You can join The Complete Autoimmune RESET on 22 February, starting on 8 March 2023. 

Highlights from today's episode include:

  • How Zueika was able to overcome her symptoms of arthritis as a teenager with nutrient-dense foods and movement.
  • The importance of staying on track and Zuleika's return to health after not focusing on her health in her 20s. 
  • The effect of weight gain on arthritis and why movement is key to maintaining a healthy weight. 
  • Why cooking from scratch can be so beneficial for your health. 
  • The power of strength training and working on your core for optimal health and fitness.
