Dr. Darla Booth, a functional medicine practitioner specializing in autoimmune diseases, shared her journey and insights in this audio conversation. She began by focusing on optimizing lab work and noticing common autoimmune markers in women, which led her to specialize in managing autoimmunity. Dr. Booth's personal experience with autoimmune markers in herself and her daughter further motivated her to delve deeper into this field.

The conversation highlighted the challenges in autoimmune diagnosis, emphasizing the limitations of routine blood tests and the need for more comprehensive testing. Dr. Booth stressed the importance of knowing how to interpret and act on autoimmune test results, a key aspect of functional medicine. She also discussed the significant role of stress and trauma in triggering autoimmunity, particularly in women, often linked to hormonal shifts or stressful life events.

Diet and lifestyle factors were central to the discussion. Dr. Booth emphasized the importance of individualized dietary approaches, considering factors like gluten and dairy intolerance. She recommended protein at every meal for blood sugar stabilization and discussed the benefits of supplements like vitamin D and glutathione for immune support. The conversation also touched on the significance of the microbiome and addressing leaky gut in managing autoimmune conditions.

Lastly, Dr. Booth shared her integrated approach to health care, combining traditional chiropractic adjustments with modern techniques like cold laser therapy and biohacking methods such as shock wave therapy and infrared saunas. She emphasized the importance of tailoring treatments to individual needs and the potential of these approaches to improve overall health and reduce the need for invasive procedures.
