From a clinical standpoint, insofar as functional medicine is concerned, whether you present with rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, ulcerative colitis, or systemic lupus erythematosus—the fundamental objective is the same: heal the gut. Hippocrates understood the inextricably intertwined relationship between the systemic health of the organism and the nine-meter tube from…

Australian National University (ANU) researchers believe they have discovered the potential cause of the autoimmune disease lupus. Senior researcher Vicki Athanasopoulos from the ANU John Curtin School of Medical Research (JCSMR) said in an ANU news release that the discovery of a gene called Toll-like receptor seven or TLR7 that, when over-activated, causes the autoimmune disease…
The Critical Differences Between A1 and A2 Milk
Dairy is a common trigger for autoimmune and chronic diseases. Consequently, sometimes people reluctantly remove dairy from their diet in an attempt to heal themselves. I went dairy-free for roughly five years in order to reverse rheumatoid arthritis. I believe removing all dairy from my diet was a critical step in my healing journey. However, if…

Older people with hypothyroidism, also called underactive thyroid, may be at increased risk of developing dementia, according to a new study. The risk of developing dementia is even higher for people whose condition required thyroid hormone replacement medication, the researchers report. Hypothyroidism occurs when the thyroid gland doesn’t make enough thyroid hormones, which can slow metabolism. Symptoms…
Fasting for Autoimmune Diseases
The strongest evidence of the benefits of fasting surrounds the treatment of an autoimmune joint disease known as rheumatoid arthritis, as I detailed in my last video. There was a German study suggesting benefits for osteoarthritis as well, with reported improvements in pain and joint function. But we’d really need randomized controlled studies to know…

The Edith Cowan University’s (ECU) genetic study on oats has shown why oats could be the answer for most people with coeliac disease and gluten intolerance. “We discovered that oats have fewer of the proteins that correspond to gluten in wheat, causing an immune reaction from people with coeliac disease,” said ECU Prof. Michelle Colgrave…
Celiac Disease
What is Celiac Disease? Just about everybody loves the smell of freshly baked whole-wheat bread, but not everyone can afford to take a bite. For anyone with celiac disease, this treat is practically poison. People with this condition are extremely sensitive to gluten, a class of proteins found in all foods made with wheat, rye,…
Another Health Threat: Drug-Resistant Mold Infections
British researchers are warning of one more rising health danger: a drug-resistant mold found in the environment that infects certain people’s lungs. Aspergillus fumigatus can cause a fungal lung infection called aspergillosis in people with lung conditions or weakened immune systems. Aspergillosis, which affects 10 to 20 million people worldwide, is usually treated with antifungal drugs, but…
