Autoimmune Conditions — Why the Immune System Turns on Itself (And How to Calm It Naturally)

Autoimmune diseases are rising at an alarming rate — especially among women — and most people don't understand why. In this episode, Dr. Bryan Joseph and Dr. Olivia Joseph break down what autoimmunity really is, what triggers it (from Epstein–Barr and COVID to leaky gut, hormone imbalance, and chronic stress), and why your genes are not your destiny. You'll learn how functional medicine approaches autoimmune conditions differently, how remission is possible, and why gut health, blood sugar balance, detox pathways, and inflammation all matter. If you or someone you love is dealing with Hashimoto's, rheumatoid arthritis, or unexplained autoimmune symptoms, this conversation could change how you think about healing.
