580: Pulling Back The Veil On Chronic Illness with Dr. Sina McCullough

from Wise Traditions · host Kendall Nelson

In this powerful first conversation, Dr. Sina McCullough shares how she went from a vibrant, athletic life to being so sick she could no longer stand, eat, or care for herself—and how she found her way back.   Despite her PhD in nutrition, Sina spent years searching for answers within the medical system, only to be told her symptoms were "all in her head." At her lowest point, she chose a different path—one that led her to uncover hidden toxicities, nutrient deficiencies, and overlooked food sensitivities that were keeping her body from healing.   In this episode, she introduces the concept of "The Veil"—the unseen trust we place in our food system—and challenges the idea that chronic illness is something we must simply manage. Instead, she offers a powerful reframe: the body is designed to heal when we remove what harms it and restore what's missing.   We also explore why diets often fail, the difference between remission and true healing, and the critical role of emotional and spiritual stress in long-term health.   Sina's message is both sobering and hopeful: healing is possible—and it begins with seeing clearly.   Stay tuned for Part 2.

The Real World Radical Media Group We live in a sick and sad world, where we value only what we can see. We see others and judge without knowing. We live in a world where social class is valued more than human quality. We live in a world where books and culture take second place, where money, lust and perversions are more vital than knowledge. We live in a world where we have forgotten traditions, values and God.
