Autoimmunity & Food with Dr. Terry Wahls

Needless to say, the food we eat can also have a profound effect on our health, both good and bad.  Food is the most important factor influencing our immune system.  When functioning properly, the immune system protects us from these foreign invaders.  However, sometimes the immune system can become dysregulated and overactive, leading to autoimmune disease.  There are many factors that can contribute to the development of an autoimmune disease, but one of the most important is diet.  For example, a diet high in sugar and refined carbs can promote inflammation throughout the body and lead to autoimmunity.  Understanding the relationship between food and the immune system is essential in order to maintain health and prevent disease. In fact, the best part is you can use food to improve your autoimmune condition.  In this episode, Dr. Terry Wahls, speaks about the connection between food and autoimmunity and how the right diet can help improve your condition.  So, if you are suffering from an autoimmune disease, or think you may be at risk, watch this video to learn more about how diet can impact your health.***About the Guest***Dr. Terry Wahls is an Institute for Functional Medicine Certified Practitioner and a clinical professor of medicine at the University of Iowa where she conducts clinical trials in the setting of Multiple Sclerosis.  In 2018 she was awarded the Institute for Functional Medicine’s Linus Pauling Award for her contributions in research, clinical care, and patient advocacy.
