Battling Autoimmunity and Reinventing Your Diet with Dr. Stephanie Nielsen

There are two kinds of people we usually learn from on The DNA Talks Podcast: a patient who has been cured of a chronic disease or an expert in the field who is capable of pinpointing the root causes and solutions to them. Today, we get to learn from Dr. Stephanie Nielsen, who is considered both and continues to be a stellar example of how a decision to change and commit to a lifestyle that suits your DNA is the best decision you could ever make in your lifetime.Dr. Stephanie Nielsen is currently a Functional Genomics Practitioner at The DNA Company. She earned her Doctor of Pharmacy degree (Pharm.D.) at the University of Nebraska. Her clinical degree focused on integrative studies where she was responsible for prescribing and managing drug therapies for patients. She spent the next decade educating physicians on appropriate drug therapy applications.Currently, Dr. Nielsen works in conjunction with a number of physicians, chiropractors, naturopaths, and acupuncturists as she specializes in difficult nutritional cases that often deal with allergies and autoimmune issues.Throughout the discussion, Kashif and Dr. Stephanie go through Dr. Stephanie's personal experience with her celiac disease, an autoimmune disease wherein the presence of gluten makes a person's immune system attack the body. Dr. Stephanie discusses how she was able to overcome this by simply being mindful of her lifestyle and maintaining it even after she has gotten better.Aside from reinventing your lifestyle and diet, Kashif and Dr. Stephanie also touch on the development of vitamins and how crucial they are in today's time.
