Healing Lyme Starts on Your Plate: Nutrition as Medicine with Dr. Marie Matheson

Dr. Myriah Hinchey and Dr. Marie Matheson discuss Lyme disease nutrition, food as medicine, inflammation, leaky gut, terrain theory, detoxification, and practical dietary strategies for healing chronic illness.In this episode of LymeBytes!, I sit down with Dr. Marie Matheson, BSc, ND, a naturopathic doctor specializing in complex chronic illness, to explore why nutrition is one of the most powerful—and most overlooked—tools in healing Lyme disease and co-infections.Dr. Matheson explains how strategic dietary changes can improve symptoms by 20–40% before medical protocols even begin. We discuss terrain theory, immune resilience, and why food choices directly influence inflammation, detoxification, gut integrity, and microbial balance. This conversation breaks down the most inflammatory foods to remove, the nutrient-dense foods that accelerate healing, and practical kitchen strategies that make real-life implementation possible—even on low-energy days.This episode is essential listening for anyone navigating Lyme disease, mold illness, or chronic inflammation who wants to build a solid nutritional foundation that amplifies every other treatment approach.Dr. Pamela Cipriano, DNP, APRN, is a doctor of nursing practice who specializes in chronic Lyme disease and complex, multisystem illness. Her work focuses on uncovering hidden infections, addressing immune dysfunction, and using integrative strategies to help patients recover when conventional care falls short.Website: https://www.thepracticeofhealthandwellness.com/about-me Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Dr.Pamela.Cipriano/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/practicehealthwellness/?hl=enMyriah Hinchey, ND, FMAPS⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/drmyriahhinchey/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/lymecore⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://shop.lymebytes.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://shop.lymecore.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Special thanks to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TruDose⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠OxyHealth⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠PODCASTThank you for listening.Please subscribe and share.This podcast is produced by DrTalks.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://drtalks.com/podcast-service/
