About this listen
The Autoimmune Answer is your road map for healing from autoimmune disease naturally. No high-powered immune-suppressing medications necessary.
Each chapter of this book presents a real case from Dr. Bartemus' office and uses it to help you understand the specific autoimmune disease being discussed in that chapter.
From symptoms, to key findings in their past medical records that were overlooked, to relevant testing, to creating an individualized and specific care plan, each chapter walks you through the journey of a real person from suffering to healing.
The autoimmune diseases covered in this audiobook include:
- Parkinson's disease
- Psoriasis
- Crohn's disease
- PANDAS and PANS
- Traumatic brain injury-induced autoimmunity
- Celiac disease
- Gluten sensitivity
- Thyroid autoimmunity - Grave's disease and Hashimoto's disease
Other topics include:
- Gut-brain axis
- Microbiome health
- Depression and anxiety
The book also covers the spectrum of food reactions, from food allergy to food sensitivity to food intolerance, and helps you understand and determine which one(s) you are suffering with and how to correct them.
Which diet is the right diet for you? Find out how to determine which diet is the correct diet for you in your current situation. Is it a ketogenic diet? Is it a paleo diet? Is it a gluten-free or low FODMAP diet?
Lastly, you will learn why you cannot "Dr. Google" yourself to health if you have an autoimmune disease. And you will be empowered with the information you need to find and create the healing you desire.

Story
Over 90 percent of the population suffers from inflammation or an autoimmune disorder. Until now, conventional medicine has said there is no cure. Minor irritations like rashes and runny noses are ignored, while chronic and debilitating diseases like Crohn's and rheumatoid arthritis are handled with a cocktail of toxic treatments that fail to address their root cause. But it doesn't have to be this way.

Because of our highly processed diet, pesticides, and overuse of antibiotics, our guts are now missing so many of the good bacteria that we require to be healthy. As a result, many of us have lost control over our health, weight, mood, and even behavior. With cutting-edge research, Dr. Davis connects the dots between gut health and modern ailments such as SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth), a silent and profound epidemic, which affects one out of three people and is responsible for an astounding range of human health conditions.

In Mitochondria and the Future of Medicine, naturopathic doctor Lee Know tells the epic story of mitochondria - the widely misunderstood and often-overlooked powerhouses of our cells. The legendary saga began over two billion years ago, when one bacterium entered another without being digested, which would evolve to create the first mitochondrion. Since then, for life to exist beyond single-celled bacteria, it's the mitochondria that have been responsible for this life-giving energy.

A book to be bought in paper format, not as audio!

An internship with a health detective
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
I'll try to find a functional medicine doctor and work with him/her as the book suggests.
But I have to say this book opened my eyes that it's not just about the diet. It's so much more.
Compared to the other books that I read on health this one was by far the most helpful. It's not complete but what it does is put you on a good path. If you want a diet book this is not it, but that's not what I needed.
I want to mention that I already wasted a lot of money on specialist doctors and different tests but nothing improved so I will seek out a functional medicine doctor next.
This is literally gold

Now, I don't advocate watching TV. Still, when I go to the gym and see ten different stations playing at once, 80 percent of the advertising is from Big Pharma Companies- illness is so profitable in America it can make a person sick just thinking about it. Big Pharma influences big medical schools (i.e., your doctors), Lobbyists / influences our congressional leaders, and advertises on most of the top web search results.
Healing people is not good business for Big Pharma- so don't expect to get better if your doctor is quick to give you a pill without actually trying to do the hard work of figuring out why you feel like you do... Healing might be possible for many, but a pill probably isn't going to be healing- it might help manage your symptoms, but until you address the root cause of your illness, you will continue to try to manage your symptoms and continue contributing to the profits of Big Pharma.
This book exposes this reality and gives hope to those who are suffering chronically.
