#86: Autoimmune Healing with Dr. Micah Yu

Is it possible to heal autoimmune conditions using nontraditional approaches? That’s where we’re going on  this week’s episode!

Dr. Micah Yu, a Rheumatologist AND Integrative/Functional Medicine physician is our guest. He has a fresh approach to tackling autoimmune diseases and knows personally how important diet, lifestyle and hidden stressors can impact the immune system. By changing his diet, he was able to reverse his own autoimmune condition.

If you are battling autoimmune problems, don’t settle for just the prescription approach. Listen up and learn how to advocate for your health, find the root cause and make long lasting changes instead of patching a problem with a pill.

PS: He has some super fun social media posts you need to follow too!
