478. Dr Brad Leech - Understand the 4 things that can lead to autoimmunity to drive effective treatment and healing.

Dr Brad Leech, PhD, first joined me on the show (#437) for a discussion to update the record on a common practice when addressing pathogens: “weed, seed, feed” which he believes can cause further damage. In this episode, we explore Autoimmunity and the 4 main ‘feeder lanes’ into it, drawing on the thousands of hours Brad has spent researching it during his PhD and beyond. We cover Leaky Gut Dysbiosis in the gut Immune dysregulation Systemic Inflammation Gut testing: What is ‘good’ testing? Essential nutrients in an autoimmune picture and how to ensure quality supplements. Why we can’t label some foods as inherently ‘good for you’ based on certain farming factors that can change a food’s make-up. Microbes of note in the research that can contribute to healing, disease or both, depending on how much there is in the gut And MORE I hope it’s helpful for you or someone you know.
