About this audiobook
The Autoimmune Answer is your roadmap 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 book 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 FODMAPS 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.
