The Hidden Drivers of Autoimmune Disease with Dr. Marc Kesselman
About this episode
Haylie Pomroy and Dr. Marc Kesselman discuss the hidden drivers of autoimmune disease and what patients can do about them.
What is actually driving the rise in autoimmune disease? In today's episode, Haylie Pomroy is joined by Dr. Marc Kesselman, Chair of Internal Medicine and Chief of Rheumatology at Nova Southeastern University, to dig into the hidden drivers of autoimmune disease and what patients can actually do about them. Dr. Kesselman breaks down how COVID-19, vaccine adjuvants, environmental toxins, gut microbiome imbalance, and Epstein-Barr virus all contribute to the rising wave of autoimmune conditions. He explains why non-celiac gluten sensitivity is real even when tests come back negative, how food rotation and plant diversity help protect the microbiome, and why autoantibodies can appear in the bloodstream 15 to 20 years before a single symptom shows up. He also covers a piece of the autoimmune conversation that most patients never hear: why chronic inflammation significantly raises cardiovascular risk even when cholesterol looks normal, and which tests can catch it before it becomes a crisis.
