42: Wearable Technology and Autoimmune Health

About this episode

The episode discusses the impact of wearable technology on managing autoimmune diseases with insights from health coach Alissa Klein.

In this episode, Jaime and Marie-Noelle welcome Alissa Klein , an AIP Certified Coach and National Board Certified Health Coach, to talk about the role of wearable technology in managing autoimmune disease. Alissa shares her own healing journey navigating multiple autoimmune diagnoses over more than a decade before discovering AIP and the Hashimoto's Protocol, and how those personal experiences led her to a career in health coaching.

The conversation dives into how Alissa uses data from wearable devices, specifically the Oura Ring, to help patients uncover personal triggers, identify patterns, and make proactive adjustments to their care plans. She explains the key metrics most relevant to autoimmunity — heart rate variability (HRV), body temperature, and resting heart rate — and shares a compelling real-world example of how tracking those metrics allowed her to detect an oncoming flare in a patient before symptoms became severe. Marie-Noelle and Jaime also share their own experiences with wearable tech…
