Are You Treating Symptoms Instead of Root Causes? With Dr. Kelly McCann

About this episode

Lisa Fischer discusses chronic illness and the importance of addressing root causes with Dr. Kelly McCann.

Chronic illness, sleep issues, and inflammation—are you treating symptoms or the root cause? In this powerful episode of Lisa Fischer Said , Lisa sits down with Dr. Kelly McCann to unpack why conventional medicine often misses the bigger picture. They explore functional medicine, environmental toxins, and how trauma, hormones, and lifestyle all play a role in chronic illness. Dr. McCann shares how conditions like autoimmune disease, poor sleep, and fatigue may stem from hidden triggers like mold, Lyme disease, and nervous system dysregulation—not just bad luck or genetics. If you've ever felt stuck in a cycle of prescriptions without real answers, this conversation offers a new lens—and real hope—for healing from the inside out. 👉 Subscribe to the Lisa Fischer Said Podcast, join the newsletter at https://lisafischersaid.com/podcast/ , and follow @lisafischersaid for more.
