Do scents bother you? The Surprising Connection Between Chemical Sensitivities, Hashimoto's, and Autoimmunity
Unraveling the Hidden Link Between Everyday Chemicals and Autoimmune Health
In this episode of "The Hashimoto's Doctor Podcast", we dive deep into the often-overlooked connection between chemical sensitivities and autoimmune conditions, especially Hashimoto's. Ever wondered why certain scents make you feel unwell or why some environments trigger a flare-up? We're unraveling this mystery.
Our exploration will shed light on the phenomenon of haptination, where chemicals bind to our proteins, leading to new antigens that our immune system mistakenly attacks. We'll discuss the role of the body's master antioxidant, glutathione, and the significance of a healthy gut microbiome in maintaining immune balance.
As we delve into the principles of functional medicine, we'll emphasize the importance of understanding individual body responses, the role of diet, and strategies to strengthen our immune system against chemical triggers. This episode is a treasure trove of information for anyone looking to understand the intricate dance between chemicals and our immune system.
Join us on this enlightening journey as we uncover the surprising links between everyday chemicals, Hashimoto's, and autoimmunity. Whether you're battling chemical sensitivities, curious about the science behind it, or simply looking to optimize your health, this episode is a must-listen.
