The End of Autoimmunity: Dr. Stillman on Fixing What Medicine Missed
Illumined Wellness Podcast
Why do high-achieving, driven people get hit hardest by autoimmune disease — and what can you actually do about it? In this episode, Dr. Stillman (author of The End of Autoimmunity) breaks down why autoimmunity tends to strike the most capable, conscientious people in the prime of their lives — and why chronic fatigue, brain fog, and inflammation are so often just the surface labels for deeper issues like heavy metal burden, mold toxicity, hidden infections, and nutritional deficiencies. We get into: 🔆 Why morning sunlight is non-negotiable (and what to do if you live somewhere dark and cold) 🌙 The hidden cost of artificial light at night — from shift work to carotid artery plaque 🧠 The "driven" personality type and why it makes you more prone to burnout and autoimmune flare-ups 🍽️ The simple habit shift (moving your dinner time up) that can transform your sleep 💛 Why five minutes of encouragement a day matters more than you think If you're tired, foggy, and feel like something's "off" even though your labs look normal — this one's for you. 📖 New book: The End of Autoimmunity Find Dr. Stillman on social media! @StillmanMD Dr Stillman's Products Links from Episode 🔗 Find Dr. Stillman: 👉 Instagram/X/Facebook: @StillmanMD 👉 Substack: drstillmanuncensored.com 👉https://stillmanmd.com/ 🔗 Andrew's work: 👉 IlluminedWellness.com | humanality.org | smart-families.org 🔔 Subscribe for weekly conversations on the art of living human.
