Dr. Taylor Krick answers the 11 Burning Autoimmune Questions Answered — from childhood eczema labs and gut health to food sensitivities, leaky gut, and the real root causes of autoimmune disease using a functional medicine approach. Whether you’re struggling with inflammatory skin conditions, confused about the autoimmune paleo diet, or wondering about ferritin, iron overload, MTHFR, methylation, and high homocysteine — this episode breaks it all down.
You’ll also learn why your omega-3 dose is probably too low, what vitamin D levels you should actually target, whether magnesium supplementation is overhyped, and how to use supplements strategically with macro and micro cycles instead of guessing. Dr. Taylor explains the cell danger response, seed oils, oxidative stress, and why a nuanced functional approach beats one-size-fits-all protocols every time.
