Let's all appreciate that no ads are shown during the video

I revervsed my diabetes, and lowered my cholesterol as well as got my thyroid better on my own. I feel great! The shacks of diabetes was the worsed, but no more. They say you are what you eat. SO TRUE!!

i almost don't want to see my afternoon patients just to finish this lecture bc of how enlightening it is. thank you doctors for paving the way for us new doctors. 4 years post residency and since following Dr Hyman's channel my medical knowledge doubled maybe tripled because this isn't really stressed much.

The story Hyman told about the man who is allergic to fish and the mere smell of it caused a reaction speaks VOLUMES. Now, i know why aroma of various things affect me. Thank you!! I thought i was crazy

I was alive 35 healthy years, then was forced to get an experimental gene therapy or be fired from my paramedic job, and one week after, I develop two auto-immune diseases. Now I take expensive meds for the rest of my life. But hey! Safe and Effective!

Our bodies are weakened by processed food lack of exercise and loss of quality vegetables

Functional Doctors who give away healing knowledge for free, God will bless you. I think we're at a point we should help each other, rich, poor, and anyone in between. I've gotten so much help from just listening and researching. I do try to help others, but many are so programmed by the whitecoat system of you know what i mean. 😢

Dr. Hyman, I'm a practicing Psychotherapist and i have had MS for 11 years in remission (one relapse in between that i don't like to consider a major one, it was just eye twitching, and then i was put on solumedrol and it went away) Other than that, i have been okay and i give great credit to being active (trained classical dancer) and eliminating processed foods. The only difference is that now, 11 years later i went heavy on alcohol (daily consumption for 3 months), lots of stress, and lots of fast food+ procesed foods again :: the result? A relapse. Numbness returned and i was heavy on the left side of my body . When you have MS for so long and have remained mostly perfectly okay, you forget. I did. And i took everything for granted. I almost considered getting on a DMT but my body revolts so HARD that i experience anxiety for days whenever i think about going that way... Your video has given me hope. Your video has fueled my desire to keep the good fight going . I'd love to reach out to you if possible. Please tell me how this is possible.

Sadly, most people do not have access to competent health care. And if you seek out a functional medicine physician most of them do not accept insurance so you'll need to pay out of pocket. I've researched this in NC where I live. And Medicare - ugh! I thought when I finally was able to get Medicare things would be easier with regard to seeing doctors but it has actually been proven to be harder since many physicians do not accept Medicare anymore. I appreciate all of the information Dr. Hyman provides (as well as others like him) however most of what he suggests and recommends costs money that many people do not have out of pocket. It shouldn't be like this - everyone should have access to competent healthcare. But most doctors don't even ask you about your diet or lifestyle and seem to just want to get you in and out quickly - or prescribe a pill.

we want you to do more of this often. thanks dr.mark.

Be careful with what people write if it is too good to be true step back and don’t trust anyone to be on the safe side. There are hunters for innocent ignorant people. Nothing is easy except spending but getting money in an honest ethical ways is very very hard and difficult.

I’m having Daily battle with Addison’s disease. It’s a nightmare not on any medication but I am doing better hopefully in the right direction by taking natural vitamins, supplements, and a lot of prayers.

Thank you! I appreciate your program on these issues affecting so many. Autoimmunity need to be a specialty all on its own. Always learning. 🙏

Great information! I thank you both!

I think you should include plastic in with heavy metals. We are exposed plastic everywhere.

I am 59 and had eczema allergies and acne for as long as I remember. Stopped eating wheat and sugar in 2020 and within 2 weeks my eczema disappeared and skin cleared up. Who knew that I didn’t need lotions potions creams and few years stint of Roaccutane! I always been health conscious and asked many doctors if I need to change anything in my diet. The answer was resounding NO and that bloating after eating bread was normal. I got frustrated and told one nutritionist that advising people that diet doesn’t matter is irresponsible and disempowering. Her answer was - eczema is multi factorial. I rest my case …

Thx dr Hyman for this fantastic interview with a Great Master.

Ya this reminds of my neighbour who was a clean freak when her kids were very young. Everything in her house was unimaginably spotless and disinfected including the kids toys, everything, and not allowing them play in the dirt or pick up all the usual things kids do. Yet for all of those measures her kids were regularly ill and picking up bugs and viruses etc every time they mixed with other kids and returned to school after a break. When we were kids, yes, our parents kept us washed and the house reasonably clean but we were still getting grubby and playing in mud and picking up "dirty" toys and items off the ground... and we just didn't get sick anywhere close on the frequency these neighbours clean freak parents kids did. It seems pretty obvious to me that being exposed to all the various bacteria and nasty microbes etc in SMALL QUANTITIES, had introduced our immune system to them and so we could deal with them unlike these kids from clean freaks parents house. I say this because medically speaking, so far as I'm aware, there was nothing wrong or inherently wrong with these perfectly normal kids other than the fact they were kept "bubble wrapped" from all things "bad", so when they did actually mix with other kids and play with items from other places, their under-exposed immune systems were almost immediately overwhelmed and they became ill where other kids, albeit with snotty noses and coughs etc, didn't fall ill.

I have been researching autoimmune disease and allergies for close to 40 years. The basic problem is that people get sensitive to viruses. Viruses are usually benign however there are 7 different viruses that all of sudden the body starts reacting to one of them "mistakingly ". Reeducating the body to not react to them and also reducing their quantity usually solves the problem .There are some exceptions EG type 1 diabetes In which the pancreas is severely hurt by the disease process before a practitioner discovers the diagnosis.

I was watching this podcast with so MUCH enthusiasm and listening so attentively because all this is so true ... Until the other doctor NOT Hyman started getting this White Foam on the corner of his mouth and I just could not keep watching this! Hyman why did you not tell him or give him a sign hey Wipe the corner of your mouth you have Drive Saliva or foam coming out? I mean come on ...Nonethless; what I could watch I really appreciated
