Are you tired of battling autoimmune symptoms like joint pain, fatigue, or gut issues?

In this episode, I sit down with Miranda from the Wildly Thriving podcast to talk about the real root causes of autoimmune disease and why conventional medicine keeps missing the mark.

What We Cover:

• The 3-legged stool of autoimmunity: genetic predisposition, intestinal permeability (leaky gut), and environmental triggers
• Why 80% of people with autoimmune diseases report significant emotional stress right before diagnosis
• How childhood trauma and adverse experiences increase your risk of autoimmune disease, heart disease, and cancer
• The polyvagal theory and why your nervous system is either keeping you sick or helping you heal
• Practical vagus nerve tools you can start using today
• Why extreme diets (vegan, carnivore, etc.) might give you initial relief but aren't the long-term answer
• The difference between functional medicine lab testing and conventional labs
• My RISE framework: Root cause identification, Integrative protocols, Support & supplementation, and Elimination of symptoms

In this episode, Ryan breaks down the often misunderstood world of methylation which is one of the most fundamental biochemical processes for optimal health. We dive deep into what methylation really is, how it affects everything from energy, hormones, detoxification, brain health, autoimmunity, fertility, and mood, and why it plays such a big role in healing from chronic illness.

What we cover in this episode:

• • The real-life symptoms of poor methylation
  • What can block your methylation pathways
  • Why checking for MTHFR gene mutations isn’t the whole story and what truly matters
  • The best nutrients to naturally support your methylation
  • How methylation influences DNA repair, neurotransmitter production, fat metabolism, hormone balance, detox, and energy
  • The biggest myths about MTHFR and methylation (and why most people are looking at it the wrong way)
