Dr. Datis Kharrazian
The Role of Molecular Mimicry in Autoimmunity
- Important cross-reactivity research pertaining to Hashimoto’s thyroiditis and several other autoimmune conditions
- A breakdown of the physiology & immunology – what we know about how and why this happens
- Details about how this research is done – and what the clinical value may be in the future
- Gluten sensitivity as a neurological illness, not just something which impacts the GI tract

You Will Get Clarity On:
- The basic physiology of autoimmunity – what happens, how, and why?
- The roles food play in regard to autoimmunity (potential trigger and important for recovery!)
- Where to start with functional lab testing for suspected autoimmune disease
- How generally thought-to-be “safe” foods can trigger an autoimmune reaction against our own tissues
- Sources of hidden toxins in your home and/or workplace that can contribute to systemic inflammation and an imbalanced immune system
- The Cell Danger Response – and what this newly discovered physiological occurrence means for autoimmunity
- How hidden, chronic infections can trigger systemic inflammation and autoimmunity – and some solutions to dealing with these pathogens
- Genetic predisposition and what can be done to alter your gene expression (epigenetics) in a positive way
- How EMF saturation can “wake up” hidden infections and trigger autoimmunity for many people
- Stress and emotional trauma as powerful drivers of autoimmune conditions (and what to do about it)
- How our microbiome “trains” and modulates our immune system, what happens when it becomes damaged or imbalanced, and how to fix it
- How our separation nature harms our physiology – and ways to regain that sacred connection
- Cutting-edge technologies driving powerful new therapies for the treatment of autoimmunity and other chronic health conditions
- The role of the brain and nervous system when it comes to chronic inflammation and autoimmunity
- How cortisol (yes, that cortisol!) is essential for your body’s efforts to destroy autoimmune cells – and how to optimize it
- Many ways that hormonal birth control use can contribute to autoimmunity, and how to repair any damage after the pill
