Winning the battle - How this doctor healed herself without use of conventional medicine.

Author: Jonathan Otto January 14, 2020 Duration: 1:04:32
Victorious in her battle with Ulcerative colitis, Dr. Sruti Lam (MD, ND, functional medicine practitioner and nutrition specialist) shares her personal testimony in how she healed naturally and without the use of conventional medicine. Although there are different possible risk factors that may cause the body to attack itself (genetics, childhood, immunizations, environmental toxins, stress, sleeping habits) Dr. Lam explains that she is most concerned with the Standard American Diet (SAD) and the effects of pharmaceutical drugs on the immune system. Conventional medicine tends to treat the symptoms of a disease, putting a bandaid on the wound. A holistic approach, in which we prevent the triggers that cause symptoms before the disease is ever present, is the true answer to curing the body. Listen in to this comprehensive interview on autoimmune causes, symptoms and solutions and discover Dr. Lam’s recommendations. Jonathan Otto from Health Secret interviewed Dr. Sruti Lam about Autoimmune.

Navigating a diagnosis like lupus, multiple sclerosis, or rheumatoid arthritis often comes with a heavy set of terms: chronic condition, lifelong medication, a higher risk for additional disorders. It’s a landscape that can feel fixed and frightening. Health Secrets Podcast, hosted by Jonathan Otto, steps into this space with a different perspective. Instead of accepting a predetermined narrative, this series engages directly with medical professionals, researchers, and individuals who have explored the root causes and often overlooked connections behind autoimmune and other health challenges. Each conversation is built on the premise that understanding the underlying mechanisms-from gut health and environmental triggers to metabolic function-can open doors to more personalized management and genuine hope. You’ll hear detailed discussions that go beyond surface-level advice, delving into the science and real-world applications of integrative and functional medicine. This isn't about quick fixes; it's about building a deeper comprehension of how the body works and why it sometimes goes awry. Tune in for a podcast that treats your health curiosity with the seriousness it deserves, offering nuanced insights that empower you to have more informed conversations about your own well-being or that of someone you care about.
