Inspired Living with Autoimmunity

ER doctor turned cellular medicine expert Dr. Siobhan Newman explains why your mitochondria need recovery before you add exercise, how the low-fat era damaged our cells, and what the "three nos" are that she starts every patient with. We also get into why aggressively lowering cholesterol can backfire, what peptides actually do (and why buying them online is risky), and why your gut is ground zero for immune dysregulation.

Show Notes

ER doctor turned cellular medicine expert Dr. Siobhan Newman spent years saving people in a busy LA emergency room — and watching none of them actually get better. Now she helps people rebuild health at the cellular level, and her approach challenges a lot of what we've been told. We get into why adding exercise when your mitochondria are already underwater just drives more inflammation, how the low-fat era damaged our cells in ways we're still paying for, and her "three nos" — the simple starting point she gives every patient. We also talk about why very low cholesterol is linked to worse outcomes, what peptides actually do (and why buying them online is genuinely dangerous), and why your gut is where immune dysregulation really starts. If you have an autoimmune condition and you've been pushing through fatigue or following advice that isn't landing, this conversation will make a lot of things click.
