Ep 463: The neuro-immune mis-communication at the root of chronic illness - with Ashok Gupta

The Health Fix Podcast

Curious about why some people can handle stress and illnesses and recover quickly while others struggle? Have you been sick and feel like you never recovered from the illness? Perhaps your body feels ok but your brain function hasn’t fully been restored? Ashok Gupta suffered from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS-ME) 30 years ago while at Cambridge University. Through his own neurological research, he was able to recover 100%. Since 2007 he’s been teaching others on neuroplasticity and “limbic retraining” using his Gupta Program. In this episode of The Health Fix podcast Dr. Jannine Krause interviews Ashok Gupta on how the immune and nervous system interact to keep you chronically sick unless you retrain your brain's response to immune stress triggers.

What You'll Learn In This Episode:

• How your brain’s primal goal of survival causes chronic illness
• Why pain, mold, allergens, microbes are considered "not safe" to your nervous system
• The immune system feedback loops keeping you sick
• How a hyperdefensive brain causes you to get sick with lesser triggers each time
• Utilizing brain retraining to recover from chronic illness and ensure the body it’s safe
