The Arthritis Lie: Why "Wear and Tear" Isn't Wearing Out Your Joints | EP 412a

Do your joints ache every time you get out of bed?

Here's what those cheerful drug commercials won't tell you: the medications treating your rheumatoid, psoriatic, and osteoarthritis are actually transplant drugs designed to suppress your immune system — and they're managing a symptom while ignoring the real cause.

In this episode, I explain why arthritis is not a normal part of aging, why your "wear and tear" joints have the same root cause as heart disease, and how 94% of my autoimmune patients get off their medications and become symptom-free within a year.

On this episode, you'll learn:
