Toxic Food & Hidden Chemicals Are Everywhere: Here's What You Can Do

Our immune system operates like a finely tuned symphony, yet many
of us find ourselves out of harmony, vulnerable to persistent
infections, autoimmune conditions, and chronic disease. Rather than
merely suppressing symptoms, a Functional Medicine approach seeks
to identify and address the underlying disruptions driving immune
imbalance. Central to this dysfunction is compromised gut health,
which undermines immune regulation, while mitochondrial impairment
and chronic inflammation further erode the body's capacity for
resilience and repair. By restoring balance at the root level, we
can cultivate a more robust and adaptive immune system. In this
episode, I discuss, along with Dr. Elroy Vojdani and Dr. Leonard
Calabrese, how cleaning up our diets, improving gut health,
removing toxins, and decreasing stress can do wonders for our
immune systems. Dr. Elroy Vojdani is a pioneer in the field of
functional medicine and research and is the founder of Regenera
Medical, a concierge functional medicine practice in Los Angeles,
California. He graduated from USC Keck School of Medicine, is a
certified Institute for Functional Medicine Practitioner. Dr.
Vojdani has conducted medical scientific research for decades with
more than 25 publications in multiple peer-reviewed journals. He is
also world-renowned for his research and development of
state-of-the-art lab testing in the field of immunology. He
recently authored a book entitled “When Food Bites Back” which
discusses the role of food immune reactions in the development of
autoimmune disease.  Dr. Leonard Calabrese, is an expert in
immunology and rheumatology. In fact, he is a Professor of Medicine
at the Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine of Case Western
Reserve University and Vice Chair of the Department of Rheumatic
and Immunologic Diseases. Dr. Calabrese is the director of the RJ
Fasenmyer Center for Clinical Immunology at the Cleveland Clinic
and holds joint appointments in the Department of Infectious
Diseases and the Wellness Institute. Dr. Calabrese has made
significant contributions to science in the fields of chronic viral
infections and autoimmunity and vascular inflammatory diseases of
the brain. He has received numerous awards and honors for his
contributions to the advancements of immunology and wellness. This
