Show Notes

We have Dr. Jyothi Rao, MD back on the show - author of Body on Fire! Health and balance in our bodies begins with the immune system. 

And today, we talk everything about Stress and the Immune System!

It's true that stress can come from many places, and the problem is...when stress doesn't go away.  It can be from pressure from work or home, the food that goes into our mouths, lack of sleep or overstimulation, the stress of always being connected and notified socially.  And this stress has direct impact on our immune system.  What happens when our immune system becomes dysregulated?

What are signs of an overactive immune system?

Join us!  Dr. Rao is a badass, seriously one of my doctor girl crushes.  A wonderful and true advocate for our health, she is also a fantastic educator.   An Internal Medicine doctor by training and experience, she is a strong proponent of holistic medicine, and focuses her medical practice on wellness and prevention.  You can find her at raowellness.com.
