Erin's goal with this series is to thoroughly explain every aspect of autoimmunity. This series will provide you with information to help you understand autoimmunity and act as a resource you can share with people in your life who can use it.

0:00.0	Welcome to the Functional Nutrition Podcast. I'm your host, Aaron Holt. I'm a functional
0:07.4	medicine nutritionist with a feisty attitude in over a decade of clinical experience. I work with
0:13.3	women all over the world through my online programs, and I'm also the founder of the Functional
0:18.8	Nutrition Academy, a 12-month practitioner mentorship
0:22.2	where I help other nutrition pros level up with functional medicine methodologies.
0:27.8	I've got a bone to pick with diet culture and a conventional health care model that are both
