Summary
IN THIS EPISODE OF THE HUMAN UPGRADE™… you’ll learn how Functional Medicine expert Jill Carnahan, M.D., who is board certified in Family Medicine and Integrative Holistic Medicine, survived breast cancer, Crohn’s disease, and toxic mold. Her unique healing approach looks to science for answers while also using methods that outright challenge conventional medicine.
During the discussion, Dr. Carnahan distinguishes between visible (e.g., cancer) and invisible (e.g., mold toxicity) illnesses. “There's this new term called medical gaslighting where doctors actually say, "Oh, everything looks great," right? And you're not. You're not okay inside,” she says.
Her new book, “Unexpected: Finding Resilience through Functional Medicine, Science, and Faith,” explores “positive transformation against all odds.” She shares her own story of confronting life-altering illnesses, fighting for her health, and overcoming sickness using both science and faith. She also shares the experiences of her patients who transformed their health and their lives.
Get ready to learn about a new path of empowerment where you can take control of your own health and well-being.
