Summary

“Conventional medicine failed me. It is my mission to not have it fail other people as well,” says Amy Myers, MD. The New York Times–bestselling author of The Autoimmune Solution and The Thyroid Connection sat down with Elise Loehnen to talk about autoimmunity. Seventy-five percent of people with autoimmunity are women, explains Myers, and she believes that autoimmunity is spiking in children. She suggests manageable ways to look at and adjust diets to meet your personal health needs and food sensitivities. And she shares her own health journey—including a mold scare—and many tools for cleaning up home environments and removing potentially toxic or harmful factors (like mold) that could impact your health. Myers empowers us to take back our health and encourages us to be aggressive advocates for our own healing: “Do not give up.” (For more, see The goop Podcast hub.)

0:00.0	Hi, I'm Elise Loonon, co-host with Guinness of the Goop podcast.
0:08.1	Today's guest is Dr. Amy Myers.
0:11.0	I sat down with her at the Goop office before COVID, and we had a fascinating talk about
0:15.6	gut health and autoimmunity.

0:22.3	who helped make today's episode possible.

0:50.9	One kitchen upgrade from Kohler is a touchless kitchen faucet.
0:54.2	It's completely hands-free, so it makes cooking and cleaning up feel a lot faster, and if
0:58.5	you're washing your hands, you never have to touch the faucet in the process.
1:02.5	That feeling of peace of mind extends from the kitchen to the bathroom with bidet seats,

1:14.0	To explore their whole collection of clean kitchen and bath products, head to Kohler.com-clin.
1:25.6	Don't hold anything too tightly.
1:27.8	Just wish for it, want it, let it come from the intention of real truth for you, and then let it go.
1:36.6	For me, our soul is like it's unbound, it's limitless, but we will use words to limit ourselves.
1:43.9	When people stop believing that somebody's got your back or Superman's coming, we turn to ourselves,
