The Wonders of Women

The Wonder of Women podcast was created for two reasons. First, to highlight, explore, and gain knowledge from the wisdom of wonderful women. Second, to discuss many topics that women are curious about and what we "wonder." I hope to bring inspiration, education, and motivation to the forefront with these topics being discussed, interviews held, and with knowledge being shared.Topics covered will be very broad including educational, history, human rights, motherhood, birth stories, social topics, medical, health, and with the six dimensions of wellness (emotional, occupational, physical, social, intellectual, and spiritual wellness).To submit a topic to be discussed please send over to me or the wondersofwomenpodcast@gmail.com

Episode 14: Autoimmune Diseases & More with Dr. E

February 16, 2023 • Victoria Belliston

Thank you for tuning in! I'm thankful to have guest Dr. Efrat LaMandre on my podcast to briefly discuss autoimmune diseases and how the root cause of how symptoms we experience and physical ailments aren't all in our head. There are life style changes that can be made (paired with modern medicine) that can truly help you feel better. This is what she has dedicated her life to, she helps so many people at her practice in State Island and online. She has The Knew Method podcast, her website theknewmethod.com, and social pages @theknewmethod.
Her book "It's NOT in Your Head: Your Body Doesn't Feel Right But You Don't Know Why," is available on Amazon and kindle as well.

We discussed in this episode a few autoimmune diseases such as Hashimoto's (hypothyroidism), PCOS, etc. and how they have direct correlations to how we live our lives and what we are eating. I really enjoyed the discussion we had and this is great knowledge for anyone to know; even if you are in yours 20s and 30s to put in perspective health and life style choices. She's got so much knowledge as a Nurse Practitioner and with her PhD in Integrative Medicine, we could have covered so much more but this was a pleasure to have her on sharing her expertise and putting Integrative Medicine on our radar! If a consultation is desired you can check out her website to see if this could be beneficial for you.
Thanks again for joining me! Please reach out if you have any questions or topic suggestions!

With love, Victoria
