In this episode, Haylie Pomroy sits down with Dr. Marc Kesselman, a rheumatologist who’s helped thousands navigate conditions like lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, and long COVID.
Together, they discuss why these diseases are becoming more common, the surprising ways viruses and toxins can trigger them, and what “pre-autoimmunity” testing can reveal years before symptoms even start.
Haylie also opens up about her own autoimmune journey, and why they both believe nutrition, stress management, and finding a doctor who truly listens can change the course of your health.
If you’ve ever feared a flare, struggled to get answers, or just want to protect your immune system, this conversation will give you science, strategies, and hope you can use right now.
