163 - Natural Solutions for IBD & Autoimmunity | Dr. Anju Mathur

Leigh Brandon Episode 163

In this episode of the Radical Health Rebel Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Anju Mathur—a former conventional GP who made a bold shift into the world of integrative and functional medicine after witnessing firsthand the limitations of pharmaceutical-only approaches.

We explore the complexities of autoimmune disease, the real differences between IBD and IBS, and why a colonoscopy might not give you the full picture. Dr. Mathur shares powerful insights into how nutrition and food sensitivities impact not only digestive health but also mental well-being.

We also dive into innovative approaches for supporting autoimmune clients, including IV therapies, peptide therapies, and alternatives to biologic drugs. If you're dealing with chronic inflammation, gut issues, or an autoimmune condition—or you support clients who are—this episode is packed with valuable perspectives and practical advice.
