1.27 Childhood Trauma and Our Health


On this episode, Ameé speaks with Veronique Mead, a family physician and assistant professor who changed careers looking for a better understanding and more effective tools for working with chronic illness.


On her website www.chronicillnessstudies.com, she has collected and shared the abundance of new research showing how adverse life events increase risk for sensitivity to infections, toxins, and other environmental stressors that increase risk and trigger onset of chronic disease.

Through sharing Ameé 's own experience and rheumatoid arthritis diagnosis, this episode shares the latest research that shows risk factors for autoimmune and other chronic diseases, as well as how life events are part of that risk, and explains why it's not in your head.
