Dr. Stillman's Autoimmunity Recovery Framework

A framework for overcoming autoimmunity

I recall reading a book called, "The Autoimmune Epidemic," during my residency in internal medicine (several years ago). The epidemic is getting worse, sadly, despite the fact that the root causes are clear. The market capitalization for immunomodulating drugs is expected to quintuple from about $250 billion (now) to over $1.3 trillion in a decade or so.

For reference, the pharmaceutical industry today is a $1.3 trillion industry. For one drug class to grow to this number reflects a staggering rise in the incidence and severity of these diseases.

I am launching a monthly masterclass, Dr. Stillman’s Autoimmunity Masterclass, for anyone interested in learning more about how we tackle autoimmune conditions in my practice. You can register for the masterclass here.

Why are so many people today struggling with autoimmunity? Listen to Amy's story of overcoming multiple sclerosis. She beat terrible odds, but it took her a year and she had to make tremendous sacrifices.

Stories of Hope & Healing: Amy Arp Part II

Amy's toughness and determination are part of why we teamed up to create our Autoimmune Recovery Program, which we’ll be explaining in the autoimmunity masterclass. She knows what it takes to recover and can relate to people who are in the process of overcoming autoimmunity.

Despite the reality of stories like Amy's, the conventional narrative is that autoimmune conditions are incurable, and that the best that patients can hope for is remission through drugs. At worst, they face life-long debility and early death, despite drugs, surgeries, and all the rest that modern medicine has to offer.

What modern medicine is missing is the root causes of autoimmunity. Here are the root causes of autoimmunity that we must talk about if we are ever to curb the autoimmune epidemic.

1. Toxic chemicals, like heavy metals, petroleum products, mold (myco-) toxins, and more. These are found in our air, water, food, personal care products, furniture, clothing and accessories, and everything in between.

2. Fake light from computers, phones, tablets, televisions, and more, especially at night, when we are supposed to be in darkness.

3. Electromagnetic pollution that disrupts cellular energy generation and destroys melatonin, our master hormone of rest and regeneration.

4. Lack of whole, natural food with the nutrients that are vital to good health.

5. Lack of natural light, specifically the frequencies that are required for energy generation and cellular regeneration.

6. Lack of natural, healing electromagnetic frequencies.

7. Lack of movement and exercise that are necessary for good health and vitality.

8. Emotional trauma and negative thinking.

This provides a clear framework for recovering from, and also preventing, autoimmunity.

1. We have to minimize exposure to toxic chemicals of all kinds. You need to mobilize and eliminate toxins using things like sauna, which is why I wrote this guide to sauna therapy. This is why I created Dr. Stillman’s Detox Powder.

2. We have to create a natural lighting environment, with as little artificial light as possible. This is why I wrote an article about fixing your light environment.

3. We have to minimize exposure to electromagnetic pollution to maximize our body's energy generation and cellular healing.

4. We have to restore whole, natural foods to your diet, and be sure to eliminate any foods that are triggering autoimmunity due to loss of immune tolerance.

5. We have to restore natural, healing frequencies of light, from infrared to ultraviolet, to restore immune tolerance. This is why I wrote a guide to red and infrared light therapy. This is why I wrote a guide to getting enough UV light.

6. We have to restore natural, healing electromagnetic frequencies to maximize cellular energy generation and healing.

7. We have to restore natural movement, particularly proper breathing mechanics, to optimize immune function and health in general.

8. We have to address traumatic experiences in the past and create a positive mindset for healing.

While this seems simple, there is tremendous complexity to it. We spend hours and hours on each case at my practice helping people to implement what seem like simple principles.

I often find myself saying, "the devil is in the details." This is why so many people come to us already having, "tried everything," and yet they are still struggling with severe, debilitating symptoms.

Many of you reading this and looking for answers to your autoimmune problems are thinking, "but I already do all of these things."

For you, there is so much more we have to offer at my practice. Here are the mainstays of our approach.

• We use light therapy, specifically the X39 patch from LifeWave, in every autoimmune case in the practice. Try the X39 today.

• We use nutritional balancing to restore the body's ability to generate energy, which enables the body to eliminate toxins and recover from the damage they have caused.

• We use advanced protocols that I share on this Substack with premium subscribers, like the vitamin C protocol, melatonin protocol, MSM protocol, and iodine protocol. These are not to be used lightly - this is why they're for premium subscribers only and I strongly recommend practitioner oversight when using them.

• We optimize hormone levels using natural hormones, not the fake hormones found in things like birth control or Big Pharma menopause medicines. This includes thyroid hormone, DHEA, progesterone, estrogen, and testosterone.

• We tailor detoxification protocols to patients, based on their labs.

• We recommend more advanced therapies when necessary, like hyperbaric oxygen, PEMF therapy, and more.

With this approach, we see amazing results every day. The average patient in my practice reports a 70% in how they feel and function during their time with us. An overwhelming majority - 95% - would refer us their friends and family and say that the investment they've made with us has been worth it.

Our Autoimmune Recovery Program includes one-on-one care, supplements, and access to my team and for those of you who are determined to get your autoimmune under control and into full remission, without the use of dangerous, expensive, and in many cases untested and unproven drugs.

We are here to help you get to the root causes of your autoimmune (or possibly autoimmune) challenges. I host a masterclass every month on how we help people recover from autoimmune conditions. You can register here.

I trust I'll see you there.

Until then, be well,

Dr. Stillman
