Being a triple board-certified Rheumatologist combining integrative and functional medicine, we have long awaited this conversation with Dr. Micah Yu. Not only does he bring a wide view of rheumatology to the table, but he is also a patient himself. For years he suffered in silence, his diagnosis bringing no treatment options despite going to medical school, completing a residency, and seeking out numerous rheumatologists. It wasn't until he made the decision to utilize a tool he had overlooked in the past – food and plant based eating - that he started seeing improvements in his condition. From then on, Dr. Yu knew he could reinvent the wheel by bringing a whole-body approach to rheumatology.
Dr. Yu shares his journey as a patient and physician, explains how nutrition relates to autoimmune disease and the underlying root causes of autoimmunity, and talks about what happens to patients when they cannot find the right treatment for them.
