Healing Lupus and Autoimmune Disease Through Nutrition with Dr. Brooke Goldner
Today, I’m bringing you a truly special conversation that every woman facing chronic illness, autoimmune struggles, or daily inflammation needs to hear.
I’m joined by Dr. Brooke Goldner — bestselling author of Goodbye Lupus, Goodbye Autoimmune Disease, and a physician who has helped thousands of people reverse autoimmune conditions using a results-based, plant-powered protocol rooted in cellular repair and nutrition.
And what makes her story even more powerful?
She was a lupus patient facing kidney failure, chemotherapy, and being told she had six months to live.
In this episode, we talk about:
- The unexpected way nutrition helped Dr. Goldner reverse her autoimmune disease
- Why protein panic is overhyped
- What most doctors (and even influencers) get wrong about “anti-inflammatory diets”
- The emotional work behind healing: resilience, joy, trauma recovery, and choosing life at level 10
- And how a simple smoothie protocol has changed lives — without perfection or pricey supplements
We also dive into her rapid recovery program, her free community education work, and how healing is about more than just what you eat.
