In this episode of the Healthy & Awake Podcast, Mike Vera talks with immunotoxicologist Dori Smith, who reversed seven autoimmune diseases after being disabled for over a decade. They dive into the root causes of chronic inflammation, the science behind detoxification, and how functional medicine can help the body heal naturally. Dori shares how understanding genetics, nutrition, toxins, and faith transformed her life—and why conventional medicine still overlooks these key insights. If you’ve ever wondered whether true recovery from chronic illness is possible, this conversation will change your perspective.
