When faced with a life-changing rheumatoid arthritis diagnosis, many people would follow the path of conventional medicine and hope for the best. But Indira Pulliadath had other plans. Armed with a background in pharmaceutical outcomes and policy, she took her health into her own hands and went all in on diet and lifestyle changes. And she didn’t stop there.
Now a certified nutritional therapist, Indira has helped countless others through her program, Rheumatoid Strong, designed for people with autoimmune conditions like rheumatoid arthritis. Her secret? The autoimmune protocol (AIP) that’s not just about eliminating foods—it’s about healing the gut, rebalancing the immune system, and unlocking long-term wellness.
In this episode, Indira takes us through her journey from debilitating rheumatoid arthritis to vibrant health, how she discovered the power of AIP, and her insights on inflammaging—chronic inflammation as we age. Whether you're dealing with an autoimmune disease or simply curious about how diet can radically shift your health, Indira has you covered.
"By reducing inflammation, my body normalized, regulated my hormones, and I started looking younger!" ~ Indira Pulliadath
