Solving Sjogren’s: Summary

In this enlightening episode of ‘Solving Sjogren’s, host Evan Transue and guest Divya Dhawan, FDNP, shed light on the rarely discussed yet prevalent autoimmune condition, Sjogren’s Syndrome. Divya shares her personal journey of overcoming the debilitating symptoms of Sjogren’s through holistic and functional healing modalities, emphasizing the power of yoga in achieving remission.

The conversation also delves into the broader implications of autoimmune diseases, the role of gut health, and the critical discussion around food quality and environmental toxins, particularly glyphosate, in exacerbating autoimmunity. She also touches upon the importance of eating local, seasonal, and nourishing foods for overall health. 

Throughout the discussion, Divya elucidates on the symptoms and complexities of Sjogren’s syndrome, emphasizing the immune system’s role and its misfires. She touches on the link between Sjogren’s and other autoimmune disorders, stressing the importance of understanding the body’s signals and advocating for a holistic approach to health. The conversation further delves into the significance of lifestyle changes, including diet modifications and stress management, as pivotal elements in managing and possibly reversing autoimmune conditions.

The podcast concludes with Divya sharing insights on her transition into functional medicine and health coaching, driven by her experiences and desire to help others navigate autoimmune challenges. She highlights the effectiveness of the DRESS protocol (Diet, Rest, Exercise, Stress reduction, and Supplementation) by FDN in managing autoimmune symptoms and underscores the value of personalized health strategies in achieving wellness. Evan and Divya’s exchange provides a comprehensive overview of Sjogren’s syndrome, equipping listeners with knowledge and hope for managing autoimmune conditions.
