New York Times bestselling author Dr. Sara Gottfried reveals how trauma can rewire your body to trigger autoimmune diseases—and provides a comprehensive plan to reset your immune system and finally heal.

We know that autoimmune disease—a condition when the body’s immune system attacks its own healthy tissue and cells—affects about one in ten Americans, or 24 million people, with prevalence increasing worldwide. But as New York Times bestselling author Dr. Sara Gottfried explains in this eye-opening new book, autoimmune disease may be even more pervasive than we realize—and its root cause may surprise you.

Conventional medicine falls short when it comes to both diagnosing and treating autoimmune disease. Many people suffer from mysterious symptoms—like severe fatigue, brain fog, aches and pains, feelings of tingling and numbness, stubborn weight gain, abdominal pain, digestive problems, hair loss, insomnia, and even anxiety—and don’t realize their immune system is at the root of their symptoms. In her precision medicine practice, Dr. Gottfried noticed a seemingly unusual pattern: many of her patients who suffer from autoimmune disease and symptoms have a history of trauma. Emerging research shows that up to 80% of patients with autoimmune disease experienced significant emotional distress before getting sick.

With The Autoimmune Cure, there is hope on the horizon for the tens of millions of people who suffer from autoimmune disease. Dr. Gottfried has created a powerful program designed to break the vicious cycle of autoimmune disease, reset your immune system, and restore your health, with advice on:

  • diet
  • sleep
  • supplements
  • breathwork
  • microbiome restoration
  • somatic therapy
  • ketamine-assisted treatment
  • microdosing psilocybin
  • MDMA-assisted therapy

The Autoimmune Cure offers a roadmap to lasting relief from autoimmune disease by addressing the root cause of the condition and healing the body, mind, and spirit.

Review

 “This is a book of knowledge, guiding creation of a scientifically grounded plan for healing and prevention! There are powerful protective armies within us, but trauma can confuse them. Because trauma changes us on medical and psychological levels, it can trick our protective armies into turning against us. The results are painful and life-draining, but it does not have to be this way! In The Autoimmune Cure, Dr. Gottfried shares the personal and professional knowledge that changes lives.” 
— -Paul Conti, MD, author of Trauma: The Invisible Epidemic 

“The Autoimmune Cure provides answers and practical solutions to the often misunderstood complexities of autoimmune diseases. With this book, we finally have the key to deciphering the untold influence of past trauma on our immune system, making it a must-have resource for anyone seeking lasting relief.”  — -Sarah Ballantyne, PhD, New York Times bestselling author and founder of Nutrivore

“A groundbreaking book that will revolutionize your understanding of autoimmune diseases and enable you to find lasting relief from symptoms. Dr. Sara Szal Gottfried’s detailed research offers patients a lifeline in the form of an extraordinary program to reset, restore, and reclaim health. An absolute must-read for those who suffer from autoimmune disease or know someone who does." — -Dr. Jolene Brighten, bestselling author and founder of Dr. Brighten Essentials

An important book in our battle to reverse autoimmune disease

My path crossed with Dr Sara Gottfried, MD in 2019, first as her student completing the IPI fellowship and then as co-faculty when we taught different modules of the curriculum for the Integrative Psychiatry Institute’s fellowship in Integrative Psychiatry.That fortunate meeting positively and dynamically changed the trajectory of my health as a then, perimenopausal and now, post menopausal woman. As a trauma informed pediatrician deeply committed to screening for ACES (adverse childhood events) and creating plans that build resilience and PCES (positive childhood experiences), the insight and guidance that Dr Gottfried’s approach contributed to my own health was revolutionary.All of her books, and especially her latest gem, The Autoimmune Cure, address how healing the root causes of hormonal and metabolic shifts is crucial in breaking the vicious cycle of inflammation, to reset the PINE (psycho-neuro-immuno-endocrine) system and restore a state of sustained, balanced health.I truly grateful for Sara’s wisdom and for our professional and personal connection that has been nourished and informed by our similar life journeys.I loved her new book ‘The Autoimmune Cure: Healing the Trauma and Other Triggers That Have Turned Your Body Against You’ and highly recommend it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Autoimmune Disease: The Ultimate Guide for Self Healing

Dr.Sara Gottfried, thanks for taking a courageous step towards pausing and asking the provocative “Why” questions with respect to the etiology of autoimmune disease. I too have experienced ongoing assaults on my physiology secondary to toxic stress and trauma. Traditional doctors have discounted my thoughts regarding the link between stress and bodily breakdown. Despite numerous surgeries followed by years of traditional PT, the resolution of my pervasive pain has been a work in progress. Now I sense that the multidimensional trauma is stuck in my body. A profound peace has permeated throughout my emotional, mental and spiritual being knowing that there is a promising healing path awaiting me. I am deeply grateful for your wisdom, love and compassion for humanity.

Reviewed in the United States on March 15, 2024
A very thorough exploration of autoimmune disease. Sara Gottfried is well known for her previous work on hormones, and this did not disappoint. It should be noted that this book does promote Dr. Gottfried’s own autoimmune “plan.” Hopefully that won’t result in anyone discounting the wealth of information presented within. I learned quite a bit, and have already recommended it to several people.

There is so much to learn about how our bodies actually work to heal us and how we can empower ourselves to resolve many issues.

If you can’t seem to get answers, have “normal” labs, and feel your body functions to be off, grab this book and start learning for yourself.

The Autoimmune Cure is a must-read for anyone who has battled trauma and/or autoimmune disease, which the book proves often go hand-in-hand. Dr. Sara Gottfried’s new book helped me better understand my own undiagnosed autoimmune problems that I have battled over my lifetime— and what to do about them! I can’t wait to put the ideas I’ve learned here to use. I also appreciate that this research and wisdom emanated from what she learned from her own struggles. I too can relate to, for years, ignoring my body, the anxiety I lived with in a difficult marriage, racing at work, the physical pain I felt but didn’t acknowledge, which I can now see took a toll on my health. I had to confront, as she calls it, the “disassociation between body and mind.” The book offers a plan for healing and how to get “unstuck.” Useful. A great read. Well done!

5.0 out of 5 stars Insightful with practical advice

Dr. Sara's latest book was a captivating read that I couldn't put down. As a longtime fan, I had high expectations, and I'm pleased to say that they were met and exceeded. Her insights have already taught me so much.

For years, I've struggled with severe autoimmune conditions like Vitiligo and Hashimoto's. What struck me most was Dr. Sara's exploration of the connection between these conditions and stress stored in the body. It's something I hadn't considered before, but it makes so much sense.

While I'm still absorbing all the information (I've only just finished reading it!), I feel hopeful about implementing Dr. Sara's protocols. I've wasted no time in starting her recommended interventions and have reached out to my doctor about tests she suggests – tests my doctor had never mentioned despite my ongoing health issues.

I found the chapter on psychedelics particularly interesting. While I'm not sure if it's something I'll pursue, it was enlightening to read about the real experiences behind the sensationalized news stories.

Overall, I highly recommend this book, especially for those like me who have struggled to find effective ways to manage their health and navigate the medical system. Thanks to Dr. Sara, I finally feel equipped to work with my body rather than against it.
