How I REVERSED my ARTHRITIS NATURALLY as a Rheumatologist | Dr. Micah Yu



Fighting Arthritis and Autoimmune Disease is tough for any person. Everyone’s journey is different and everyone’s diet that helped them is different.

This is MY journey on how I healed my own body. I want you to know that you are not alone on your journey in fighting chronic illnesses and there is LIGHT at the end of the tunnel.

  1. Tell me about YOUR journey with your chronic illness. We are all on a unique journey with our health and will take different paths. But what we all have in common is that we just want to feel better and get back to the way we once were before we had our illness.

  2. i understand..i am 25 now and i had chrons since 17..having a chronic illness young is hell..my friends can't understand what is wrong with me..it is tiring to explain,so i just learned to be by myself..i am getting used to that life now,so it is okay..
    i am here bcz my mom has RA..it is hard to see her suffering in pain..medications is not helping at all..so i am trying to find some natural treatments to ease her pain..hope this will be helpful to her

  3. I was diagnosed with gout in my early 30s. My doc said, "How do you have this? This is a 90 yr old man's disease!". My first attack lasted a month and I couldn't walk for the first three days, and had a limp for the next 30. The second attack, I looked up cures in a great book on nutrition, and the doc there said to consume black cherry juice or strawberries. I got a pack of strawberries and sat and watched tv while eating them and drinking filtered water. Five hours later all symptoms were gone. I do still have other arthritis that does flare up depending on what I eat. As whole food plant based organic as I can do, the better.

  4. Wow, you and I have traveled many of the same streets of life.

    I did take Methotrexate and it nearly killed me, literally. I was given 3-6 months to live. That was in 2011.

    Still alive, I have suffered from multiple damages and remnants of that mistake.

    Fortunately or unfortunately, I'm still alive being passed around form dozens of doctors to more doctors.

    Suffering is a blessing as it makes us strong characters in God and the holy spirit who guides us through the suffering if we lean on Jesus Christ.

    Best to you.

    Jim

  5. I had graves disease since 20 years ago that gives me hyperthyroidism. Now rheumatoid arthritis suddenly start not knowing that what I felt occasionally was a flare. It started on my pelvis and now gone but this time my wrist and fingers feels the flare every time I had eaten or drank something that has sugar. So now no more sugar on my diet, no more instant drinks. My blood sugar was normal on test, it was strange that I got the flares every time there's sugar on my diet

  6. I love hearing your testimony. Thank you for mentioning God. He made the right foods for our bodies, and that is the best medicines for our bodies. I have scleroderma. Where I live it has been so hard to find a good rheumatologist. I am not sure I have one. He wants to just write me a prescription, and isn't open to listening to me because I don't want it. I've been on this journey alone. So glad I found your channel. I've had improvement going gluten free and eating a good, non-processed foods die. Over the last year, I've had gut issues. I can't seem to get myself straightened back up, but I'm working on it, and going to try a three day fast. I just want to feel better and be pain free. Again, thank you for sharing your story. I will subscribe and continue to listen to you.

  7. I was diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus on February 3rd 2010.its been a struggle.i refused methotrexate. But i take plaquinel the side effects or unbearable at times.i had a great rheumatologist. But i had to move to another state and im going on 13 years without a rheumatologist . I tried a few times to look for a rheumatologist .i gave up after the last rheumatologist had me wait in waiting room for 2 hours and when i finally met the dr she looked me up and down and said so what do you want me to do for you,you look fine 😢😢😢.after that i gave up on looking any further

  8. it doesnt make sense AT ALL for auto immune heavy condiiton to eat vegetarian with lots of Grains and legumes (, gluten and lectines )

    thats crazy..

    vegetarian, i mean here ,you mean VEGAN ( all plant based )

    is a CULT its not a healthy way of eating way for life its not NATURAL its not IN the memory of our cells

    the Vegans are now dying in their ignorance its a CULT ( that was born in USA in the NEW AGE movement )

    vegan diet with raw vegetablesn is right as a short cure for DETOX( this must BE WITHOUT GRAINS & LEGUMES) , its not a all life , way of eating

    grains and nuts have toxic lectins not made for human food

    the indians are vegetarians only in some areas, most of Indians eat meat curries, tandoories, korma , etc.; with meat

    All he Asians eat meat, fish and sea food !!

    make me flare, grains and legumes are not natural foods for Humans, for us and for children

    (as well as animals milks )

    i agreed first partially with Dr Campbel ( but she makes people eat eggs and nuts in BIG quantity thats not good at all thars nonsense ))

    l agree with AIP diet
    i hope one day

    i could eat again some organic legumes well cooked like peas , and some nuts, roasted

    grains? no , never more they are so toxic to the intestine and brain

    i eat ORGANIC meat and Wild FISH, i eart bones, brothn i eat organs meats WHEN I CAN HAVE ABSOLUTELY ORGANIC WITHOUT VAXXINES ) and pllenty of fresh organice VEGETABLES, raw and cooked

    which is the normal food for Humanity,

  9. Shocked my doctor brining my CRP to < 3 using natural methods. Healing rheumatoid arthritis naturally 💪🏼 follow me I have so much info @cristihealingmama especially for women and especially postpartum 🙏🏼✨❤️‍🩹 we can ALL heal 🙌🏼
