13. Here's a Warrior: LGI1 Autoimmune Encephalitis ft. Lisa Lauter
Today's episode is with Lisa Lauter, a nurse and public health advocate, raising awareness for encephalitis and promoting holistic and conventional medicine approaches to recovery. When she received a devastating diagnosis of autoimmune encephalitis (AE), Lisa deliberately began implementing changes to her diet and mindset and started utilizing holistic health practices, intensive rehabilitation therapy, and conventional medicine approaches to achieve recovery. By making changes one step at a time over a five-year journey to health, she achieved a remarkable recovery.
In this episode, we talk about Lisa's diagnosis journey and specifically focus on the devastating seizures she experienced. She then shares the lifestyle changes she implemented to recover from her encephalitis and talks about the book she is writing to help all seeking to improve their mental and physical well-being. We also discuss the difference between holistic health and Western medicine, and she offers her unique perspective on the two as a nurse and public health advocate. Lisa's strength to recover and create a healthy lifestyle for herself is awe-inspiring, and she continues sharing her health tips through her blog and work with various organizations.
