#145 - Your Body Can Heal: Understanding Autoimmunity and the Road Back to Health with VJ Hamilton
This week on Menomorphosis, I’m joined by the brilliant VJ Hamilton — Nutritionist, Functional Medicine Practitioner, and founder of The Autoimmunity Nutritionist.
VJ specialises in helping women uncover the root causes behind autoimmune conditions and chronic inflammation. After her own journey with multiple autoimmune diagnoses (she's been symptom free now for 9 years), she now supports others to restore energy and reduce symptoms through nutrition and lifestyle medicine.
In this conversation, we explore the often-overlooked link between autoimmunity, stress, and the nervous system . VJ shares practical, empowering ways to support your body naturally, understand what your immune system is really trying to tell you, and move from burnout to balance.
What you’ll learn:
- The early signs of autoimmunity
- How chronic stress and an overactive nervous system can fuel inflammation
- Why rest and nourishment are just as crucial as diet when healing the body
- The role of gut health, joy and self-compassion in calming autoimmunity
- How to eat and live in a way that supports long-term energy and vitality
If you’ve ever felt like your body is working against you — or you’re ready to understand the deeper connection between your immune system, hormones, and nervous system — this episode will help you see that healing is absolutely possible.
