In this episode…

Are you struggling with various chronic illness symptoms? Have you visited multiple doctors and taken countless tests only to be told your results are normal? Unfortunately, these experiences have become a reality for many people, and they can interfere with managing your business. Find out how you can get relief and regain control of your life.

After juggling multiple illnesses with no relief or answers, Dr. Maggie Yu discovered the power of personalized holistic care. She maintains that digestive issues and food intolerances are the root causes of many chronic symptoms. Yet these sensitivities differ from immunoglobulin allergic reactions, causing immediate and critical symptoms in that the effects are delayed and seemingly inconsistent. Rather than experimenting with elimination diets, Dr. Maggie recommends tracking your food sensitivities by obtaining accurate testing data facilitated by education and mentorship.

Join Dan Kuschell in today’s segment of Growth to Freedom as he welcomes Dr. Maggie Yu, MD, IFMCP, who talks about overcoming chronic illness through targeting food sensitivities. Dr. Maggie explains how histamines contribute to chronic pain, how she reduced a client’s symptoms by improving her digestion, and the misinformation about traditional chronic illness treatments.

Episode Transcript

Dan Kuschell  0:00  

and welcome to today’s interview in segment, let me ask you this. Have you ever wondered why some people struggle with chronic health issues, chronic disease, hormone imbalances, or maybe having immune challenge, those are maybe medical issues that are like somewhat unexplainable. Well, if so, then you are going to love today’s segment. And what we’re talking about. In fact, our guest expert today is a good friend and a client of ours and someone I just admire adore. She’s the best selling author of this book, eight out of the box ways to transform your health. She has. She’s a mom, she’s a teacher, she’s a speaker, she is a thought leader and dedicated functional medicine physician that had battled her own journey in her own journey with medical issues. And when she couldn’t find the answers through traditional medicine, guess what she did lean in, come here. Come on. She found a new way. And we’re going to talk about that new way today. Because what if there was actually a way outside of maybe what most would call the traditional medic medical system of what I’ll refer to as sick care, that you could truly experience something called health care? What would that be worth to you? And what if a lot of the traditional practices around health and fitness and, and and disease was just not as true as maybe you’ve been led to believe? Well, if any of that’s of interest to you, you are going to love today’s segment. And I don’t know about you. But this hits home with family members who recently passed with cancer, some mental issues, chronic fatigue syndrome, several other things going on. I believe this is one of the hottest, most relevant topics, it doesn’t matter. Your background doesn’t matter whether you’re a corporate executive, a mom, a son, parent, or you’re a CEO and founder entrepreneur, that’s a high achiever playing the biggest game in the world. This is relevant to you. So welcome our guests. Dr. Maggie, Yu, Dr. Maggie, how are you?

Dr. Maggie Yu  2:06  

I am fantastic. Thank you for having me. And for that introduction. You’re

Dan Kuschell  2:10  

welcome. I want to dive right into it. We’re going to talk about uncovering the truth related to food reactions and the role play. Now this is kind of an interesting, controversial topic. But before we dive into some of the strategy, like I know you’ve had quite a journey, so why are you so fascinated about this topic and doing what you’re doing? Well,

Dr. Maggie Yu  2:30 

I would say I’m a full, I was a full time participant in sick care. I was trained in one of the top medical schools in the country, UCLA, I was a great family physician, I worked for one of the top medical groups, both in California and then later in Oregon. And I became a medical director and I trained other physicians. So you could say that I was definitely in line with delivering what I discovered to be more and more of a sick care model. And I was really used to also we fall algorithms for everything, right. So if you have this, we do these two blood tests, if it’s this, and you go this route, if his daddy go that route, and if you’re neither, you’re shit out of luck, excuse my French. And what I found was that the category with which it was harder and harder to fit people into these algorithms, because people were coming up with more and more sick Ness, and more and more disease. And I became like, I practiced in that and it was really clean and neat black and white in so many ways, until I became that patient. You know, so I ended up I mean, I when I look back, it’s probably started my childhood, but it came on the worst after the birth of my first child, I developed severe breast infection took antibiotics, develop chronic fatigue, hair loss, fibromyalgia, depression, postpartum depression. And unbeknownst to me, I didn’t even realize I was developing an autoimmune disease, which was an autoimmune thyroid disorder. And years later, after my second child I developed and I developed diabetes while I was pregnant with her. Later on, I was diagnosed with Multiple autoimmune diseases, not just Hashimotos, but mixed connective tissue disorder, nebulous diagnosis, like fibromyalgia, irritable bowel syndrome, you name it. And I realized that what I was telling me essentially back then was, all your labs are normal, everything is fine. There’s nothing more that I could do to help you except maybe some birth control bills, site pills. Maybe you’re cray cray, you know, go away, you know, send you off to another specialist. So realizing that I was delivering the sick care was devastating when I became that patient, and I became sicker and sicker. So I realized I had to go outside of that model to find my own merit answers to cure myself. So that’s how this all started. long ass journey to bring you back here where I had to figure out my own way through this. And once you see it, you can’t unsee it. And that’s why I’m here today.

Dan Kuschell  4:50 

And I love like your story, and you’ve helped so many 1000s and 1000s of people all over the world with what you do. Um, talk about somebody, you know, because as I think about our own my own family, and I’ll be a little selfish here as you’re watching or listening, but think about this, do you have someone in your family that has some immune issues or maybe struggles a little bit with mental health in general, or fatigue, or over fatigue, chronic fatigue or any of these sorts of things? I mean, I think it really hits home. And I don’t think there’s anybody that isn’t impacted one way or another from this, either short term or long term. And there’s so much misinformation. Dr. Maggie, speak about that, like what do you see as some of the big misunderstandings or mistakes that most people have in taking their approach to try to solve these types of issues?

Dr. Maggie Yu  5:43  

Well, to focus and narrow it around food, and I’m going to use it as an example is that you know, so many of you guys watching right now is that food reactions, you’re having food reactions, and you know they’re responsible for sometimes your symptoms are all the time your symptoms getting worse. And it’s not sometimes just like constipation, diarrhea, gas, bloating, that we think of food and GI or gut issues. But you some of you also know that when you eat food that you can get brain fog with it, you can get fatigued with it and get anxiety around it. Some of you know that the food that you eat or don’t eat can impact on your insomnia. You know, whether you sleep or not how you wake up, somebody, the food just sits there, some of your crowd have chronic pain, neuropathy, autoimmune diseases, you just know food has something to do with it. But the question is what and I will say the biggest misinformation, the biggest lie that we have in the healthcare system, the day that we train young doctors and practicing experienced doctors, your endocrinologist, your rheumatologist, the biggest lie is that food doesn’t matter. Because we already know it does based on the data from our body. And when the heck are we going to listen to our own body? I say now. So that’s the biggest piece of information is we’re missing out what we inherently know from our symptoms. And I can tell you also is that when you’re looking at food, if it’s real, that these food indeed is causing the reaction, the question is then becomes how. And that’s the missing piece. Second piece of this holy grail. A lot of people think that, Oh, if it’s food, it must be unlearned allergies to food. It could be, which, by the way, your allergies will dismiss, because it’s not the kind of allergies they can diagnose. So yes, it could be allergic, but it’s not the kind your allergies can diagnose. It’s what we call more food intolerances and sensitivities. And they cause these very real symptoms. Okay, so yes, it can be food allergies. But what I love teaching people about when which is the holy grail, in fact, one of the first chapters of my book is digestion is always the first domino, which is that at least 50% of everybody who’s watching today, at least 50% of those symptoms, is because some step in their digestion is broken. Digestion. So is it possible think about this for a second, my reaction to food is not allergies, related? It’s related to some step in my digestion, that’s, in fact broken or challenge. Could that be it? And the answer is, yes, it is. In fact, you can’t miss the buck on it is at least 50% of what’s causing your problems. So what you’re finding is, is that we’re not training doctors, right? When they tell you food doesn’t matter. And then even when you think it matters, they’re running, very limited testing, that doesn’t really diagnose a real problem, even if it is allergic related. And they know nothing about digestion, which is responsible for at least 50% of your symptoms. So that’s where we’re at.

Dan Kuschell  8:40 

That’s, and that’s amazing. And as you’re watching or listening, like what would happen if you could tilt this domino in your favor, get control of your health, get clarity, get confidence, and eliminate a lot of these symptoms that, unbeknownst to most, could be as simple as temping that domino related to digestion. You know, for example, Dr. Maggie, one of I think I heard in one of your videos, I mean, you’ve got so much content available, I think it was one of the YouTube videos you have where you talk about the traditional medical system, kind of feeding on this another challenge or misunderstanding is related. And, you know, you go to medical school, and I’m Team 1000s of hours of study and, you know, internships, etc. And you get like three hours, or maybe it was six, three to six hours, if I’m remembering of nutrition and digestion, like, and that’s overfill. 50% of the symptoms, or root causes can be linked to this one thing you’re talking about not not let alone all the other things that you bring awareness to so, you know, speak to this, you know, maybe a story that others could relate to someone you’ve worked with. I know you’ve got 1000s of case studies, but maybe someone that comes to mind that’s got everyday kind of normal challenges, that you know where they were, and maybe what happened is result of just making the tilt of the domino in their own favor.

Dr. Maggie Yu  10:03  

Well, this is really a this is very interesting. And it always gives me a quote like myself have a quote from Maya Angelou, which is when you know better you do better. And so one of my biggest jobs is to teach people to know better, right. And last night, I just, I just did a live training where I did a live workshop with people and one of the biggest topics was around how digestion can contribute to so many different types of symptoms. And my favorite case study out of that was Elaine. Elaine had suffered for, I would say, at least 1020 years with constipation. And then on top of over the last five to six years, what she found was that she had trouble eating all meat, all meat. And when she ate the meat, it would just sit there, and it caused discomfort and bloating. And she thought she was allergic to meat. Come along with that over the last five, six years, she developed severe symptoms of brain fog, anxiety, pain, right? And had autoimmune diseases that was out of control, right, all this other pieces that are going on. So the question became for her was she went to doctor she went to naturopath, she went to functional doctor, she spent a shit ton of money trying to get the right testing the right answers and all that. And no one had addressed the issue of digestion, not one person. Okay. And I remember and she shared the story, within the first week of working with me, she was watching one of the videos and we talked about low stomach acid. And I talked about how one of the most important symptoms of low stomach acid is the inability to digest meat. Okay, and boom, the light bulb went on, she got on some stomach acid, we have a product called digestive, which has the stomach acid in it. She said within seven days, her constipation was gone. And she was able to tolerate and eat meat again. And today. She’s a foodie, she loves to cook she loves, she just had a big family gathering she cooked for. And she’s already not just adding all the meat back in. But she’s already adding in all these other foods that she’s been eliminating for years, because she thought she was also allergic to those things. So it’s really fascinating how when you combine the knowledge of learning about digestion, and implementing to think those things, along with accurate testing of actual real food sensitivities, combining the two, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, you get quick results, quick answers, and her life is back. And she was just talking about this on last night’s workshop.

Dan Kuschell  12:26 

I mean, that’s just so amazing, because like, you know, how many millions of people suffer from some version of constipation, and think, oh, Pepto Bismol or whatever to, but it’s not going to the root cause and something so simple, like the domino of just low stomach acid. Right? And it’s likely that what you just said is once you know, better, you can do better. What is it you don’t know about your digestion? What is it you don’t know, potentially, about some of the underlying things related to digestion that are actually holding you back that are costing you peace of mind, sleep, pain, you know, all of these other types of theoretical immune issues or health issues that many people struggle with? And what if something as simple as adding stomach acid into your nutrition helped solve that for you, among the other hundreds of different things that Dr. Maggie can show you depending on your situation,

Dr. Maggie Yu  13:27  

which is like to me I love this little linchpins Yeah,

Dan Kuschell  13:31  

little linchpins, in fact, I keep all these props here. And it’s like a little hinge that swings a big door. Right, little linchpins that swing big doors and, and that’s what I love about what you do. Because, you know, it’s not like a one size fits all. It’s, you know, what I would refer to in a way as pinpoint, based on, you know, like, my profile would be different than your profile and be different than Bob’s profile and my wife’s profile, right? And you have a way to be able to help people pinpoint and then you know, they have their own custom plan. So speak to, you know, I have a deeper understanding of what makes your process your unique method transform so unique in the market. Speak to that a little bit what makes your program unique compared to anybody out there?

Dr. Maggie Yu  14:17 

Well, we have a variety of programs, and we’re talking about food right now. So I’m going to talk about my food mapping masterclass. Specifically, I think about how stop the guessing, right if I had to do this over again, I was just talking to somebody about this. If I had to do this over again, what would I do differently? And I would say Stop guessing earlier. Right? How do you stop guessing earlier as you need accurate data? Right? And the problem is, I think that a lot of people when they think about medicine, they think accurate data is going to come from their doctor, or sometimes they even think going to a naturopath or functional Doctor means that they’re going to get accurate data. And I was explaining to somebody how getting to just figure out which is the best and only test I use To deal with food mapping food allergies results, took me 16 years and I’ve ran over at least 10,000 tests from 40 Different companies in order to figure out what is the best test because there’s a lot of bad tests out there. So for me, it’s like, it’s impossible for an individual for even a bunch of individuals have done all that work over that timeframe to figure that out. Right. So how do we compress that time? To make that, I’ll just tell you what the answer is to be like, Hey, I’m just gonna tell you exactly what you’re gonna do. Number one, number two, I’ve had so much experience with that task. And we’ve had so much experience with that test with real people. That in fact, I’m going to tell you all I’m going to train you all the intricacies that’s different about this test that’s going to unveil all sorts of patterns no one else sees. So I was giving a couple of examples, Dan, where because I’ve done this particular test, we have over 6000 times. One of the things is there patterns that unveiled that they’re like, Oh, that’s not even a real positive because you’ve had this vaccine. Has anyone heard this? Like, or it’s like, oh, wow, that particular result, it looks like it’s borderline. But because it’s in this family that Dr. Maggie knows is the super allergen on this test. That is always a real, and you really shouldn’t need that, right? That’s what I call a false negative, that really should be a positive. But nobody else, even the company that owns the test doesn’t know because you know why the company makes the test technology, but they’re not clinicians delivering those results and working with real people and real clients over 16 years or 26 years of their career, right. So I think the difference is, is that you get the right testing, you get the the expertise and the wisdom of someone who’s troubleshoot through this to so many 1000s of times, they’re just able to tell you, if someone can just tell you something, instead of you having to try 40 different tests, what would that mean for you? What difference is that then going to kiss the next natural path, the next functional doctor, the next medical doctor to beg and beg and beg? And for what, right. So for me, I like to help people cut the line, let’s cut the line at the time the line it takes to get those results, get the right data. And the data is you know, and it’s the right test and get the right mentorship to just be told, be told what the results of that wisdom and that experience has been, right. And then I would say number three is thinking about what the changing, like your whole approach to one on one medicine. Like if the answer was going one on one and begging more and more doctors, no matter how good you think they are in saying I need this visit in six weeks, when I need that visit, I need to go see that specialist. If that system worked. We don’t need to have this compensation. But it didn’t work for me delivering it. And it didn’t work for me receiving it. So how do we bypass that system to your result is you get out of it. And the way we get out of it is through accurate data, your own education and good mentorship to coach you. So you get there fast and you get there accurately. So that’s what we do.

Dan Kuschell  18:03  

And speaking of what they do little hinges swing big doors, right? What would it be worth if you got the accurate testing? And what if you could have a professional that could troubleshoot that testing? And then you had the ability to get a custom pinpoint plan to walk you into the right mentorship to help you solve your biggest challenges. What would that be worth to you? Right? And What’s it costing you not you know, there’s a great Indian proverb that says he or she who has their health has 1000 wishes, he or she who does not has only one? What is good health worth? What is suffering costing you? Even like simple things like mobility, or comfort versus discomfort, or ease versus disease. All of these things play true now Dr. Maggie, wants to learn more and go deeper. And I’ve got several other questions I want to go to but I mean, I think this is a perfect place if someone wants to go learn more about you know how to uncover their own truth for their food situation, their gut their digestion, have the little hinges that swing big doors are the domino that tips over 1000 as it relates to their health, where can they go to learn more, get more information about what you’re offering and doing?

Dr. Maggie Yu  19:22

Yeah, really simple. It’s called myfoodmapping.com So that’s one of our programs, and it’s called myfoodmapping.com One word.com. And there you can check out our program, my food mapping masterclass. And there’s also the ability if you want to chat with a member or a team you can you can just, you know, click the link book a chat with our team and our team would love to speak with you so you can learn more we can learn more about you because we have multiple programs we have we have my hormone masterclass. We also have a main program that actually does every single thing together. So the whole kit and caboodle so depending on what your needs and what’s going on with you. We want to tailor something that’s personal Nice for you.

Dan Kuschell  20:01  

So if you’re looking for a way to get a customized personalized plan, and you’re looking for a way to one, get the right testing, to troubleshoot that testing to make sure you’ve got the right solution, and you’re looking for mentorship to help with, you know, what maybe you’ve been taught about elimination diets like Dr. Maggie is alive, and so inaccurate and what if this one simple approach by going to myfoodmapping.com could help? It’s simple. Go to myfoodmapping.com Right now, number one, you know, get the program number two, if you have questions, of course, she’s got a whole team that can help answer any questions you’ve got no Dr. Maggie, there’s so many questions I want to ask, what is another example,

Dr. Maggie Yu  20:46  

I have a number three for them, though, do it. Number three, you guys love to watch. If you guys love YouTube, and you want to watch videos, I have a YouTube channel, Maggie Yu MD that you can there are literally 1000s of videos on there. And you could put an any topic into my channel, you know, whether it’s bloating, whether it’s autoimmune disease, whether it’s hormone imbalance. And there’s going to be case studies and trainings that I’ve done, I had 1000s of videos over the years that I’ve put up. And so any topic and it could be mast cell histamine intolerance, pots, you name it. And there’s gonna be some videos, trainings and resources there for you. So YouTube is another great way to consume and learn more about and get resources to whatever’s going on with you as well.

Dan Kuschell  21:27 

So go check out YouTube, go to myfoodmapping.com, speak to one of our team or just move forward. And by the way, when you go to our YouTube channel, because I’ve had a good pleasure to actually watch several of the content pieces, it’s going to feel like she’s mentoring you one on one, even though it’s on YouTube. So take full advantage of that opportunity. You know, Dr. Maggie, as you see, let’s talk about this misnomer, misinformation related to sensitivity around food and potentially it being mis calculated misdiagnosed, you kind of hit on it a little bit. Let’s go deeper, a little bit talk about that.

Dr. Maggie Yu  22:05  

So the problem is, is that when we’re talking about food allergies in the medical world, peoples are really focused on what we call IGE allergies, meaning that they’re your immune cells are reacting in an allergic way. And they produce these antibodies, these response molecules called IG II and II think about it like emergency room big fast. So it’s obvious. So think about, you know, your kid who has a peanut allergy, well, if you have an IG allergy, or somebody has a shrimp food allergy, within like seconds or minutes, you know. And so the allergies are really there to through blood tests or skin tests diagnose only IGE allergies. But here’s the thing, scientific fact. IGE antibodies aren’t the only antibodies for allergies. You have other antibodies, for example, like IgG allergies, and I think IgG is a growing slow response. And the thing about what that’s what I love talking about because it is a very different set of symptoms, they’re not the obvious big emergency room symptoms. There are your headaches, your chronic pain, your neuropathy, your autoimmune disease, your brain fog, your add your mood, your autism spectrum, your pots, your mast cell. But the thing is, these vague reactions are different for each person, even though they’re vague. They are very debilitating or significant in your life. But they’re not pinpoint to exactly the food item because it can take hours or days for that reaction to happen. And I love giving this example, let’s say for you, Dan, it’s beef. And it’s broccoli. I mean, it’s beef and his broccoli. Okay, beef with broccoli, let’s say. So, there’s an additive effect also. So for example, let’s say they’re both three points, each, but only above five points. Do you have a symptom? And one week, all you ate was the broccoli, you have any beef and you felt great. The next week, you had the broccoli, but you happen to eat beef on Tuesday and Thursday, you end up having diarrhea. And you’re like, Huh, I wonder if it was the beef. But last week, I had beef and I had no problems, let’s say all right, you know, and but you didn’t have broccoli with it. So the problem is people don’t understand that there is different kinds of allergic reactions besides IgE, that is IgG, you should tell the allergist this, and they’re real, but they’re slow and they’re additive. So then they can get really confusing without the right data. Because you may not have two or three items added together that week that causes a response whereas next week you do so then it feels random. Okay, and because they’re different in each individual, there’s not like a study that says you know, broccoli and fatique you know, broccoli and right toe pain, like it might be right toe pain for Joe but it might be fatigue for em, right. So it is such a more nuanced, personalized route. reaction that people have. And then there’s the additive nature of multiple of these allergens. So this is why your conventional medical doctor is going to dismiss a complaint and say it’s not real, that testing sucks, is not reproducible, and it’s not the same across the board for every person anyway. So this, dismiss it, eat whatever the hell you want. So now you just got a crash course and understanding food sensitivities and food allergies, that’s 10 times greater than the education any of the GI Doc’s analogies ever got. There you go.

Dan Kuschell  25:28  

And what’s so amazing Dr. Maggie, you know, God rest his soul. My wife’s father had passed forward to his new life here in the last couple of months at the time, we’re doing this conversation. And I remember it vividly because he had stomach cancer. And the doctor, when we had asked, well, what can he eat, oh, he can eat anything he wants, which just like sank my heart, that the medical system is still so outdated that that type of outdated advice is being given to someone who’s in their last days essentially, is where he was. And, like, what I kind of envision as you’re describing is related to this is almost like a stacking effect, everybody’s stacking effect is a little bit different. It’s customized pinpoint. And what we have the ability to do with your type of testing, and also then the troubleshooting, from a custom perspective is one identify the stacking, but then identify where the stacking is good, and support you versus the stacking that ultimately put you into inflammation, put your headache put you into a situation where you’re sore, or you’re not sleeping, or you’re bloated, or get all those things you talked about. So as you’re watching, as you’re listening, number one for yourself, but also for the people you love and care about today. And for the future. Like would it be worth to really help someone, essentially, get clarity around their own personal health, their eating habits, it’s one thing that we do every single day. And we have to sustain but we can live in existence, or we can truly live and what it’d be worth for you to get control of that. And I want to encourage you if some of this is just striking a chord at all, and you just want to learn more because again, Dr. Maggie has got so much information available to you take the first step by going to myfoodmapping.com That’s myfoodmapping.com Check out our YouTube channel. All the links will be somewhere here on the page. And I imagine Dr. Maggie will have it on hers as well. Dr. Maggie, what is what is something I should have asked you that I didn’t get a chance to ask you. Yeah.

Dr. Maggie Yu  27:40 

So one of the things that you should have asked me would be what are food so people think of food reactions as relating with only kind of gut issues. Right. And we have touched on some of the other issues. But I want to just blow something like up out there and light a fire under a lot of people just around the word histamines. I think the word a lot of people don’t even understand what does the what what is the histamine and what does it have to do with many of my symptoms. And this is why putting out my food mapping as a program itself is near and dear to my heart because it is actually has a lot to do with histamines and then all histamines isn’t just about allergies is about everything. Take that to the bank as a quote. And what I’m going to tell you is this is that we talked about how you can eat the food and then you have cells floating in your blood called mast cells white blood cells. And when they see the food particles they’re allergic to they make these particles call histamines and they should release them. And then you got all these histamines floating around. And your allergist is gonna think oh, these high histamines that only is going to cause a problem with Alney. So if you’re not having hives, you’re not having eczema. You’re not like asthma breathing problem. It’s not a problem. scientific fact everybody I want you to understand histamines better than your allergists, which is the histamine pathway turns on number one, a pro inflammatory pathway for pain. So if you have chronic pain, and you have let’s say, neuropathy, even TMJ guess what the histamine pathway from food has everything to do with it also number one histamine pathway direct pathway to chronic pain.
