EP29: Fireside Chat with Pam Wirth, Founder of Hello Health

Malnutrition and infection have long been intertwined. Poor nutrition is the leading cause of autoimmune disease around the globe. Five infectious diseases cause more than 50% of children's fatalities below five years, most of which are undernourished.

Given these alarming statistics that might affect our children, I've invited Pamela Wirth to give us a 360 perspective about Nutrition and inflammation: the relationship of food to immune and brain health.

Pamela Wirth is the co-founder of Hello Health® Nutrition that helps children reach their full potential in two therapeutic formulas created for kids and adults seeking immune, brain, and gut support.

She combined her passions of health and wellness, traveling, and helping others write Hello, Health with the support of US doctors and other families, sharing her journey to solve her son's complicated autoimmune disorder. 

Ms. Wirth's consulting, life experiences, and attention to detail supported her to work with several people, including doctors, which enabled Ms. Wirth to create Hello Health, encouraging wellness for children and adults to feel better from the inside out.

Key takeaways covered in the episode: 

Be reminded that every child is different. With that, we should look at the person's whole rather than solve a current issue at hand. Understand the implication of having solutions, research, and treatments around  “person to person” rather than “symptom by symptom”. Draw inspiration from Pamela's experience with her son, how she became her son's biggest advocate, helped him battle his complicated autoimmune disorder, and rippled her impact on many other children and adults. Correct the misconception that you can go to one doctor, and it's all going to be okay. It would be best if you always had a 2nd, 3rd, 4th, or even 5th and 6th opinion.  Look into things like olive leaf, extracting oil of oregano, and how they can help combat, alleviate, and heal complicated autoimmune disorders common among school-aged children. Remember that there's no such thing as the body is to the body; the brain is to the brain. Understand that there is a connection that ties the pieces together. You've got to take care of the body to take care of the brain and vice versa.
