132 - Arthritis: The Best Thing That Ever Happened to Me with Phil Escott

Radical Health Rebel · 2025-01-06

Welcome back to the Radical Health Rebel Podcast! Today, I’m joined by Phil Escott, author of Arthritis: The Best Thing That Ever Happened to Me. Phil's journey is nothing short of extraordinary. Once crippled by psoriatic arthritis, he endured years of pain and frustration trying to find answers through conventional medicine and various dietary approaches, including vegetarianism and veganism, which only made his condition worse.

But Phil discovered a path to healing through a radical shift in his diet to purely grass-fed red meats, transforming his health and life in the process. In this episode, we delve deep into what psoriatic arthritis is, the challenges Phil faced on his journey, and the surprising role diet plays in managing this autoimmune condition.

We’ll also uncover some subtle but significant factors that contribute to chronic illness, including unresolved emotions, trauma, and even environmental influences like EMF pollution. Get ready for an eye-opening conversation that challenges conventional thinking and offers hope for anyone struggling with chronic health issues.
