Wild Fish Don’t Eat Gluten…and Neither Did We

Posted by Dr. Karl R.O.S. Johnson, DC on Wed, Jul 20, 2011

I could have easily titled this article "Eat, Fish and Be Healthy" but that wouldn't have been as descriptive.  Michigan in the heart of summer is an amazing water wonderland.  She is surrounded by the great lakes that just beg for exploration and the sharing of her bounty.  Recently I hired my friend Captain Dan Cruchon to take my sons and a couple friends and I sport fishing in Lake Huron.  Fishing with Captain Dan Cruchon is always a great experience.  His knowledge and expertise in the field of sport fishing is amazing.  There has never been a time where we have left the boat empty handed.   I’ve made it an annual tradition to hire Captain Dan and his Stormy Chinook to capture food for our family.  We love salmon, trout, walleye and other great lakes fish.  What a great way to add fish to the freezer and best of all it is wild – NOT FARMED.

Untangling Autoimmune Illness Mysteries With Proper Testing

Posted by Dr. Karl R.O.S. Johnson, DC on Thu, Jun 16, 2011

Most people want a linear answer when it comes to answers about their autoimmune illness or other health challenge.  I'd say that a majority of the time when it comes to chronic illness, the solution is more like solving a jigsaw puzzle.

What would you do if you had a LARGE unsightly collection of callous laden warts on the bottom of your right foot, autoimmune attack of your gut, gluten sensitivity and a family history of many autoimmune diseases like Parkinson's disease and rheumatoid arthritis?

The Gluten-Autoimmune Thyroid Connection

Posted by Dr. Karl R.O.S. Johnson, DC on Sun, May 01, 2011

Did you ever rush up to someone you caught a glimpse of and then when you tapped them on the shoulder, you realized it was not who you thought it was?  it's a simple case of mistaken identity.  They had enough attributes of someone you know, to trick your brain into believing it was really them.  Well that is basically how it goes in your body when molecular mimicry occurs and an autoimmune process develops.  In this article I would like to demystify why having gluten sensitivy often leads to autoimmune thyroid - which is the most common cause of hypothyroidism in North America.
