Autoimmune Disease Runs in Families - But It's Not Your Genes Causing It
We often blame our DNA for autoimmune disease and chronic illness. But what if the real inheritance isn’t genetic at all? What if it’s the food on the table, the unspoken stress, the toxins in our homes, and the patterns no one questions?
In this episode of Medical Disruptors, Dr. E talks with Divya Gupta, a former Silicon Valley consultant who left the career everyone admired to reclaim her health. From gallbladder surgery at 20 to a Hashimoto’s diagnosis at 25, Divya reveals how years of dismissed symptoms taught her the most dangerous form of gaslighting is when you start doubting yourself.
She shares why gallbladders aren’t disposable, how the thyroid and liver are deeply connected, and why bile may be the most overlooked part of your health. Together we explore the invisible inheritance families pass down—habits, foods, and beliefs that shape health outcomes for generations.
This conversation challenges the myth that your destiny is written in your DNA. It’s about reclaiming your voice, trusting your body, and breaking cycles that no longer serve you.
