In this episode I speak with Casi Cole, a Mum and Health Coach who SUCCESSFULLY treated her daughters multiple food allergies and severe eczema using helminthic therapy (i.e. probiotic worms) in combination with diet, nutrients and herbal medicine. We discuss her experience discovering, researching and using this therapy and finding the support of a medical doctor.
This fascinating story adds another ray of hope and possibility for those of us living with food sensitivities so be sure to listen. The FULL episode is available on Apple and Google podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and most podcast platforms.

Not for the faint of heart... Could Worms Cure Coeliac Disease?
While it can be confronting to think about it, worms have been living inside of our guts since our earliest beginnings. In fact they have played a big role in shaping how our immune systems function.
Dr Paul Giacomin is an Australian immunologist and researcher who has been studying this relationship between worms and our immune system for a number of years. In this episode I speak with him about the potential benefits worms could have for treating autoimmune diseases like Crohns Disease, Colitis and Coeliac Disease.
I first heard about Paul through his popular TED talk on using worms to treat Coeliac disease which appeared online a few years ago. Naturally I wanted to bring him on the podcast to find out more about this research and where it's up to!
Tune in to hear the results of their first pilot study which looked at whether worms could help those with Coeliac disease to regain tolerance to gluten. We also talk about a more recent study they did and what else it revealed about how we could be treating gluten intolerance.
In this Interview Paul answers questions like;
• What are helminths?
• How could worms benefit gut conditions?
• Can worms restore tolerance to gluten?
• How do worms alter our gut bacteria?
• Should we REALLY be deworming ourselves?
The FULL episode is available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Audible, Stitcher, Youtube and wherever you listen to your podcasts.

In EPISODE #5 of The Sensitive One I am speaking with Food Allergy Counsellor Simone Albert - Food Allergy Counselling
Simone Albert's life and identity changed when her 7 month old son had his first anaphylactic reaction. This had such a big impact on her and her family that she saw the need to provide mental health support to families like hers.
Simone now provides counselling to individuals and families living with food allergies. She has also written a book, "Beyond the Allergy Diagnosis" to help families move through the allergy diagnosis and become stronger.
Some of the KEY topics we discuss in this interview;
• Post traumatic stress following anaphylaxis and who is likely to be affected

We’ve heard of allergy cards, how about chemical sensitivity cards? This one was created by someone who was almost arrested for a DUI after reacting to a scented candle. People with chemical sensitivities can be mistaken for diabetics or alcoholics due to the effects on speech, movement and mood. These cards help people to understand how to help when you cannot help yourself.
