About My Guest:
My guest for this episode is Dr. Christy Sutton. Christy Sutton, DC's interests in asking why health problems occur, what the root causes are, and what are the safest and most effective solutions to health problems are the foundation of her writing, teaching, and clinical practice. Her personal health struggles, and her desperation to find answers to her own serious health problems surrounding Crohn’s and Celiac disease have led her down the alternative healthcare path and to look for ways to find and avoid genetic landmines. Her first book "Genetic Testing: Defining Your Path to a Personalized Health Plan" and its corresponding "Genetic Detoxification" report were the precursors to creating the Labrogenomics educational webinars and to writing her upcoming book "The Iron Curse". Her book "The Iron Curse", inspired by diagnosing her husband and many patients with hereditary hemochromatosis and iron-related health problems, takes a deep dive into hemochromatosis and other iron-related disorders. Her husband's hemochromatosis led to liver problems and likely led to the development of a pituitary tumor that caused Cushing's syndrome. From her experience as a clinician, she has discovered that there is an epidemic of undiagnosed and untreated hemochromatosis, and this epidemic is being driven by myths, misperceptions, and a failure on the part of the medical community that should be diagnosing people with hemochromatosis; a disease that is easy to screen for, prevent, diagnose, and treat. "The Iron Curse" course and upcoming book are powerful tools for ending the epidemic of undiagnosed and untreated hemochromatosis, and they give people the information they need to diagnose, prevent, and correct iron-induced damage.
