Yalda Alaoui | Decoding Autoimmunity: Causes, Prevalence and What Actually Helps | Ep. 12

Why are autoimmune diseases rising — and what’s really driving this surge?
In this solo masterclass, Yalda Alaoui shares her own life-threatening autoimmune journey and the science behind how lifestyle changes can calm inflammation and restore balance.
Autoimmune conditions now affect around one in ten people in the UK — with women impacted far more than men. In this episode, Yalda explores what autoimmunity truly means, the root causes behind the rise, and how to manage symptoms naturally. Drawing on her personal experience of autoimmune hemolytic anaemia, when she was kept alive by blood transfusions, she reveals how healing the gut, improving sleep, and following an anti-inflammatory lifestyle can transform health and quality of life.
Yalda Alaoui was diagnosed with two autoimmune diseases – Ulcerative Colitis in 2007 and Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia in 2012 – which catalyzed her research into health and nutrition. She traveled the world to find a solution, learning from specialists, nutritionists, naturopaths, and holistic doctors.
She is now the founder of Eat Burn Sleep, a science-based anti-inflammatory lifestyle platform helping people improve their health naturally.
