In this episode of&amp;nbsp;Healthily, I\u2019m joined by Nutritional Therapist Elisa Ferguson, who specialises in supporting people with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). We explore the wider story behind autoimmune conditions \u2013 including how stress, gut health, trauma, and diet all interact in powerful ways. We take a look at the&amp;nbsp;cell danger response&amp;nbsp;\u2013 a protective mechanism where the body essentially &quot;hits pause&quot; on certain functions to deal with threat. When this response becomes chronic, it can contribute to many chronic conditions, including MS. Together, we reflect on why people often fall down rabbit holes in search of solutions, and how to find a gentler, more effective way forward. This is an episode full of insight, calm, and connection \u2013 not just for those living with MS, but for anyone curious about how to support whole-body health through the lens of autoimmunity. &amp;nbsp;For more resources, support, and information on how I work, visit&amp;nbsp;www.nicola-moore.com  You'll find details about my clinic, courses, and services designed to support real-life health \u2014 with compassion, clarity and practicality. &amp;nbsp;Are you a qualified nutritional therapist or student practitioner looking for support in clinic?
