EP704: Ann Shippy, MD - How To Make Your Life Healthy Again

“Your thoughts drive your biology.” 

True health isn’t built in a pill bottle — it starts with the food you eat, the air you breathe, and the thoughts you think. Today’s insights spotlight the root causes of autoimmune disease, why children are getting sicker younger, and how everyday toxins are quietly breaking down human health. The way forward? Listen to your body, screen early, and get upstream before symptoms become disease. 

Dr. Ann Shippy shares her journey from IBM engineer to MD after chronic illness forced her to rethink medicine. Her functional approach blends traditional and environmental medicine to uncover root causes, especially for autoimmune and fertility challenges. From gut health to mitochondria, she shows how treating the whole body yields radical results. She’s now focused on changing the health of future generations—before conception even begins. 

Dr. Shippy is a medical doctor and functional medicine practitioner. She’s the author of The Preconception Revolution. With 20 years of experience helping patients reverse autoimmune conditions and optimize fertility, her mission is to help men and women create the healthiest possible next generation. 

Expert action steps:
