Autoimmune diseases
If you could please do an episode on autoimmune diseases which seem to be rampant and maybe hereditary? I've been eagerly awaiting to hear an episode from you about this. Behavioural protocols such as diet- can avoiding lectins really send autoimmune diseases into remission? Or the mediterranean diet?

NSDR visualisation
In the NSDR script you instruct to imagine yourself in your minds eye standing over yourself, looking down at your seated / lying down body holding a falshlight and directing them to different parts of the body. Do I really have to visualize in my minds eye how the mentioned parts are lightened or is this just an aid so that I can focus on the sensations of the body parts mentioned? Does the visualization have a purpose and does it have to be done? I need a lot of concentration to do this visualisation, I can't perceive the sensations at the same time because my concentration is already flowing into the visualization.
The role of Myelin in Skill building
Hi Andrew, I might have missed this point in your previous podcast but I don’t think you ever mentioned in details the role of Myelin in skill building. Is the research as clear as some books pretend it to be and if so does it extend beyond practical skills? Is myelin also involved as we create routines in the workplace or is it more specific to the strengthening of physical movement patterns? Thanks a lot in advance, Olivier
Potential - Multiple Sclerosis Diagnosis
Hey Andrew, I have a relative who is in the process of being tested for a potential MS diagnosis, after experiencing a seizure and a discovery of spinal tumors. From my understanding, MS affects the Central Nervous System, and in particular, the Myelin that covers/ protects the nerves. Would you be able to provide an explanation/illustration of how exactly MS affects the body? And, any insights that you could share about MS would be helpful. I’d like to be prepared to support my family member in any way possible should they receive a confirmed MS diagnosis. Thank you in advance
