Join me, Dr. Myriah Hinchey, on the LymeBytes! Podcast as I sit down with Dr. Piper Dobner, a naturopathic physician specializing in chronic illness, gut health, and environmental medicine.
In this inspiring episode, Dr. Dobner unpacks the concept of the rewilded gut—restoring microbial diversity to rebuild immune resilience, especially in people recovering from Lyme disease and other chronic infections. We explore how modern lifestyles, pesticides, and antibiotics damage our internal ecosystems and why true healing goes beyond killing pathogens.
Dr. Dobner shares evidence-based strategies to restore the gut microbiome, including consuming organic, unwashed produce, incorporating fermented foods, and even using helminth therapy to rebalance an overactive immune response. We also discuss the vital connection between gut health, the nervous system, and chronic illness.
If you’re looking for a holistic roadmap to strengthen immunity and reclaim health, don’t miss this episode.

Dr. Dobner explains how modern life depletes our microbial ecosystems and why consuming organic, unwashed produce and fermented foods helps rebuild this internal diversity. We discuss why antibiotics often backfire in chronic illness by damaging beneficial microbes and how herbal antimicrobials can be gentler allies.
She also shares how helminth therapy can reeducate an overactive immune system and why calming the nervous system is essential for gut healing.
