In this episode, Dr. Eric Osansky welcomes thyroid patient advocate, speaker, and bestselling author Rachel Hill to discuss her book, The Positive Thyroid Pregnancy Book. Drawing from both her personal experiences and years of supporting thyroid patients, Rachel shares practical guidance for navigating fertility, pregnancy, and postpartum health while managing hypothyroidism and Hashimoto's thyroiditis. While her focus is primarily on hypothyroidism, much of the conversation applies to anyone dealing with thyroid or autoimmune thyroid conditions. Together, they explore some of the biggest challenges thyroid patients face when trying to conceive, including infertility, miscarriage risk, thyroid antibody management, medication considerations, and optimizing thyroid hormone levels. Rachel also discusses the importance of tracking thyroid labs throughout pregnancy, reducing thyroid antibodies before conception when possible, supporting gut and immune health, balancing blood sugar, addressing nutrient deficiencies, and understanding the role of hormones, diet, exercise, and environmental toxins in fertility and pregnancy outcomes.The conversation concludes with practical advice on prenatal supplements, postpartum thyroid health, building a supportive healthcare team, and advocating for yourself throughout the entire pregnancy journey. If you want a clearer understanding of how to prepare for a healthy pregnancy while managing a thyroid condition, you'll get a lot out of this episode.To take the Save My Thyroid Quiz visit www.savemythyroid.com/quiz Free resources for your thyroid healthGet your FREE Thyroid and Immune Health Restoration Action Points Checklist at SaveMyThyroidChecklist.comHigh-Quality Nutritional Supplements For Hyperthyroidism and Hashimoto' s Have you checked out my new ThyroSave supplement line?

Can hypothyroidism actually be prevented, or is it simply a matter of genetics and bad luck? In this episode, Paloma dives into one of the most common questions people ask about thyroid health and separate myth from reality. You'll learn why there isn't a guaranteed way to prevent every case of hypothyroidism, but also why your lifestyle, nutrition, environmental exposures, and early detection efforts may play a bigger role than you think.We explore the different causes of hypothyroidism—from autoimmune Hashimoto's disease to iodine imbalances, certain medications, and thyroid damage—and discuss which risk factors you can influence and which are beyond your control. You'll discover the warning signs that often appear long before a diagnosis, as well as the practical steps that may help support healthy thyroid function and reduce your risk of developing thyroid-related problems.Whether you have a family history of thyroid disease, are concerned about your own thyroid health, or simply want to take a proactive approach to wellness, this episode offers evidence-based guidance you can put into action today. 

If you've heard of the Autoimmune Protocol but felt like it was too restrictive to even try — or you've done it and wondered if you were doing it right — this episode is worth your time. I sat down with Mickey Trescott, one of the key people behind AIP, to talk about her new book The New AIP. We get into the actual clinical research (IBD, Hashimoto's, and RA studies), what the results really showed, and the newly formalized Modified AIP pathway that makes the protocol far more accessible than most people realize. We also bust the biggest myth about AIP — that it's just a restrictive diet — and talk about what the protocol actually involves beyond food, how long you should stay in elimination, when to troubleshoot if it's not working, and what the long game looks like when you're living with a chronic condition. Mickey also shares her own recent health setback — a new psoriatic arthritis diagnosis 15 years into her journey — and what she actually did about it. Practical, research-backed, and refreshingly honest. For the complete show notes, links and transcripts, visit inspiredliving.show/248

Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend!   I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks…   Matt: Hi Dr Cabral, I'm constantly trying to improve my sleep but can rarely ever get more than 6 to 6 1/2 hours consistently. If I go to bed earlier, I wake up earlier ready to go. Right now I'm taking 2g of taurine, balanced zinc, 500mg magnesium, 100mg theanine, 50mg Apagenin and 3g of glycine. I have no problem falling asleep but consistently wake up around 3-4am. I recently added some Inositol to help get back to sleep but I can't really remember the last time I went to sleep and woke up the next morning by my alarm clock. Just to note, I'm 45 with 3 kids that also like to pop in our room in the middle of the night. Any tips to help get that 7-8 hours I need?       Tricia: Hello Dr C! I'm 57 and I tested my estrogen and progesterone. I'm of course estrogen dominant. I started taking your progesterone support and gosh it is amazing! My sleep has gotten even better! My question is do you think I should take the estrogen supplement too to help balance the two? Are these usually lifetime supplements for post menopausal women? Thanks     Kevin: Just received my annual labs back for annual physical and total Cholesterol is 299, Triglycerides 70, HDL 105, LDL 180, ratio 3.8, and LDL Direct at 182. I have Hashimoto disease, candida for past couple of years and mycotoxins from mold exposure. I cant afford to move out of house so I'm still exposed. I had a functional doctor but can no longer afford the out of pocket expenses. I was on cholestramine powder along with binders but stopped doing them last year because not helping. I'm really worried about having stroke or heart attack. I don't know where to start anymore and been told without moving nothings going to work. What do you recommend I do.? I plan on purchasing Proteolytic Enzymes with Nattokinase to hopefully reduce plaque. What tests do you think would be best for me?       Sienna: Hi Dr. Cabral - hoping you can help! In a country where FM labs aren't an option + entering into mid-40's, surrounded by Perimenopause "fear". I have done your hormone HRA + apart from feeling like I get TRIGGERED a lot easier, I don't have more of the common symptoms (ie night sweats). My cycle the last 2 months was slightly longer but don't want to over think it. I am wondering if there are bloods that can help outline where we are in terms of our hormones (I know saliva is preferable)... I really want to support my hormones, and know you say we can do this naturally well into later life ie 60's! I know estrogen declines + ED is common - would appreciate markers to look at, ranges + if your wife couldn't test what you'd recommend for her :) Thank you for ALL you do! Sienna       Rianna: Hi Dr. Cabral! Sleep it's an area I am REALLY focused on supporting - we know when we are tired everything is harder ;-) & I am all about energy as I move towards my mid-40's.. I track my sleep on Garmin + know you mention Deep Sleep (90 mins) + Rem Sleep (2+ hours) as ideals, but I am no where near there consistently. The only time I get quite close is during my detox. My HRV has improved considerably (almost doubled) since Jan(through substantially reducing alcohol intake + focusing on sleep hygiene). I average on 7 - 7.5 hours sleep, mostly right through or brief wake, + mostly feel great/rested. My REM sleep this morning was 0 minutes (??) - is that reall even possible? 80 mins deep, 6.5 hrs"light" - how much attention would you give it if you feel recharged? Tips? Thx for all you do!     Thank you for tuning into this weekend's Cabral HouseCalls and be sure to check back tomorrow for our Mindset & Motivation Monday show to get your week started off right!   - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/3782 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?

Could your “normal” labs be missing the real reason you feel exhausted, foggy, or stuck? I'm joined by Dr. Amie Hornaman, known as The Thyroid Fixer, to talk about why so many women over 40 are told their labs are normal while still feeling tired, foggy, inflamed, and unable to lose weight. We dig into thyropause, Hashimoto's, reverse T3, thyroid medication, and the exact labs women should ask for if they want real answers. My hope is that this episode helps you stop blaming yourself and start testing, advocating, and getting the support your body actually needs. What you'll learn: (06:28) Why Dr. Amie Hornaman believes “thyropause” deserves more attention for women over 40. (07:56) Why standard thyroid testing often misses what is actually happening inside the body. (11:20) How Hashimoto's, hormonal shifts, stress, toxins, and autoimmune triggers may contribute to thyroid issues. (13:15) Why TSH alone may not tell the full story of your thyroid health. (14:43) How reverse T3 can push the body into a survival-mode state that slows metabolism. (17:22) Which thyroid labs Dr. Hornaman recommends asking your doctor to run. (24:30) How thyroid symptoms and perimenopause symptoms can overlap and influence one another. (43:35) How GLP-1s, inflammation, and thyroid optimization may intersect when used appropriately.

What if the symptoms you blame on your thyroid—fatigue, weight gain, brain fog, anxiety, poor sleep, and even hormone imbalances—are being amplified by something hiding in plain sight? In this episode, we explore the powerful and often overlooked relationship between stress and thyroid health, and why managing stress may be one of the most important steps you can take to feel better. |You'll learn how chronic stress affects the nervous system, immune function, hormones, and thyroid health, and why even everyday stressors—poor sleep, financial worries, relationship challenges, infections, injuries, and overwork—can worsen hypothyroid and Hashimoto's symptoms. We also discuss the surprising ways stress can contribute to fatigue, weight struggles, mood changes, inflammation, and autoimmune flare-ups, often creating a cycle that leaves many thyroid patients feeling stuck.Most importantly, you'll discover practical, research-backed strategies to break that cycle. From mindfulness and breathwork to gentle movement and creative activities that calm the nervous system, this episode shares simple tools that can help reduce stress, support thyroid function, and improve overall well-being.

Learn why normal TSH levels don't always mean optimal thyroid health, how thyroid antibodies affect the entire body, and what current research reveals about their significance.Dr. Gupta also shares practical strategies for lowering thyroid antibodies and a real patient success story that demonstrates what's possible when the root causes of autoimmune thyroid disease are addressed.If you've been told your antibodies don't matter, this episode may change the way you think about your thyroid health.

On the Evolving Wellness podcast, host Sarah interviews her co-coach Becky about menopause and weight loss, focusing on simple behaviors that sabotage progress and the importance of addressing root causes. Becky shares her history of dieting (including Weight Watchers, keto, and 2.5 years of carnivore), a complete hysterectomy at 29 that put her into surgical menopause, intolerance to HRT, and struggles with insulin-resistant weight gain and Hashimoto's that did not improve on long-term carnivore. She describes improvements after reintroducing foods, implementing circadian practices, balancing macros (including adding carbs), focusing on nervous system regulation, and using lab work to guide medication changes, leading to Hashimoto's remission and nearly 63 pounds lost while maintaining muscle. They emphasize consistency over perfection, honest self-assessment, community support, and the roles of light, sleep, and adequate nourishment, and promote an info session and upcoming Blueprint cohort starting June 22.— THE BIO-INDIVIDUAL BLUEPRINT INFO SESSION - https://www.sarahkleinerwellness.com/blueprint-live-info-sessionConnect With Becky:Website / Coaching: https://beyondnutrition.mykajabi.com/becky-niles-coachingAffilate Links: https://beyondnutrition.mykajabi.com/coach-becky-s-affiliate-thingsCommunity: https://beyondnutrition.mykajabi.com/Becky Sarah Kleiner Wellness Coaching:  https://www.sarahkleinerwellness.com/offers/roupFwau/checkoutSocial MediaX / Twitter: @nilesbecky Instagram: @iambeckyniles Facebook:Becky Niles CoachingThreads: @iambeckynilesTikTok: @iambeckynilesYouTube: Beyond Nutrition CommunityLinkedIn: Becky Niles Pinterest: @iambeckyniles_________Sponsored By:→ VivaRays | This episode is sponsored by VivaRays - VivaRays Blue - code YOGI https://vivarays.com/→ Bon Charge | Go to https://boncharge.com/products/demi-red-light-device?rfsn=8108115.26608d & use code SARAHKLEINER for 15% off storewide._________Timestamp:00:00 Hidden Sabotage Habits00:53 Show Intro and Guest04:27 Becky's Health Journey05:47 Surgical Menopause and HRT07:02 Carnivore Experiment Lessons10:57 Circadian Shift and Remission13:51 Blue Blockers Sponsor15:20 Labs and Individual Protocols21:59 Red Light Office Sponsor24:22 Nervous System and Honesty28:28 Light Stress and Willpower30:06 Morning Cortisol Levers30:26 Blue Light Risky Choices31:17 Accountability And Support32:23 Keto Carnivore Rebound33:46 Seasonal Eating Signals35:03 Consistency Over Perfection36:55 Community Beats Loneliness38:33 Menopause Weight Loss Truth44:54 Undereating Conservation Mode51:44 Circadian Rhythm Fat Loss53:04 Coaching Invite And Wrap54:52 Real Stories Final Message——— This video is not medical advice & as a supporter to you and your health journey - I encourage you to monitor your labs and work with a professional!________________________________________Get all my free guides and product recommendations to get started on your journey!https://www.sarahkleinerwellness.com/all-free-resourcesCheck out all my courses to understand how to improve your mitochondrial health & experience long lasting health!

In this episode, Dr. Eric Osansky takes a deep dive into black seed oil (Nigella sativa) and its potential role in supporting thyroid and autoimmune thyroid conditions such as Hashimoto's thyroiditis and Graves' disease. He explains the differences between whole black seed, powdered black seed, black seed oil, and black seed essential oil, highlighting why these distinctions matter when interpreting the research. Dr. Eric reviews the available studies, including a clinical trial involving people with Hashimoto's thyroiditis that demonstrated improvements in thyroid markers, thyroid antibodies, and metabolic health. He also discusses the antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and immune-modulating properties of Nigella sativa, exploring how these mechanisms may support immune system balance and potentially benefit those with autoimmune conditions. Along the way, he addresses important considerations such as supplement quality, thymoquinone content, product variability, and potential contraindications.Finally, Dr. Eric offers a balanced perspective on where black seed oil fits into a comprehensive thyroid-healing strategy. While the research is promising, he explains why it isn't a supplement he routinely recommends to every patient and discusses how it compares to other antioxidant-support supplements. If you want a clearer understanding of black seed oil, the science behind it, and whether it may have a place in your thyroid health journey, you'll get a lot out of this episode.To take the Save My Thyroid Quiz visit www.savemythyroid.com/quiz Free resources for your thyroid healthGet your FREE Thyroid and Immune Health Restoration Action Points Checklist at SaveMyThyroidChecklist.comHigh-Quality Nutritional Supplements For Hyperthyroidism and Hashimoto' s Have you checked out my new ThyroSave supplement line?

For years, we've treated PCOS like an ovary problem.  But what if the ovaries are simply where the symptoms show up?  What if the real issue starts with insulin, inflammation, and metabolic signaling long before cysts ever appear on an ultrasound? In this episode, we're taking a deeper look at why GLP-1 peptides have been so effective for many women with PCOS—and why their benefits extend far beyond weight loss. We'll explore the connection between insulin resistance, testosterone, irregular cycles, fertility challenges, and the metabolic dysfunction that frequently sits at the root of PCOS.  You'll learn why many traditional approaches focus on managing symptoms, while GLP-1s may be helping address one of the key drivers behind them. We'll also discuss why PCOS isn't simply a hormone problem or an ovary problem, and how understanding the body's interconnected systems can change the way we think about treatment and healing. Because when you stop focusing on the branches and start looking at the roots, the entire conversation about PCOS begins to change. If you're struggling with PCOS, weight loss resistance, or hormone symptoms and want a personalized approach, I'd love to help.

Cindy received her BS degree in Dietetics many moons ago and then found Functional Medicine over 23 years ago when she was going through a very difficult time in her life- her digestive system was rebelling like a teenager, and was thrown into an early menopause at the age of 43. Since that time, she's never looked back and has helped 100's of clients heal through the functional medicine lens.  One of Cindy's super powers is to research, connect the dots, listen and to teach. She likes to dig deep. She doesn't take things at face value. She's happiest when she's in front of an audience, even an audience of one. Along with helping her ladies in her 1:1 telehealth practice, she offers courses, lab work assessments and teaches yoga. She's also a mom and grandma. Her main goal is to help women have the ability to be their own healthcare advocate.

(00:00) — Pre-k graduation and "I want to be a baby doctor": Where the idea of medicine first appeared for Riya.(01:07) — Seventh-grade biology and Hashimoto's thyroiditis: The classroom moment that made medicine feel like a real possibility.(02:24) — Hospital volunteering in high school: First clinical exposure, patient interaction, and what sparked genuine interest.(04:57) — Discovering combined BSMD and BSDO programs: How Riya and her mom researched programs in eleventh grade and decided to pursue them.(06:45) — Reflecting on the accelerated path: Whether finishing undergrad in three years meant missing out.(07:15) — The MCAT decision: Why avoiding the MCAT was a meaningful factor in choosing a program.(09:12) — Applying to 23 schools: The breakdown of combined versus traditional applications and getting into four programs.(10:05) — Choosing between programs: Family proximity, location, and the DO philosophy as deciding factors.(10:54) — Why DO over MD: What the osteopathic mind-body-spirit philosophy and hands-on technique meant to her personally.(12:22) — Conditional acceptance pressure in undergrad: Carrying valedictorian stress into a three-year sprint.(13:42) — The hardest semester: o-chem, biochem, and anatomy simultaneously with three concurrent labs.(14:45) — Physical planners and time management: How Riya stayed on top of classes, tutoring, and two research projects.(15:33) — Finding The Premed Years on a two-hour drive: How the podcast became part of her routine.(17:10) — Medical school versus premed undergrad: Why the schedule now feels more manageable.(19:14) — Finding your own study method: Why copying what works for others often backfires.(24:19) — Menstrual health app, a thousand-dollar prize, and a TikTok research project: How curiosity led to unexpected opportunities.(26:54) — Words for the stressed premed: Gratitude journals, getting back up, and holding on to small happy moments.Riya knew she wanted to be a doctor before she could fully explain what that meant. By eleventh grade she was researching combined BSDO and BSMD programs with her mom, and she eventually applied to around fifteen of them alongside traditional schools. She got into four combined programs and chose a three-plus-four DO pathway that let her stay near family during undergrad before moving states for medical school. The cost was real: she finished prerequisites in three years, took organic chemistry, biochemistry, and anatomy in the same semester with three concurrent labs, tutored classmates, and ran two research projects simultaneously. She also drove two hours home most weekends and, on those drives, found this podcast. Now in medical school and studying for Step, Riya reflects on choosing DO over MD, what the osteopathic philosophy genuinely gave her, and why she has no regrets about any of it. She talks honestly about the stress of a conditional acceptance, the trial and error of finding a study method that actually works, and how keeping a gratitude journal got her through a brutal first semester away from family.What You'll Learn:- How combined BSMD and BSDO programs work and what it actually takes to stay in one through undergrad.- Why one student chose a DO program over MD programs she was also accepted to, and what that decision has meant in practice.- How to manage an overwhelming premed course load using intentional time planning rather than sheer willpower.- Why finding your own study method matters more than copying the approaches that work for classmates.- How following genuine curiosity across research, hackathons, and extracurriculars can open doors that a straight-line approach would miss.

In this Ask Me Anything episode, Dr. Will Cole and his team answer three listener questions that go deeper than most: BPC-157 for osteopenia at 35 and the full food-first bone density protocol, what to do when you live within a mile of a golf course and have Hashimoto's while pregnant, and ovarian cysts with a doctor who only offers birth control. They also cover the PCOS-to-PMOS name change — what it means clinically, why functional medicine has known about the metabolic component for years, and whether the timing of the rebrand is a little too convenient given the GLP-1 explosion.

What if the pressure to be “good” is making women physically sick? In this eye-opening episode, Dr. Dan sits down with award-winning filmmaker, entrepreneur, and author Sara Hirsh Bordo to explore the powerful connection between autoimmune disease, trauma, people-pleasing, and self-abandonment as well as to discuss Sara's powerful new book Autoimmunity and the Good Girls: How Permission to Put Ourselves First Has the Power to Keep Us Well. After being diagnosed with multiple serious health conditions—including Hashimoto's thyroiditis, melanoma, tumors, Epstein-Barr, mold poisoning, and heavy metal toxicity—Sara began asking a life-changing question: What if years of self-betrayal were making her body turn against itself? Through deeply personal storytelling, groundbreaking research, and profound insight, Sara shares how decades of prioritizing others over herself created patterns that impacted both her emotional and physical well-being. Together, she and Dr. Dan unpack the “good girl” conditioning so many women experience, the hidden cost of chronic self-sacrifice, and how reclaiming authenticity may be one of the most important healing journeys of all. This conversation is compassionate, courageous, and transformative—for women, men, families, leaders, and anyone seeking deeper self-awareness and healing.

Are you still exhausted even though you're doing everything you can for your Hashimoto's? The problem might be something you literally cannot feel. Vitamin D is one of the most common root cause triggers for Hashimoto's, and most women have no idea their levels are low. You cannot feel it when your vitamin D is low. You cannot feel it when it is high. The only way to know is to test. And if your levels are not where they need to be, your immune system is missing one of its most important tools for calming down. In this episode, Esther breaks down why vitamin D is a root cause trigger for Hashimoto's, how it works in your immune system, and what you actually need to know about getting your levels up, whether that is through summer sun exposure or smart supplementation. In this episode, you will learn: Why vitamin D acts like a brake system for your immune system and what happens when those brakes fail What optimal vitamin D levels actually look like and why "not deficient" is not good enough How summer sun exposure works, why it is not as simple as going outside, and what to do about it year round Ready to map out all of your root causes? Hashimoto's Decoded: Root Causes Revealed walks you through the whole picture in under an hour, with a workbook to help you figure out your next step. https://healthwithhashimotos.com/hashimotos-decoded/   RELATED EPISODES: #9: Vitamin D and Autoimmune Disease #62: How to pick a vitamin D supplement   JOIN THE HEALTH WITH HASHIMOTO'S COMMUNITY Unlock your wellness journey with the free Health with Hashimoto's community!

Why Your Thyroid Is the "Check Engine Light" Your thyroid is the check engine light, not the engine. With Hashimoto's, the real story is happening in your gut, your immune system, and your stress physiology, often years before your thyroid shows it. If you have Hashimoto's and you're only chasing your thyroid numbers, you're missing the bigger question: why is your immune system attacking your thyroid in the first place? In this episode of the Medical Disruptor, I break down what Hashimoto's actually is, what the standard "replace the hormone" approach misses, and why your low-functioning thyroid is often a check engine light for something deeper, including gut health, gluten, infections, chronic stress, and toxins. I'm Dr. E, the NP with the PhD, and I help humans go from medically gaslit to medically empowered. We'll cover leaky gut and the gluten-to-TPO connection, the gut microbiome's role in converting T4 to T3, infections like EBV and H. pylori, how chronic stress and cortisol affect your thyroid, endocrine-disrupting toxins, and the smartest next steps to take before you reach for supplements.

Many people with hypothyroidism or Hashimoto's are surprised when they begin experiencing symptoms like bloating, constipation, food sensitivities, gallstones, fat intolerance, reflux, or elevated cholesterol. These issues are often treated as separate conditions, but they may all be connected through one important physiological relationship: the connection between thyroid function, bile flow, gallbladder health, and digestion. In this episode, Dr. Eric Balcavage explains why thyroid physiology influences far more than metabolism. Thyroid hormone signaling affects stomach acid production, digestive enzymes, gut motility, bile production, gallbladder contraction, cholesterol metabolism, microbiome balance, nutrient absorption, and even the integrity of the gut barrier. When thyroid physiology is altered, digestive function often changes along with it. Dr. Balcavage explores the critical role bile plays in digestion and overall health, including how bile acids function as powerful signaling molecules that influence metabolism, inflammation, blood sugar regulation, thyroid hormone activation, microbiome health, and immune function. He also explains why reduced T4-to-T3 conversion can impair bile production, gallbladder emptying, and bile delivery into the small intestine, creating a cascade of digestive and metabolic symptoms. You'll learn why digestive symptoms, gallbladder problems, dysbiosis, leaky gut, and elevated cholesterol are often downstream effects of chronic stress physiology and reduced thyroid signaling rather than isolated problems. Dr. Balcavage also discusses common bile-support strategies including ox bile, TUDCA, phosphatidylcholine, taurine, glycine, choline, magnesium, and bitters, explaining when they may be helpful and why they often serve as temporary management tools rather than long-term solutions. Most importantly, this episode highlights why addressing the underlying causes of reduced thyroid signaling and chronic physiologic strain is essential for lasting recovery. In This Episode, You'll Learn: Why people with thyroid problems commonly develop gut, bile, and gallbladder issues The important role bile plays beyond fat digestion How bile acids influence metabolism, inflammation, microbiome balance, and thyroid hormone activation Why reduced T4-to-T3 conversion can impair bile production and bile flow The connection between hypothyroidism, elevated cholesterol, and gallbladder dysfunction How altered bile flow contributes to bloating, constipation, food sensitivities, dysbiosis, and leaky gut Why digestive symptoms are often adaptive responses to physiologic stress The relationship between chronic stress, reduced thyroid signaling, and digestive dysfunction When bile-support supplements like ox bile, TUDCA, taurine, glycine, choline, and phosphatidylcholine may be beneficial Why symptom management alone often fails to create long-term improvement The key factors that may be driving reduced thyroid signaling and digestive dysfunction beneath the surface Resources Mentioned:

In this episode, Dr. Eric Osansky tackles a question that often surprises thyroid patients: Can Hashimoto's thyroiditis turn into Graves' disease, and can Graves' disease eventually become Hashimoto's? While these conditions are commonly viewed as opposites—one causing hypothyroidism and the other hyperthyroidism—Dr. Eric explains why the relationship between them isn't always so straightforward. Dr. Eric breaks down the differences between the thyroid antibodies associated with each condition, explains how antibody patterns can overlap, and discusses why some people test positive for both Graves' and Hashimoto's antibodies at the same time. He also explores possible reasons these transitions occur, including immune dysregulation, environmental triggers, gut health issues, nutrient deficiencies, chronic stress, infections, mold exposure, and hormonal changes. Along the way, he clarifies common misconceptions about Hashitoxicosis, “thyroid burnout,” and the importance of proper antibody testing.Most importantly, Dr. Eric emphasizes that both Graves' disease and Hashimoto's are immune system conditions rather than simply thyroid disorders. By focusing on identifying triggers, restoring immune balance, and supporting gut health, it's possible to improve symptoms, lower antibodies, and achieve long-term remission.

If you've been diagnosed with Hashimoto's but still don't feel like yourself, your gut may be part of the puzzle. In this episode, Brooke sits down with her new team member, Emily, to discuss GI-MAP stool testing, how it works, and what it can reveal about hidden infections, microbial imbalances, and digestive dysfunction that may be impacting thyroid health. You'll learn how comprehensive stool testing can uncover root causes that traditional testing often misses, why personalized protocols are more effective than generic supplement recommendations, and who may benefit most from this type of advanced testing.

What if the exhaustion, brain fog, weight gain, constipation, and low mood you've been blaming on “getting older” aren't aging at all? In this eye-opening episode, we unpack the surprising ways thyroid problems—especially hypothyroidism—can quietly disguise themselves as everyday signs of aging. From feeling cold all the time to struggling with memory lapses, discover why so many people overlook the subtle symptoms of an underactive thyroid and what your body may really be trying to tell you.You'll learn about the seven most common “normal aging” symptoms that may actually point to thyroid dysfunction, why these issues are so often missed in older adults, and the key warning signs that deserve a closer look. We also explore the powerful connection between thyroid health, metabolism, mood, cognition, digestion, and energy—and why getting the right thyroid testing can be life-changing.If you've ever wondered whether your fatigue, slower thinking, unexplained weight changes, or lack of motivation are truly inevitable, this episode could change the way you think about aging and your health.

What if someone living at the center of pop culture and public scrutiny was quietly fighting the same toxic health battles you are, and nobody talked about it?Jenny McCarthy joins KB for a raw, unfiltered conversation about autoimmune disease, mold toxicity, vaccine injury, and the clean beauty lies hiding in your makeup bag.

If you have Hashimoto's and have been told your blood sugar is "borderline" or "fine for now," this conversation will change how you think about it. Inna sits down with Dr. Jason Shumard, a functional medicine practitioner with more than two decades of experience in diabetes and insulin resistance, to unpack why blood sugar troubles and thyroid autoimmunity so often travel together. The surprising takeaway is that elevated blood sugar usually isn't a sugar problem at all. It's a signal that something has gone wrong at the level of the cell, and chasing the number alone tends to leave the real issue untouched.Dr. Jason walks through what's actually happening when insulin can no longer do its job, and why the receptors on your cells stop responding in the first place. He explains the role that hidden drivers like infections, mold, heavy metals, chronic inflammation and everyday stress play in keeping the cycle going, and why these overlap so heavily with the same triggers behind Hashimoto's. He and Inna also dig into the lab markers worth paying attention to beyond a basic glucose reading, the optimal ranges he looks for, and the simple ratio already sitting on most standard bloodwork that can flag insulin resistance early.The discussion gets especially practical around carbohydrates, GLP-1 medications, and the idea of cycling rather than relying on any single tool forever. Dr. Jason offers a refreshingly balanced view, neither demonizing carbs nor treating medications as a permanent fix, and shares why restoring true cellular function is what allows so many people to move toward remission. It's an honest, hopeful look at a topic that affects far more people with thyroid issues than most realize, and a reminder that the body is often far more capable of healing than we've been led to believe.For full show notes, please see: https://innatopiler.com/podcasts/lowering-blood-sugar-insulin-resistance-hashimotos-dr-jason-shumard/Get ThyroLove - the first all in one bottle multi-nutrient comprehensive formula designed specifically for those with Thyroid Autoimmunity at ThyroLove.com - use code “Podcast” to get 10% off and free shipping If you are struggling to lose weight with Hashimoto's, Inna has a 10 day plan just for you at InnaTopiler.com/jumpstartIf you need help with fatigue or brain fog with Hashimoto's, please check out Inna's 9 Day Exhaustion Solution at innatopiler.com/energyIf you don't yet know your thyroid type, please be sure you sign up for Inna's next free training at InnaTopiler.com/zoomcallFor more information about everything Hashimoto's please visit InnaTopiler.com Get ThyroLove - use code “Podcast” to get 10% off and free shipping 

Less than 25% of people with IBS get real relief from conventional medicine. That number tells you everything about how the current approach is failing.Most people with IBS have been told it is stress, told to take medication, and sent home. But irritable bowel syndrome is not one condition, it is a label applied to a cluster of symptoms that can have 20 to 40 completely different root causes. And left unaddressed, it is one of the most reliable predictors of autoimmune disease down the line.In this episode I sit down with Dr. Izabella Wentz, clinical pharmacist, functional medicine expert, and NYT bestselling author known as the Thyroid Pharmacist.

Could lupus and Sjögren's symptoms improve in just weeks with the right diet and lifestyle changes? Dr. Brooke Goldner joins Chuck Carroll to share the remarkable stories of patients with autoimmune disease who experienced dramatic recoveries after following her Goodbye Autoimmune Disease protocol. This conversation is especially personal for me. There are people close to me who have struggled for decades with many of the same issues Dr. Goldner and I discuss in this interview. I shared this episode with one of them before releasing it publicly, and they were blown away by what she had to say. Dr. Goldner discusses her 2024 case series involving three women with both lupus and Sjögren's syndrome who reported symptom remission within weeks after following a raw, whole-food, plant-based nutrition protocol. She also shares her own story of being diagnosed with aggressive lupus as a teenager, facing kidney failure and mini strokes, and later living symptom-free for more than 20 years.

In this episode, Dr. Eric interviews acupuncturist, author, and educator Robin Ray Green about the often-overlooked environmental stressors that can silently interfere with thyroid health, immune function, energy, and healing. Drawing from her own personal journey with mold illness, Robin explains how invisible stressors like mold, poor water quality, EMFs, and air pollution can overwhelm the body—even when someone is following a clean diet and healthy lifestyle.Robin shares how chronic mold exposure dramatically impacted her health, leading to debilitating fatigue, brain fog, and burnout despite doing everything “right.” This experience led her to explore the deeper root causes of chronic illness and uncover how environmental toxins, poor sleep environments, electronic pollution, and hidden emotional stressors can keep the body stuck in a constant state of stress and inflammation.The conversation also explores practical strategies for reducing toxic burden, improving sleep quality, choosing better water filtration systems, minimizing EMF exposure, and supporting the body's natural healing processes. If you want a clearer, more balanced understanding of the hidden stressors affecting your thyroid and overall health, you'll get a lot out of this episode.

Full Show Notes: https://bengreenfieldlife.com/newAIP In this episode with Mickey Trescott, you'll hear how she went from bedridden at 26 with Hashimoto's and celiac to overseeing four pilot trials, helping grow a community of 1,000 trained AIP practitioners, and writing the first official update to the Autoimmune Protocol, including a new modified version for people who found the original too restrictive. We cover what a full day of eating on AIP actually looks like, why food sensitivity panels cannot replace elimination and reintroduction, how to use WHOOP to track food reactions, the genetics of autoimmunity, the iodine problem in Hashimoto's, and why three out of four people who follow AIP properly get meaningful clinical improvement. Mickey is a nutrition professional and one of the founding leaders of the Autoimmune Protocol movement. She wrote the original AIP cookbook, which became the definitive guide to the protocol. Her new book, The New Autoimmune Protocol, releasing May 26, 2026, includes detailed meal plans and 70+ recipes across both the core and modified protocols. Pre-order your copy here.

Went to your doctor in your early 40s with sudden anxiety, insomnia, brain fog or unexplained weight gain — and walked out with an antidepressant? Author and nurse practitioner Dani Williamson joins Dr. Chris Motley to explain why SSRIs are not the answer to perimenopause, what's actually happening in your body as estrogen drops, and how healing your gut can bring your thyroid and hormones back into balance.  Key Takeaways from this Conversation: Women are being prescribed SSRIs for anxiety when the real cause is perimenopause. There's no SSRI for that.  Estrogen-loss comes with mood symptoms, weight gain and health concerns like Hashimoto's Thyroiditis as your thyroid begins to slow down.  Fix your gut and your thyroid and hormones will (usually!) fall into place.  Dani Williamson's Top 7 Most Inflammatory Food: Gluten Dairy Soy Corn  Sugar Eggs  Peanuts If your doctor's reaction to a health concern brought on by estrogen-loss is “let's just watch this for 6 months,” it's time to find a new doctor.  A tiny low-dose estrogen patch can change your perimenopause game.  Healing trauma and abuse is key (especially when it comes to thyroid health): Unaddressed childhood trauma can collide with the body-chaos of perimenopause. EMDR and talk therapy can help with this journey.   ------  Follow Doctor Motley!

“What if your body isn't failing you… but asking for a different kind of support?” In this episode, Dr. Mariza sits down with Mickey Trescott to unpack the powerful connection between inflammation, autoimmune disease, gut health, and perimenopause. Together, they explore why so many women are dismissed when labs look “normal” despite debilitating symptoms like fatigue, bloating, brain fog, joint pain, skin issues, and weight resistance. Mickey shares her personal journey with Hashimoto's, celiac disease, and autoimmune recovery—and how the Autoimmune Protocol (AIP) became a transformative tool for reducing inflammation and helping millions feel better in their bodies. They also dive into the evolution of AIP over the last 15 years, the newest research validating its effectiveness, and why perimenopause often becomes an inflammatory inflection point where hidden symptoms suddenly rise to the surface. If you've been struggling with chronic inflammation, unexplained symptoms, or feeling dismissed by conventional medicine, this conversation will help you connect the dots—and give you practical hope moving forward. MICKEY TRESCOTT Mickey Trescott is a nutritional therapy practitioner, cookbook author, and co-creator of the Autoimmune Protocol (AIP). After being diagnosed with Hashimoto's thyroiditis and celiac disease in her twenties, she dedicated her work to helping people navigate autoimmune disease through nutrition, lifestyle medicine, and inflammation support. She has helped shape the modern AIP movement and trained hundreds of healthcare practitioners around the world. IN THIS EPISODE Why autoimmune disease impacts women at significantly higher rates How inflammation often worsens during perimenopause and menopause The connection between gut health, food sensitivities, and immune regulation Why “normal labs” don't always reflect how women actually feel The science and research behind the Autoimmune Protocol (AIP) The difference between Core AIP and the newer Modified AIP approach Why food reintroductions and personalization are key for long-term healing QUOTES“Your body is not working against you. It's asking for a different level of support.” “Three out of every four-ish people get clinical improvement from doing an elimination diet when you have autoimmune disease.” “When hormones begin to shift, the body becomes far less tolerant of underlying inflammation.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Order my new book: The Perimenopause Revolution https://peri-revolution.com/ Use code ENERGIZED and get 30% off on your first BATCH order http://hellobatch.com/ENERGIZED Grab Mickey's new AIP book  https://theautoimmuneprotocol.com/ Visit Autoimmune Wellness Website Autoimmune Wellness Instagram Mickey Trescott Instagram Mickey Trescott Facebook Mickey Trescott Youtube RELATED EPISODES  747: The Silent Shift: Why Perimenopause Changes Everything 717: “I Don't Feel Like Myself Anymore”: The Mental & Emotional Reality of Perimenopause 741: Estrogen, Gut Health, and Metabolism with Siobhan Mitchell 728: Why Brain Fog Isn't Random: The Hormone Shift Behind It

This week on The Anxiety Chicks, we're diving deeper into the connection between anxiety and Hashimoto's with special guest. After opening the conversation in a previous episode, we wanted to bring on an expert to help break down what Hashimoto's actually is, how it can impact both physical and mental health, and why symptoms like anxiety, panic, depression, fatigue, brain fog, and feeling “off” shouldn't always be dismissed as just anxiety. One thing we strongly believe in is getting properly medically evaluated and advocating for your health instead of automatically assuming every symptom is anxiety-related. Hashimoto's is an autoimmune thyroid condition that can sometimes show up in ways many people don't expect — including mental health symptoms. In this episode, Carrie shares her own experience, discusses the root causes and common symptoms of Hashimoto's, and explains the role nutrition, stress, hormones, and lifestyle can play in healing and supporting the body. Carrie Vitt is a Functional Nutritional Therapist at, founder of the wellness site Deliciously Organic, creator of online thyroid and adrenal health courses, and author of the cookbooks Deliciously Organic and The Grain-Free Family Table.
