Ruth is learning, writing, and teaching about thyroid disease in lots of different places, so IHACW is coming along for the ride. Hypothyroidism: the thyroid gland doesn't produce enough of the right hormones to stimulate healthy metabolism—a person has a hard time turning fuel (that's oxygen and food) into energy. The result: lethargy, weight gain, sluggish digestion, and lots, lots more. Does this describe any of your clients? But treating endocrine diseases is a tricky business. In this episode Ruth interviews a friend who had some success, but it is an ongoing battle. Resources: Allen, E. and Fingeret, A. (2025) "Anatomy, Head and Neck, Thyroid," in StatPearls.

*Episode Recorded live at Training. If your thyroid labs keep coming back "normal" but you're exhausted, gaining weight, losing hair, and feeling like you're falling apart... if your doctor keeps checking TSH and telling you everything's fine... if you've been on thyroid medication for years but still feel terrible... this episode is your wake-up call. Dr. Terri sits down with Dr. Cassie Smith, an endocrinologist and hormone specialist, for a game-changing conversation about why the standard approach to thyroid testing is failing millions of people. This isn't your typical thyroid talk - it's the truth about why TSH alone is a useless marker after you start treatment, why 40-60% of Americans are walking around with suboptimal thyroid function, and what your doctor should actually be checking. WHAT YOU'LL DISCOVER: → Why TSH is only a screening tool (and becomes irrelevant once you're on medication) → The shocking truth: nobody's checking your Free T3 - the hormone that actually matters → Why conversion of T4 to T3 breaks down (stress, gut dysbiosis, insulin resistance) → The deiodinase enzymes that 93% of people can't optimize due to metabolic dysfunction → Why higher Free T3 levels = lower cardiovascular mortality and better outcomes → The "normal range" scam: why lab ranges are based on sick Americans, not optimal health → How your gut controls ALL hormone metabolism (thyroid, estrogen, testosterone, cortisol) → Why fixing thyroid without fixing gut health is a Band-Aid approach This isn't about ONE blood test. It's about understanding the whole system. TIMESTAMPS: 0:00 - Intro: Thyroid Awareness Month 1:30 - Why TSH is basically irrelevant 3:00 - What your doctor should be checking (Free T3, Free T4, Reverse T3) 4:15 - The T4 to T3 conversion problem nobody talks about 6:00 - Why 93% of Americans have insulin resistance affecting their thyroid 8:30 - Dr. Cassie's approach: symptoms over lab ranges 10:45 - The 2012 guidelines that haven't been updated (and why that's a problem) 12:20 - When doctors take you off thyroid meds because "labs look good" 15:00 - Higher T3 = lower mortality and better quality of life 17:45 - The gut-thyroid-hormone connection explained 20:30 - Why your gut controls estrogen, testosterone, cortisol, and thyroid 23:15 - Dr. Cassie's book: The Gut-Hormone Connection (releasing April 6th) 26:40 - The microbiome crisis (even in "healthy" people) 29:10 - How gut health affects PCOS, menopause, and fertility ABOUT THE DR.

In this groundbreaking episode of Pushing the Limits, we sit down with Christian Drapeau, MSc - stem cell scientist, author of Cracking the Stem Cell Code, and founder & Chief Science Officer of the regenerative health company Stemregen. Christian shares his 25-plus years of pioneering research into stem cells and regenerative biology, beginning with his revolutionary idea that stem cells are the body's innate repair system, not just a medical oddity studied in labs. What We Discuss in This Episode The History of Stem Cell Science: How Christian's early neurophysiology work led him to explore blue-green algae (Aphanizomenon flos-aquae) and its surprising effects on immune health.  Early hypotheses and lab studies that showed certain natural compounds actually increase circulating stem cells, kick-starting the idea of Endogenous Stem Cell Mobilization (ESCM). The Quest for Natural Stem Cell Mobilisers: Christian's global travels to find powerful plant medicines used in traditional cultures, from Madagascar's Aloe macroclada to sea buckthorn from the Tibetan plateau, and how these botanicals can increase stem cell circulation by as much as 80%. Stemregen Science & Products: We unpack Christian's work validating that increasing your own stem cells in circulation can support tissue repair, healthy aging, and whole-body regeneration, hitting at the heart of why so many chronic conditions persist. What the Stemregen Protocol includes: STEMREGEN Release — designed to support your body's natural release and migration of stem cells.  Stemregen Mobilise — supports stem cell delivery by improving microcirculation and capillary health. Stemregen Signal — enhances cellular communication so stem cells can navigate to where they're needed most. Incredible Cases & Stories: Christian highlights compelling real-world cases showing how enhancing stem cell circulation supports recovery, improved vitality, and quality of life, not by treating symptoms, but by strengthening the body's own repair system. Stem Cell Therapies: Pros & Cons We also dive into conventional stem cell therapies (umbilical, adult stem cells, exosomes), contrasting them with the natural approach Christian advocates, including safety, effectiveness, and longevity implications. Why We Age: A New Perspective Christian previews his upcoming book on aging - reframing aging as a balance between repair vs. regeneration speed, and what practical lifestyle and botanical strategies can help tip the scales towards regeneration.

Have you ever been told your labs are "normal"… but your body feels anything but? Low energy, stubborn weight gain, brain fog, and that frustrating sense that something is just off—yet you keep hearing, "Everything looks fine." In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on a huge missing piece for many midlife women: thyroid health. I'm sharing why "normal" thyroid labs don't always tell the full story—and how an under-supported thyroid can quietly drive hormone imbalance, stalled efforts to lose weight, fatigue, and feeling disconnected from your body. I also walk you through the labs that actually matter, why TSH alone isn't enough (especially in midlife), and how stress, undereating, menopause, and even gut health can affect your thyroid's ability to do its job. You'll hear parts of my own journey, why symptoms are real data, and how to advocate for yourself without feeling dismissed or dramatic. This isn't about trying harder. It's about getting curious, informed, and supported.

If you've ever been dismissed, talked over, or told your hormone symptoms are “just part of aging,” this conversation will change how you think about HRT and hormones.Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) is often presented as a simple solution. But for many women, it can become confusing, frustrating, or even makes them feel worse. This episode breaks down why that happens, what most women are never told about hormones, and why HRT is never just about adding more estrogen or progesterone. We explore how hormone metabolism, gut health, liver detox, thyroid function, genetics, and proper testing all play a critical role in whether HRT actually helps or backfires. I'm joined by my dear friend and mentor, Shauna Gourley, a functional health and human potential coach who guides women through perimenopause and menopause after her own hormone crash and medical gaslighting.Tune in for a clear, honest conversation about HRT and hormones that will help you understand what your body is actually asking for, before you make another health decision.Episode Timeline: 00:00 – Welcome + Hormone Focus01:20 – Why Progesterone Matters03:10 – Progesterone vs Estrogen04:40 – Perimenopause Progesterone Drop06:10 – Menopause Hormone Changes07:50 – Low Progesterone Symptoms10:10 – High Progesterone Symptoms12:00 – Stress Drains Progesterone14:30 – Blood Sugar + Hormones16:20 – Thyroid and Progesterone18:00 – Gut Health and Hormones20:00 – Why Testing Matters22:40 – Progesterone Types Explained25:10 – Bioidentical vs Synthetic28:30 – Is Progesterone Safe?31:00 – Talking to Your Doctor33:40 – Detox Before HRT36:00 – Support Progesterone Naturally39:30 – Final Hormone TakeawaysLinks:Book a Hormone Breakthrough Call - https://calendly.com/briatheperiodwhisperer/private-coaching?month=2025-12 Connect with Bria on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bria_period_whisperer/ Learn more about Bria's coaching program: https://www.briatheperiodwhisperer.com/Coaching Subscribe to The Period Whisperer Podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-period-whisperer-podcast-perimenopause-menopause/id1617315546 Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/5w8w0KbRuDwOUoBMzeFOOO YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@bria_period_whisperer

If you've ever wondered whether your thyroid questions are too specific or if anyone else is dealing with the same confusion this episode is for you.In this Q&A episode, I answer a mix of situational and common thyroid health questions submitted by listeners with Graves', Hashimoto's, and other thyroid conditions. We cover topics like thyroid antibodies, lab interpretation, medication decisions, iodine, fatigue, hair loss, nodules, and lifestyle factors such as fasting and gut health. Some questions are very individual, while others apply broadly and can help you better understand your own labs and symptoms. My goal is to give you context not one-size-fits-all answers, so you can make more informed decisions about your next steps.If you've been asking yourself, “Does this apply to me?” or “Why hasn't this been explained clearly before?”, tune in and see which of these questions helps bring clarity to your own thyroid journey.Episode Timeline: 00:04 – Episode Overview 01:40 – Antibodies and Thyroid Eye Disease03:35 – T3 vs T4 Medications05:45 – Hyperthyroidism vs Graves Disease07:05 – When Thyroid Meds Don't Help09:09 – Fluctuating Hyper and Hypo Labs11:40 – Hyperparathyroidism and Surgery Questions15:55 – Thyroid Ablation: Risk vs Benefit18:32 – What Triggers Graves Disease22:10 – Iodine: Helpful or Harmful?26:10 – Hair Loss and Thyroid Imbalance27:34 – Preventing Postpartum Thyroiditis30:10 – Intermittent Fasting and Thyroid Health33:00 – Gut Testing: Is It Worth It?36:30 – Thyroid Nodules and Treatment Options40:15 – High Cholesterol and Thyroid Issues42:40 – Can You Stop Thyroid Medication?45:10 – Normal TSH, Still SymptomaticTo 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?

What happens when the medical system tells you "there's nothing more we can do" - and you refuse to accept it? In this powerful and deeply personal conversation, I sit down with Dr. Aaron Hartman, family physician turned functional medicine specialist, whose entire medical philosophy changed after his adopted daughter Anna was diagnosed with cerebral palsy and given a hopeless prognosis. Despite being a doctor himself, Aaron watched specialist after specialist offer only medications, surgery, and limitations. But when he and his wife pursued a functional medicine approach - focusing on nutrition, nutrient deficiencies, fatty acids, hormones, and root-cause testing, Anna began to thrive against all odds. In this episode, we explore: The blind spots in the current medical model Why it takes 30 years for research to reach standard care How siloed, symptom-based medicine fails complex patients The power of never giving up, even after devastating diagnoses Why functional medicine focuses on connecting the dots, not chasing symptoms Testing that actually matters: nutrients, fatty acids, organic acids, hormones & more Overtraining, POTS, dysautonomia, hypermobility, and athlete burnout Why recovery, minerals, amino acids, and food-as-medicine are non-negotiable The role of omega-3 and omega-6 balance in inflammation and resilience Dr. Hartman is now the go-to doctor for complex and "uncurable" cases in Central Virginia, helping patients who have fallen through the cracks of conventional care reclaim their health and vitality. We also discuss his new book  UnCurable: From Hopeless Diagnosis to Defying All Odds A moving account of his daughter's story and the transformation of his medical practice. If you've ever been told "this is just how it is",  this conversation will change how you see your body, your health, and what's truly possible. Dr. Hartman's Bio: Dr. Aaron Hartman's functional medicine journey began when traditional healthcare failed Anna, his adopted daughter with cerebral palsy. Despite being a physician, he felt helpless as specialists offered no solutions, only surgery and medications.   Witnessing his daughter's impossible transformation shattered everything Dr. Hartman believed about medicine. This transformed his entire practice of medicine and now he's become the doctor to turn to when all others have given up. He now helps patients reclaim their lives when conventional medicine says "there's nothing more we can do." His new book, "UnCurable: From Hopeless Diagnosis to Defying All Odds," chronicles this transformation. A clinical researcher involved in 70+ studies and VCU Assistant Clinical Professor, he founded Richmond Integrative and Functional Medicine in 2016.

If your thyroid labs are "normal" but you still feel tired, inflamed, puffy, slow, or stuck in a metabolic plateau… this episode is for you. Coach Debbie Potts pulls back the curtain on one of the most overlooked root causes of low thyroid symptoms in midlife: vagus nerve dysfunction. Inside this deep-dive episode, Debbie explains how chronic stress, gut dysbiosis, LPS, H. pylori, low stomach acid, sluggish bile, and mitochondrial dysfunction can block thyroid hormone activation — even if you're taking T3 medication. You'll learn: • How vagus nerve dysfunction suppresses digestion and nutrient absorption • Why low vagal tone reduces T4 → T3 conversion in the liver and gut • How inflammation, LPS, and stress physiology increase Reverse T3 • Why your cells can't "hear" thyroid hormone when mitochondria are under stress • The link between HRV, autonomic balance, and metabolic flexibility • Debbie's personal case study using GI-MAP, MEScreen, HRV tracking, and blood chemistry • How she used Pulsetto Vagus Nerve Stimulation to restore parasympathetic tone If you're doing "all the right things" but still can't lose weight, build muscle, recover well, or feel like yourself… your thyroid may not be the real problem. Your cellular environment might be.

Why does Candida keep coming back after treatment? This week, I'm thrilled to introduce Dr. Michael Biamonte, founder of the Biamonte Center for Clinical Nutrition to answer these questions, and more. Dr. Biamonte has spent three decades dedicating his career to improving lives through stopping Candida overgrowth through functional nutrition and lab testing. Today, we dive into the intricacies of Candida, its connection to thyroid issues, and the science behind his five-phase candida treatment protocol. Dr. Biamonte walks us through the critical relationship between Candida and thyroid issues, elaborating on how it can often be the root cause of many symptoms women struggle with for years before receiving proper care. We discuss the importance of proper sequencing in treatment plans, highlighting why it's beneficial to tackle Candida before addressing heavy metals and other toxins. Dr. Biamonte also reveals why conventional antifungals often fail patients and shares his insights on effective Candida treatments, like rotating antifungals and monitoring progress through innovative urine tests.In addition to tackling Candida, we discuss the role of minerals, especially through Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA), and how it complements understanding and treating Candida overgrowth. Dr. Biamonte also sheds light on maintaining the balance in the gut ecosystem through targeted probiotic use and explains why the Candida diet needs to be low in carbohydrates and sugars. If you or someone you know is struggling with Candida, thyroid issues, or both, this episode offers a wealth of knowledge and hope for effective treatments and better health. Join me as we uncover the science, challenges, and solutions in managing Candida with one of the leading experts in the field. And as always, please share this episode with anyone who could benefit from understanding more about Candida and its impact on overall health.Disclaimer:...

Mood, motivation, and emotional resilience are not personality traits. They are biological systems. In this episode, you'll get the 12 greatest mood boosters on Earth, not as a clickbait supplement list, but as the real biological levers that control dopamine sensitivity, hormones, neuroplasticity, and energy production.Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down in Dubai with friend of the show, Lucas Aoun, founder of Ergogenic Health and INB4, for a deep, experience driven conversation on dopamine, mood, and performance. Lucas is Australia's leading biohacker, now based in Dubai, with a background in exercise science, naturopathy, and pharmacology. He is globally recognized for his work in dopamine regulation, testosterone optimization, and neurohormonal performance, and for rigorously testing protocols before recommending them. Together, Dave and Lucas explore how dopamine receptor upregulation changes motivation, mood, and resilience more effectively than stimulants alone. They break down compounds and systems discussed in the episode including solbutiamine, lithium orotate, sarcosine, inositol, uridine, testosterone, growth hormone, ketamine pathways, thyroid optimization, liver health, sleep quality, and desire regulation. The conversation also examines GLP-1 drugs, why they can blunt motivation, and how to think more strategically about long term mood and energy. This episode connects neuroscience, functional medicine, hormone biology, nootropics, and advanced biohacking ethics into a single framework for improving how you feel and function every day. Dave and Lucas also explain why experimentation requires guardrails, how to avoid tolerance and emotional flattening, and why upgrading baseline biology beats chasing quick fixes. You'll Learn: • Why dopamine sensitivity matters more than dopamine levels • How mood, motivation, and desire are regulated biologically • Which compounds and systems came up as major mood levers • How testosterone and growth hormone influence emotional resilience • Why some longevity drugs may reduce motivation and drive • How sleep depth and mitochondrial function affect mood • The role of neuroplasticity in emotional regulation • Why strategic testing beats random supplementation • How to improve mood without addiction or burnout • Where to start if you want sustainable energy and motivation Dave Asprey is a four time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.

When fatigue lingers, it can be a sign that the body's ability to produce energy isn't functioning the way it should. Could that be what's happening in your case?. In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Scott Sherr to explain why energy dysfunction is so common in chronic illness, and how methylene blue is being used clinically to support mitochondrial function, oxidative stress balance, and detoxification.I also explain why this topic is especially relevant for people with thyroid and autoimmune conditions, based on what I see regularly in practice. We finish by discussing nervous system regulation, GABA support, and why calming the stress response is often necessary before energy can truly improve.If you've been feeling worn down despite “doing all the right things,” this episode will help you think differently about what your body may actually need.Episode Timeline: 00:02 – Episode Introduction01:43 – Dr. Scott's Background06:26 – When Hyperbaric Helps08:59 – Hyperbaric and Chronic Illness12:51 – What Is Methylene Blue13:10 – Why Methylene Blue Helps18:04 – Why Energy Breaks Down19:09 – Detox and Antioxidant Support23:09 – Antimicrobial Effects Explained26:59 – Acute vs Chronic Dosing29:20 – Methylene Blue for UTIs32:04 – Safety and Side Effects37:33 – Thyroid and Autoimmune Support38:55 – Energy Changes in Thyroid Patients41:54 – Who Should Not Use42:16 – Product Quality Differences51:55 – Understanding the GABA System52:41 – GABA, Anxiety, and Sleep59:49 – When GABA Support Helps1:03:06 – Final Thoughts and ResourcesAbout Dr. Scott Sherr: Is a Board-Certified Internal Medicine Physician certified to Practice Health Optimization Medicine (HOMe) and a Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) specialist.

Brain fog that won't lift. Crushing fatigue. Mood changes, anxiety, headaches, or memory slips that make you feel like you're not quite yourself anymore. What if these symptoms aren't random — and aren't “all in your head” — but are signals from your thyroid to your brain?In this eye-opening episode of the Paloma podcast, we dive deep into the powerful and often overlooked connection between hypothyroidism and the central nervous system. Learn how thyroid hormones act like chemical messengers for your brain, why low levels can slow nerve signaling, and how untreated or under-treated hypothyroidism may affect cognition, emotions, and neurological function. We also unpack the science behind symptoms many patients struggle to get validated — from brain fog and depression to migraines and coordination issues — and explain why standard thyroid labs don't always tell the whole story.If you've ever felt dismissed, confused, or frustrated by lingering neurological symptoms, this episode brings clarity, validation, and a path forward. 

This podcast episode is sponsored by AVEO Oncology.  The product information in this podcast is intended only for US residents.  This episode features a real patient and their care partner, highlighting their experiences with a treatment option for advanced kidney cancer.  Please note that the patient's experience is their own and individual results may vary.  This podcast is not intended as medical advice.  Only a doctor can decide what medications may be appropriate for you.  The patient and the caregiver were paid for their time and expenses.        I'm honored to welcome Scott and Katie to the program. Scott's journey began in July 2021, when he started experiencing symptoms that ultimately led to a diagnosis of renal cell carcinoma, resulting in the removal of his right kidney. At first, no additional treatments were needed. But in January 2023, after a biopsy of a lesion in his lung, Scott learned that his cancer had returned as stage IV metastatic renal cell carcinoma.   Today, we're joined by Scott and his wife Katie, who share their journey with renal cell carcinoma – the challenges they've faced, the lessons they've learned, and the support they've discovered along the way. Their story is not only about facing a difficult diagnosis, but also about the strength of partnership, perseverance, and hope.     Through their experience, Scott and Katie remind us that no one has to face kidney cancer alone—there's a community of understanding and shared strength every step of the way. Whether you're a patient, a care partner, or simply someone seeking hope and information, we believe you'll find inspiration and connection in Scott and Katie's story.      Important Safety Information: Before taking FOTIVDA, tell your healthcare provider about all your medical conditions including, if you have high blood pressure, a history of heart failure, a history of blood clots in your veins or arteries (including stroke, heart attack, or change in vision), bleeding problems, thyroid problems, , liver problems, an unhealed wound, if you plan to have surgery or have had recent surgery, or are allergic to FD&C No. 5 (tartrazine) or aspirin. Tell your healthcare provider if you are pregnant or planning to be. FOTIVDA can harm your unborn baby. If you are able to become pregnant: -Your healthcare provider should do a pregnancy test before you start treatment. -Use effective birth control (contraception) during treatment and for 1 month after your last dose. -Talk to your healthcare provider about birth control methods that may be right for you. -Tell your healthcare provider right away if you become pregnant or think you might be pregnant. -Do not breastfeed during treatment and for 1 month after your last dose of FOTIVDA. Tell your healthcare provider about all the medicine you take and any new medicine. Taking FOTIVDA with certain other medicines may affect how FOTIVDA works. FOTIVDA may cause serious side effects, including: High blood pressure (hypertension). High blood pressure may be severe, including a sudden, severe increase in your blood pressure (hypertensive crisis) that can lead to death. You should check your blood pressure regularly and tell your healthcare provider if you have increased blood pressure or experience confusion, headaches, dizziness, chest pain, or shortness of breath. Heart failure. Heart failure may be serious and sometimes lead to death. Your healthcare provider should check for symptoms of heart failure regularly, such as shortness of breath or swelling of your ankles. Heart attack and blood clots in your veins or arteries. Blood clots may be serious and sometimes lead to death. Tell your healthcare provider or get emergency medical help right away if you have, new chest pain or pressure, numbness or weakness on one side of your body, pain in your arms, back, neck or jaw, trouble talking, shortness of breath, sudden severe headache, vision changes, swelling in the arms or legs Bleeding problems.

In this episode of the You Are Not Broken podcast, Dr. Kelly Casperson sits down with Dr. Christine Maren to explore one of the most under-recognized truths about women's bodies: female physiology is exceptionally adaptable—and that adaptability comes with trade-offs. Women's bodies evolved to support reproduction, and that evolutionary priority shaped a physiology that can adjust rapidly to stress, environment, and demand. But that same flexibility can come at a cost, especially in today's world of chronic stress, environmental exposures, and constant pressure. Together, Dr. Casperson and Dr. Maren unpack how this rapid adaptability may contribute to issues like thyroid dysfunction, hormone imbalance, gut disruption, and infertility—and why understanding these patterns is essential for improving women's health care. Why female physiology is uniquely adaptable—and how reproduction shaped that design How rapid physiological adaptation can stress systems like the thyroid The links between chronic stress, hormones, gut health, and fertility How environmental factors interact with women's biology Why adaptability can be both a powerful strength and a vulnerability The importance of recognizing these trade-offs in modern women's health care Women's bodies are not “broken.” They are highly responsive systems doing exactly what they evolved to do—often in environments that no longer support them. Understanding the costs of adaptation is the first step toward more compassionate, effective, and science-based care.

Your vagus nerve is the most underrated driver of your metabolism, hormones, digestion, inflammation, and stress resilience — especially in midlife. And if you've been stuck in "fight or flight" for years (hello, athletes, Type-A performers, and burnt-out high achievers), this episode is the missing link in your healing and fat-loss journey. In this deep-dive episode, Coach Debbie walks you through the real mechanisms behind vagus nerve dysfunction, why so many middle age men and women experience "vagal toxicity," and how suppressed vagal tone shuts down fat-burning, slows thyroid conversion (T4 → T3), increases inflammation, disrupts digestion, and tanks HRV. You'll also hear Debbie's personal case study — connecting her GI-MAP results, MEScreen mitochondrial findings, HRV data, LF/HF ratios, blood chemistry patterns, and real-time tracking using SweetBeat Life to show what chronic sympathetic dominance actually looks like inside the body.

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared launches a new series called Extraordinary Herbs, starting with one of the most widely used—and misunderstood—herbs today: ashwagandha. You'll learn how to use ashwagandha effectively in the real world, why extract type matters, how the most popular forms differ, and what actually determines results for different people. Jared breaks down what modern human research shows, as well as how this herb was traditionally used. Often labeled as the “de-stress herb,” ashwagandha shines as so much more! It supports healthy cortisol signaling, influencing sleep quality, hormone balance, exercise recovery, cognitive function, immune resilience, and thyroid health through the HPA axis. This episode breaks it all down without hype or confusion. Products:Sensoril AshwagandhaVital SleepAnxiety ReleaseMan Up!Man Up!

This is your trusted space to cut through the noise, ditch the overwhelm, and finally feel extraordinary in your body, mind, and life. Are you ready to stop pushing through life and start living it with intention, energy, and ease? Then let's get started. I'm your host, Kellie Lupsha, a high-performance health coach, who is delighted to be your guide to vitality.In this episode, Dr. Heidi and I dive into thyroid health's impact on women's wellness, covering symptoms like fatigue, weight gain, and brain fog, and root causes such as stress, hormonal shifts, and chemical exposure. We highlight the need for comprehensive thyroid testing and natural support strategies prioritizing zinc, selenium, and B vitamins.Key Highlights:➡️ Uncover the sneaky signs of thyroid dysfunction (hint: it's not just fatigue).➡️ Why midlife women are disproportionately impacted—and what's really driving the rise in Hashimoto's.➡️ A shocking link between your morning brew and thyroid antibodies (decaf drinkers, this one's for you!).➡️ What comprehensive thyroid bloodwork should include and why standard tests often miss the mark.➡️ Simple swaps (think nutrients, stress hacks, and electrolytes) to reboot thyroid function naturally.Key Takeaways:“If you don't have something that you're doing in your life to be like de-stressing, coming to yourself, whether it's reading your book for 20 minutes a day, you're grounding, you're walking, you're meditating, you're yoga-ing… that's probably the best place everybody needs to start.” - Kellie Lupsha"80% of autoimmune is women… What are women doing that men aren't? Chemical exposure… makeup, lotions, creams… we all wan to put the lotions on our necks and this is where the thyroid is. And it absorbs all of those chemicals that can cause antibodies.”—Dr. Heidi*TAKE THE FREE ~ DISCOVER YOUR MIDLIFE HEALTH BLUEPRINT*****>>> Click Here

TSH: The Most Misunderstood Thyroid Lab — 25 Questions, Answered If you've been told your TSH is "normal" but you still feel exhausted, foggy, inflamed, or hypothyroid — this episode is for you. In this deep-dive Q&A episode, Dr. Eric Balcavage answers 25 of the most common and misunderstood questions about TSH, the lab marker most often used — and misused — in thyroid care. You'll learn: What TSH actually measures (and what it doesn't) Why TSH can go up in some stress states and down in others How inflammation, stress, sleep, dieting, and medication timing distort TSH Why "normal" TSH doesn't guarantee healthy thyroid function How to tell true hypothyroidism from adaptive physiology Why chasing TSH often keeps people stuck How thyroid medications affect TSH differently (T4 vs T3) Why tissue hypothyroidism can exist even when labs look "fine" This episode is designed for: Patients frustrated by "normal labs" Clinicians who want better thyroid interpretation Anyone trying to understand thyroid physiology beyond numbers

It's now 2026 and if you want to move your thyroid health forward, this episode will help you rethink where to focus.In this episode, I share ten (10) healing priorities for Graves' disease and Hashimoto's to focus on as we settle into the new year. We talk about why stress management and nervous system support remain foundational, how extreme fasting can actually slow progress, and why small, consistent adjustments tend to be more sustainable and more effective than drastic changes.I also address common questions about foods like cruciferous vegetables, explain the role of gut health through my 5R framework, and discuss why vitamin D and omega-3 levels matter. This isn't about doing everything at once. It's about choosing a few priorities and building from there.If you're starting the year looking for a steadier, more realistic approach to thyroid healing, this episode will set you straight in that direction.Episode Timeline:00:03 – Why These Tips Matter in 202601:10 – Take Stress More Seriously05:20 – Support the Nervous System08:55 – Avoid Extreme Fasting11:45 – Go to Bed Earlier13:40 – Reduce Microplastics and Glyphosate16:20 – Eating Broccoli Without Fear18:05 – The 5R Gut Healing Approach20:35 – Optimize Vitamin D and Omega-3s22:45 – Always Support the Immune System24:10 – Work With an Experienced Practitioner25:45 – How to Pace These Changes  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?

If you've ever taken thyroid medication exactly as prescribed… and still struggled with fatigue, weight gain, brain fog, hair loss, anxiety, or feeling "off," you've probably wondered: "Are thyroid meds a scam?" In this episode, Priscilla breaks down this emotionally loaded question with science, clarity, and a dose of tough love. Instead of blaming the medication—or blaming yourself—she exposes the real issue: the conventional thyroid model promises results it was never designed to deliver. You'll learn why so many women feel no different (or worse) on medication, the six biggest "missed pieces" keeping your metabolism stuck, and how to finally create a metabolic environment where your thyroid meds can actually work. This episode is a must-listen if you've ever been told: "Your labs are normal." "Your symptoms aren't related to your thyroid." "There's nothing else you can do." "Just take this pill and come back in six months." Spoiler: your frustration is valid, and you're not crazy. In This Episode, We Cover:

In this powerful throwback episode, we revisit one of the most meaningful and eye-opening conversations I've had on the homestead. I sat down with Dr. Shannyn Pearce to talk about what's really going on underneath the struggles so many women face — thyroid issues, adrenal overload, hormone imbalance, and the subtle warning signs that often go unnoticed. We dig into the everyday symptoms many of us tend to brush off: fatigue, unexplained weight gain, mood swings, inflammation, and food sensitivities. I share parts of my own journey, including how I got off thyroid medication, uncovered hidden food reactions, and learned to listen to my body in a deeper, more intentional way. Dr. Shannyn also explains why individualized lab work matters, how "normal" ranges don't always reflect what's optimal for you, and how adrenal and hormonal shifts can quietly influence your well-being long before bigger issues surface. Most importantly, this episode focuses on real, actionable steps — from managing stress and removing inflammatory foods to supporting the adrenals and giving your body the time and grace it needs to heal. If you've ever felt like you're doing everything "right" yet still don't feel like yourself, this conversation will give you clarity, hope, and a practical path forward.

In this Part 2 of our 2-part podcast series on thyroid emergencies Anton, Dr. George Willis and Dr. Alyssa Louis answer questions such as: When a patient presents with “sepsis without a source,” what bedside features should trigger you to prioritize thyrotoxicosis? How can PoCUS help you decide whether tachycardia is dangerous — or lifesaving — before starting β-blockade? Why can TSH and free T4 be falsely reassuring in a crashing patient, and what labs actually matter early? In which patients does propranolol increase the risk of cardiovascular collapse — and why is esmolol the safer first line medication? Why does the order β-blocker → thionamide → steroid → iodine matter, and what happens if you get it wrong? When is not giving a β-blocker the safest decision in thyroid storm, even in a profoundly tachycardic patient? In an agitated, hyperthermic patient with thyrotoxicosis, why might intubation be more dangerous than helpful in the first hour? How does amiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis fundamentally change your management — and why can iodine make it worse? and many more...

In this episode, Dr. Rebecca and Dr. Nathan pull back the curtain on this special deep dive that was done for the Thyroid Inner Circle community, exploring the often-missing link in thyroid healing: mitochondrial health. They discuss why optimizing thyroid hormones doesn't always translate into better energy, metabolism, or weight loss and how cellular function plays a major role in how the body adapts, heals, and burns fuel. You'll hear a high-level conversation on the connection between T3, mitochondria, inflammation, blood sugar, gut health, toxins, and modern stressors, along with the necessary action steps and things you can start doing today that influence mitochondrial health and long-term metabolic resilience. If you've improved your labs but still don't feel like yourself, this episode helps explain what may be happening beneath the surface—and why true healing goes beyond hormones alone.

How do you know if it's really your cortisol causing symptoms like exhaustion, burnout, low mood, or low libido? How do you know if it's adrenal insufficiency, adrenal dysfunction, or something else entirely? In this episode, I break down exactly how to tell the difference between low cortisol and high cortisol, why symptoms overlap with thyroid issues and other hormone imbalances, and why guessing or treating blindly can actually make things worse. What I Cover in This Episode • The difference between adrenal function vs cortisol output • Why blood, saliva, and urine cortisol tests tell very different stories • Why DUTCH testing shows the full picture of adrenal function and cortisol metabolism • Common low cortisol symptoms, including – Extreme fatigue and burnout – Low motivation and low mood – Feeling "overcast" instead of like yourself – Low libido (even with normal testosterone) – Dizziness when standing, heart racing, weakness – Sleep issues that don't improve with rest • Why these symptoms are often confused with – Thyroid dysfunction – Low testosterone – Low estrogen or DHEA – Neurotransmitter imbalances – Gut issues, blood sugar problems, dehydration, or histamine issues • Why women are often told to "just be less stressed" when their systems are actually running on empty • Why taking the wrong supplement for cortisol can pour gas on the fire • How stress, sleep loss, life changes, and overtraining can stall healing even when you're "doing everything right" Without the right testing, it's like being lost in the woods with the wrong map. DUTCH testing shows us where you are, what systems are struggling, and what needs support first so your body can actually recover. Once we know what your system needs, herbal tinctures can be powerful tools during the healing process, especially for adrenal and nervous system support. Tinctures are not meant to be a forever crutch. They are part of a strategic phase to help calm the stress response, support cortisol regulation, and give your body the resources it needs to stabilize so deeper healing can happen. If you are feeling • Wired but exhausted • Burned out and flat • Emotionally fragile • Unable to recover from stress • Or like your body just won't respond anymore Targeted adrenal and nervous system tinctures can help bridge the gap while you address sleep, nutrition, gut health, and lifestyle foundations. To support you as you move into the New Year, we're offering: 10% off all tinctures + FREE shipping Use code: NEWYEAR Valid Dec 30 - Jan 2 This is a great time to give your nervous system and adrenals some extra support while you work on the bigger picture.

I sit down with Izabella Wentz to unpack why thyroid dysfunction is so often misunderstood, misdiagnosed, and mistreated. We'll explore why most "low thyroid" cases are actually autoimmune in nature, how gut health, liver detoxification, stress, and toxins drive symptoms long before labs turn abnormal, and why so many people feel terrible despite being told their tests are "normal." This conversation is a deep dive into systems-based healing, designed to help you recognize red flags, ask better questions, and understand when self-experimentation ends and professional support becomes essential.   TOPICS DISCUSSED IN THIS EPISODE: Why thyroid hormones affect every cell in the body The difference between Hashimoto's vs labs your doctor calls normal.. when it IS NOT NORMAL. Autoimmunity and the domino effect of chronic disease The link between gut infections, parasites, and thyroid dysfunction The risks and benefits of things like Liver detoxes, the role of toxins, and why you might be so chemically sensitive Vital nutrients for thyroid function The dangers of Gluten and immune cross-reactivity Intestinal permeability (leaky gut) and how it can trash your thyroid Stress, cortisol, and thyroid hormone conversion How to know when it's time for professional help   More from Dr. Izabella Wentz Instagram: @izabellawentzpharmd YouTube: @ThyroidPharmacist Podcast: Thyroid Pharmacist - Healing Conversations Website: thyroidpharmacist.com Contact: https://thyroidpharmacist.com/contact/     Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?

So many people with Hashimoto's carry emotional patterns they don't even realize are affecting their thyroid. Today we take a closer look at the invisible habits we learn early in life, the ones that quietly shape how safe we feel being ourselves.Sometimes you minimize what hurt you. Sometimes you feel responsible for other people's reactions. Sometimes you stop trusting your own knowing, even when your body is nudging you in the right direction. These patterns may seem emotional on the surface, but they create real physiological stress, and your thyroid feels every bit of it.This episode explores why these habits form, how they show up in everyday situations, and why the thyroid is uniquely sensitive to self-expression, boundaries, and inner trust. You will see how simple shifts in awareness can help your body feel safer, calmer, and more supported from the inside out.If you have ever felt like you disappear inside your own life, or like your voice gets quieter when you need it most, this conversation will help you reconnect to yourself in a deeper way. Your thyroid responds to that connection, and you may be surprised how much changes when you begin to honor what you truly feel.Healing is not only biochemical, it  is also emotional, energetic, and rooted in how you relate to yourself every day. For full show notes, please see:https://innatopiler.com/podcasts/thyroid-labs-hashimotos/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 For more information about everything Hashimoto's please visit InnaTopiler.comIf 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/zoomcall

This episode lays out the blueprint for having healthier children later in life by treating preconception as the most important window for human health. You'll learn why fertility is not just about getting pregnant, but about building the biological foundation that shapes a child's brain development, metabolism, immune function, and long term resilience. This conversation reframes infertility as a meaningful signal to pause, repair, and prepare, instead of something to override or rush past. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Dr. Ann Shippy is a board-certified internal medicine physician, certified functional medicine practitioner, and a leading expert in preconception health and fertility optimization. A former IBM chemical engineer, she brings a rare systems-based and data-driven approach to uncovering the root causes of infertility, chronic disease, and hormonal dysfunction. Through her Austin-based medical practice, she has helped men and women restore fertility naturally and conceive healthy children well into their 40s using advanced lab testing, precision supplements, and targeted functional medicine strategies. Together, Dave Asprey and Dr. Shippy explore why childhood illness and infertility are rising at the same time, and how environmental toxins, mold exposure, microbiome imbalances, sleep disruption, and chronic inflammation undermine fertility in both men and women. They discuss the role of mitochondria, circadian rhythms, thyroid health, testosterone, and epigenetics in reproductive health, and why IVF should not be the first step without addressing underlying biological dysfunction. You'll Learn: • Why preconception matters more than pregnancy for long term child health • How sperm and egg quality act as biological time capsules for future generations • Why infertility functions as a warning signal instead of a random failure • How environmental toxins and mold exposure disrupt fertility and mitochondrial health • The connection between fertility, longevity, and overall human performance • Why sleep, circadian rhythm, and stress strongly influence reproductive hormones • The role of thyroid function and testosterone in fertility and metabolism • When IVF makes sense and why it should not bypass foundational health work Thank you to our sponsors!
