Hidden Hunger: The Importance of Micronutrients: Nutritionist Leyla Muedin focuses on the critical role of micronutrients—vitamins and minerals—in overall health. Leyla highlights the global issue of 'hidden hunger,' a deficiency in essential micronutrients that silently affects billions worldwide. She explains the impact of this deficit on immune function, growth, energy metabolism, and chronic disease prevention. The discussion includes key micronutrients like vitamins A, C, D, E, B complex, iron, zinc, iodine, and selenium, and their sources. Leyla underscores the need for dietary diversity, fortification, targeted supplementation, and nutritional awareness to combat this pervasive issue. She also advises on recognizing symptoms of deficiencies and the importance of individualized nutrition plans guided by healthcare professionals.

The thyroid helps keep the body working at the right speed — but what happens if yours isn't functioning well? Many people know that fatigue is a symptom of a dysfunctional thyroid, but it can affect a wide variety of functions in addition to that because thyroid hormone is involved in nearly all aspects of how our bodies function.   If there are issues with it — which there are for an estimated one in seven people, many of whom are unaware of it — it can hinder your ability to live a healthy and active lifestyle in a myriad of ways.   In this episode, Jim LaValle, RPh, CCN, dives into this topic, explaining why thyroid health is vital for staying active and energized.   This episode of Life Time Talks is part of our series on Performance and Longevity with MIORA.   Find the episode highlights, get related resources and view the transcript for this episode at https://experiencelife.lifetime.life/podcast/why-thyroid-health-matters-for-an-active-life-performance-longevity-series   Have thoughts you'd like to share or topic ideas for future episodes?

What if the inflammation driving your fatigue, weight gain, and brain fog isn't just “in your head”—but a hidden process called metainflammation? In this episode, we uncover how chronic, low-grade inflammation can fuel Hashimoto's and hypothyroidism, quietly disrupting your metabolism, immune system, and thyroid function.You'll learn why factors like stress, poor sleep, ultra-processed foods, blood sugar swings, and environmental toxins can keep your immune system stuck in overdrive—and how that persistent inflammatory state may worsen autoimmune thyroid damage and symptoms.If you've been told your labs look “normal” but you still feel exhausted and inflamed, this conversation connects the dots. 

Send a textIf your gut isn't healthy, nothing else works the way it should—your hormones, metabolism, mood, or immune system included.In this episode, Kristin and Gina break down gut health from the ground up, helping you understand why digestion is the control center of the body—and why healing the gut often unlocks progress everywhere else.

Thyroid issues can feel confusing — especially when you're told your TSH is “off,” you have antibodies, or you're prescribed medication without fully understanding what's going on. The Lanby's Dr. Stephanie Wallman, Medical Director, breaks down what thyroid dysfunction actually means, how to interpret your labs, and how to support your thyroid with a root-cause, whole-body approach.On this “One Take on One Take” episode:Tip 1: Understand what your TSH, Free T3, Free T4, and thyroid antibodies really mean — and why TSH alone doesn't tell the full story.Tip 2: Learn how gluten, iodine imbalance, stress, and toxin exposure can trigger or worsen thyroid dysfunction and autoimmune thyroid conditions.Tip 3: Know when lifestyle, nutrition, and stress optimization are enough — and when thyroid medication like Synthroid may be appropriate as part of comprehensive care.Subscribe to Get Well Better by The Lanby: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/get-well-better Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/get-well-better YouTube: @TheLanby Or search “Get Well Better by The Lanby” on your favorite podcast platform!VISIT THE LANBY: Explore membership and learn more about The Lanby's functional medicine approach:https://www.thelanby.comFOLLOW THE LANBY ON SOCIAL: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thelanby Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thelanby LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/thelanbySTAY IN THE KNOW: Subscribe to The Lanby newsletter for health tips, podcast drops, and expert insights: https://www.thelanby.com/newsletter

If you're preparing for IVF or struggling with fertility, your thyroid health may be a crucial — and often overlooked — part of the picture.In this episode, we take a deep dive into the connection between thyroid function and IVF outcomes. Thyroid hormones play a key role in reproductive health, influencing everything from ovulation and egg development to embryo implantation and early pregnancy. Even mild or “subclinical” thyroid imbalances can affect fertility — especially for people with hypothyroidism or autoimmune thyroid conditions like Hashimoto's.We explore why thyroid issues are more common among people pursuing IVF, how thyroid antibodies may impact implantation and miscarriage risk, and why standard fertility testing doesn't always tell the whole story. You'll learn which thyroid labs matter most before starting IVF, how thyroid hormone needs can change during stimulation and pregnancy, and why close monitoring is so important throughout the process.Most importantly, this episode is about empowerment. Whether you're just beginning fertility treatment or already in the middle of IVF, understanding your thyroid health can help you ask better questions, advocate for appropriate testing, and work with your care team to optimize your chances of success. 

 Is your thyroid health determined by more than just your food choices and lifestyle?In this episode, I speak with Justin Harris, a certified functional genomics practitioner, who explains how understanding your genetic blueprint can unlock personalized strategies for managing thyroid health. We dive into how genetics influences key factors like oxidative stress, detox pathways, and autoimmune conditions such as Hashimoto's and Graves' disease. Justin also shares how genetic testing can offer insights into your body's unique response to food, exercise, and environmental factors. By understanding your genetic makeup, you can make more informed decisions about nutrition, supplements, and lifestyle changes. We also touch on the role of epigenetics in how your genes express themselves and how modifying your lifestyle can improve thyroid function and overall health.Tune in to find out how your genes could be the missing piece.Episode Timeline:00:00 – Episode Preview01:50 – Podcast Intro01:50 – Justin's background story05:58 – Can genes be changed?09:34 – Key thyroid-related genes10:32 – Oxidative stress explained13:26 – Measuring oxidative stress15:52 – Estrogen metabolism genes18:53 – Understanding methylation20:48 – Gut health and genes23:23 – Caffeine metabolism genetics25:50 – Weight loss gene factors30:19 – Histamine and genetics31:36 – Bone and vitamin D genes34:57 – Vitamin D dosing risks38:21 – Who should test genetics40:33 – Final thoughts on healing41:52 – Where to find Justin42:53 – Post-Episode ReflectionsAbout Justin Harris: is a certified Functional genomics practitioner, Functional diagnostic nutrition practitioner, primal health coach, and nutritionist.

In this episode, Brent speaks with Dr. Anne Cappola, a leading endocrinologist at the University of Pennsylvania, about thyroid health. Using both clinical insight and Brent's personal experience as a parent, they break down what the thyroid does, how hypo- and hyperthyroidism show up in real life, how these conditions are diagnosed, and what treatment actually looks like. The discussion covers common symptoms, when testing matters, why TSH is the key marker, and how thyroid health fits into aging, longevity, and everyday wellbeing. Hope you enjoy.

Have you been told that your thyroid — or hypothyroidism — is the reason you're dealing with fatigue, brain fog, weight gain, dry skin, constipation, bloating, or digestive issues that seem to keep piling up?Have you started thyroid medication or supplements, only to feel maybe a little better… but still not like yourself?Or maybe your doctor is telling you that your labs are “normal,” but you're still suspicious thyroid might have something to do with it — and you want to know how you can support your thyroid safely to boost your energy, digestion, and metabolism? If any of that sounds familiar, then this episode is for you. Today we're continuing the Real Root Cause Series, where I'm taking conditions that are commonly labeled as root causes — and breaking down to you what their REAL root causes are. This is super powerful because understanding a fake vs. real root cause is the difference between healing from your symptoms... or not. Today's topic is: thyroid health — specifically hypothyroidism. This episode might ruffle some feathers, because I'm going to make the case that hypothyroidism itself is not a true root cause. That doesn't mean your symptoms aren't real. And it definitely doesn't mean your labs don't matter. But it doesmean that something else is driving why your thyroid hormones aren't working the way they should. In this episode, I'm walking you through:Why thyroid medication alone often doesn't fully resolve symptomsHow you can have “normal” labs and still have hypothyroid symptomsHow thyroid hormones are actually made, converted, and used in the bodyWhat this has to do with finding (and testing for) the real root causes to thyroid imbalanceWhat gut health has to do with thyroid healthAnd what needs to be addressed underneath your thyroid for your symptoms to truly improve If you're ready to understand your thyroid better than you ever have, plus have the tools you need to support your thyroid (and whole body health) beyond medication - then this episode is for you.

283: UFC World Champion, mother and nutrition activist Miesha Tate is here to talk about what women actually need when it comes to food, strength, and recovery. We break down why calories in vs. calories out doesn't always work for women, how hormones completely change the nutrition conversation, and why nutrient density matters more than restriction. Miesha shares her journey in a male-dominated sport, how she rebuilt her health and performance after having kids, and what she's learned about food as fuel, and how to raise healthy kids in an unhealthy world.  Topics Discussed: → Is calories in vs. calories out the best framework for women's nutrition? → How should women eat differently than men for strength, hormones, and longevity? → What does eating nutrient-dense food do for performance and recovery? → How does Miesha use red light therapy and HBOT to improve recovery?  → How can moms rebuild strength, metabolism, and bone density after having kids?

Guest: Dr. Hannah Lawler, Naturopathic Doctor (ND)Core Theme: Moving beyond the "pill for every ill" mentality to embrace nutrition (The Bean Protocol™), individualized hormone support, and the powerful signaling of the female cycle.Key Takeaways & Highlights1. The Luteal Phase "Truth Serum"Uni and Hannah discuss the emotional intensity often dismissed as "just PMS."The Luteal Narrative: The luteal phase (the week before your period) acts as a "BS filter." While it can feel like "lunacy," it often highlights real issues in life or relationships that we suppress during the rest of the month.Actionable Advice: Don't make life-altering decisions (like divorce) during this phase, but document the feelings. Use them as data points to address once your hormones settle.2. Naturopathic vs. Conventional MedicineDr. Lawler clarifies the rigorous path of an ND:Training: Four years of medical school, including biochemistry, anatomy, and pharmaceuticals, plus extensive training in nutrition, homeopathy, and hydrotherapy.The "Village Doctor" Approach: Hannah operates a concierge practice, making house calls. This allows her to see a patient's environment—poking around the pantry to see what they think is healthy versus what actually supports their biology.3. The Foundation of Nutrition: The Bean ProtocolBoth Unique and Hannah emphasize that nutrition is not a "fad" but the literal building blocks of cells.Soluble Fiber (Beans & Psyllium): Essential for clearing recycled estrogen and toxins from the liver. This is the "insurance policy" for anyone on Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT).Personal Responsibility: You cannot drive a "Ferrari" (your body) and put in the cheapest fuel. High-performance health requires high-quality, consistent inputs.4. Advanced Optimizations: Peptides & GeneticsWhen the foundation of nutrition is set, Dr. Lawler looks at "levers" to move the needle:Peptides: Signaling molecules that tell cells to perform specific tasks (e.g., recovery, skin health, or mood). Hannah highlights GHK-Cu (copper peptide) for anti-aging and Thymosin Beta-4 for recovery.Genetics (3x4 Genetics): Understanding "bottlenecks," such as the COMT gene, which affects how you process caffeine and adrenaline. Knowing your genetics removes the "DIY" guesswork from health.5. Thyroid Health & The "Canary in the Coal Mine"The discussion touches on why Hashimoto's is so prevalent today:Environmental Toxins: Halogens like fluoride, chlorine, and bromine can "plug" iodine receptors in the thyroid, leading to dysfunction.Root Cause: It's never "just" the thyroid; it's a response to stress, viruses, or environmental toxicity (like mold).

In this eye-opening episode of Paloma Health's podcast, we dive into the powerful — and often overlooked — role of gut dysbiosis and how an imbalanced microbiome can disrupt your thyroid, hormones, and weight. If you're living with hypothyroidism or Hashimoto's and struggling with bloating, fatigue, inflammation, stubborn weight gain, or worsening hormone symptoms, dysbiosis may be a hidden driver behind how you feel.We unpack the science of the thyroid-gut axis, explaining how gut dysbiosis can interfere with thyroid hormone absorption and conversion, increase intestinal permeability, and fuel chronic inflammation — all of which may worsen autoimmune thyroid conditions. You'll learn why gastrointestinal symptoms are so common in thyroid patients, yet often overlooked in conventional treatment plans.This episode also explores the estrobolome, the collection of gut bacteria responsible for regulating estrogen metabolism. When dysbiosis is present, estrogen clearance can be impaired — a problem that becomes especially impactful during perimenopause and menopause, when hormonal balance is already shifting. The result? Increased symptoms, metabolic slowdown, and added resistance to weight loss.We connect the dots between dysbiosis, gut microbiota diversity, Hashimoto's, hypothyroidism, menopause, and weight regulation, showing how gut imbalances can ripple through multiple systems at once. Most importantly, we share clinician-informed, practical strategies to begin restoring gut balance in ways that support your thyroid — without extreme elimination diets or generic supplement advice.

There's a point where labs, diet, and protocols stop explaining why symptoms linger and that's where this episode begins.Healing doesn't always stall because the body lacks the right nutrients or protocol. Sometimes it's because the brain and nervous system are still holding unresolved trauma. Dr. Louise Swartswalter explains how neurobiofeedback and trauma release work can influence regulation, resilience, and the body's ability to heal. So If you're open to exploring how brain health and trauma resolution might fit into a root-cause thyroid healing approach, this episode will give you a thoughtful place to start.

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared welcomes functional medicine dietitian and gut-health expert Lisa Smith for a deep dive into one of the most overlooked systems influencing hormone balance: the estrobolome. If you've never heard that word before, you're not alone — but by the end of this conversation you'll understand why the estrobolome may be the missing link in stubborn hormone symptoms, estrogen dominance, thyroid sluggishness, mood changes, and even men's testosterone challenges. Jared and Lisa break down how gut bacteria influence estrogen detoxification, what beta-glucuronidase is actually doing behind the scenes, why bile flow matters (especially if you don't have a gallbladder), and how fiber, cruciferous vegetables, and targeted nutrients can support healthy hormone metabolism. This is a practical, empowering discussion designed to help you understand root causes rather than chase symptoms. Whether you're navigating perimenopause, PCOS, thyroid issues, mood swings, stubborn weight, or low energy, this episode brings science down to earth with simple, realistic starting points for rebuilding gut balance and restoring hormonal resiliency — naturally and safely.Products:Precision ProbioticLiverVitality EndoCleanseAdditional Information:Pretty Well PodcastInstagramLisa Smith WellnessVisit the podcast website here: VitalityRadio.comYou can follow @vitalitynutritionbountiful and @vitalityradio on Instagram, or Vitality Radio and Vitality Nutrition on Facebook.

In this episode of The Provider Series, Christian Davis, NP, from our Charlottesville office, returns to discuss one of the most misunderstood chapters in women's health: postpartum. She explains how pregnancy elevates hormones to their peak, why estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone rapidly drop after delivery, and how this sudden shift contributes to fatigue, mood changes, anxiety, hair loss, sleep disruption, and low libido. Christian also highlights postpartum thyroid dysfunction, prolactin's impact on dopamine, the importance of nutrition, and why rest and community support are essential for recovery. Together, they break down what happens in the first 48 hours postpartum, how hormonal changes influence mood and bonding, why thyroid health affects milk supply and overall healing, and how preexisting hormone issues shape the postpartum experience. She also shares what postpartum care should look like (and why many women aren't receiving it.) Whether you're postpartum, preparing for pregnancy, or supporting someone you love, this episode offers clarity, compassion, and science-backed insight into what the body is truly going through.

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared opens part one of a powerful new series on what he calls the hidden epidemic—the widespread and silent impact of endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) on hormones, brain chemistry, metabolism, and long-term health. After more than a year and a half of deep research, Jared and his wife Jen have uncovered how these chemicals mimic hormones, block receptors, interfere with detox pathways, disrupt neurotransmitters, and contribute to challenges like fatigue, low motivation, stubborn weight gain, PMS, anxiety, sleep struggles, and declining testosterone in both men and women.This episode explains why the endocrine system is struggling more than ever, how EDCs create thyroid chaos, hormonal imbalance, and neurochemical disruption, and what steps you can begin taking right now to start clearing these compounds from your environment and your body. If you've been dealing with symptoms that “don't match” your lab work, if you've struggled to feel balanced despite doing the right things, or if you've suspected environmental chemicals may be affecting you or your family, make sure to listen to Part 2 and stay tuned for future episodes.

What if the symptoms you've been dismissing for years are actually your body's SOS signal?In this episode, I sit down with Anna Pinnock, a registered nutritional therapist who helps people heal autoimmune diseases, thyroid conditions, and chronic health issues by getting to the root cause. Anna's own healing journey began with a Hashimoto's diagnosis in her early twenties—followed by years of fatigue, bloating, hair loss, and doctors telling her “everything looks normal.”Her story is one of deep self-discovery, functional nutrition, trauma healing, and the realization that food, stress, and the nervous system play a far bigger role in autoimmune conditions than most of us realize.We explore how stress suppresses thyroid function, how gut inflammation drives autoimmune flares, why complex carbohydrates triggered years of unresolved symptoms, and how changing her diet transformed her life—and eventually guided her into the world of nutritional therapy.Listen to the full episode to learn how to support your thyroid, heal your gut, and take back control of your energy and health.Topics Covered:Anna's 15-year journey with Hashimoto's diseaseWhy so many thyroid symptoms get dismissed as “normal”How stress and trauma suppress thyroid functionThe link between cortisol, metabolism, and chronic fatigueThe Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD): how it works and who it helpsGut inflammation, malabsorption, and persistent bloatingWhy dietary healing must be paired with stress regulationHow to reintroduce foods after an elimination protocolWhy one-size-fits-all diets don't workFunctional testing and the power of individualized nutritionBecoming open-minded in healing and alternative modalitiesThe 4 pillars everyone with autoimmunity must addressListen to more episodes at www.makepeacewithfood.com/podcast or subscribe to me on Spotify, Podcast, and YouTube so you never miss an episode!Join my Facebook Community here: www.myfoodfreedomlifestyle.comWork with me: www.sherryshaban.com/transformWant to go deeper?

In this episode, Dr. Jockers sits down with guest Dr. Justin Marchegiani to dive into how thyroid hormones control your metabolism, energy, and overall health. Discover why symptoms like fatigue, hair thinning, or cold hands could signal underlying thyroid issues. We break down TSH, T4, and T3, and explain why conventional testing often misses the full story.   In this episode, learn the key drivers of thyroid dysfunction, including insulin resistance, chronic stress, and inflammation. Explore how your gut and liver influence hormone activation and why common nutrient deficiencies can silently impair thyroid function.   In this episode, get actionable strategies to support your thyroid naturally. From optimizing nutrient intake and stabilizing blood sugar to reducing environmental toxins, sleep and stress management are highlighted as essential components for better thyroid health.
