The thyroid gland is a contentious topic in the medical community. In my practice, I've seen many women with debilitating symptoms dismissed by doctors only interested in checking TSH levels and sending them on their way. Clinicians react from a place of defensiveness, not wanting anyone to question their authority. With the latest research pushing for TSH ranges to be expanded, it seems like the medical field truly under-appreciates the severity of symptoms of hypothyroidism and the massive impact it can have on the quality of life. Today I'm joined by my friend and colleague, McCall McPherson, PA, to discuss the issues many women with thyroid problems experience. She's the creator of Thyroid Nation and an authority on all things thyroid. After suffering from the mismanagement of her hypothyroidism, McCall lives, breathes, and thrives in understanding the nuances of proper thyroid care. In this conversation, we talk about why most medical providers aren't doing enough for thyroid patients, misconceptions about weight loss, everything you need to know about thyroid testing, dietary and supplement recommendations, and more. Despite what you may have been told, none of this is in your head. With the proper guidance, these issues are controllable and fixable.

What we're talking about in this episode! The importance of empowering yourself with knowledge to manage your own care What to do if you feel like your thyroid medication isn't working Why the ‘normal levels’ you hear at the doctor's office are not reliable or accurate Tips to get decent objective measurements of your thyroid hormones  How autoimmunity and slow thyroid degradation are driven by the same root causes   Episode Summary If you are a woman, especially with children, the question is not if you will be touched by a thyroid condition, but when. McCall McPherson PA has become a passionate thyroid expert by way of being a thyroid patient and believes that the commonalities of thyroid issues for women can be healed with the right information.  Proper thyroid care is possible when you know what to look for, and can completely eliminate your thyroid symptoms. Even if your doctor tells you that your panels are within ‘normal’, your body could still be attacking your thyroid without you knowing it.  Learn what exactly to look for in your lab results and what tests to ask for, how to identify the driving factors of hypothyroidism and Hashimoto's and ways to navigate the medical space and advocate for yourself. When you know what to look for, you can pay attention to the small details and get your life back for good.  So many women deal with thyroid symptoms when in reality there is just no need for it. McCall is dedicated to perfecting thyroid treatment and eliminating these unnecessary symptoms for good. Are you ready to get to the source of your thyroid issues by equipping yourself with the knowledge you need? Share what you learned from the thyroid guru McCall McPherson in the comments on the episode page.   Quotes “Many many years later, between my own personal experience and my knack for thyroid and hormones, now thyroid is my jam. Now I am the founder of Modern Thyroid Clinic which now I get to actually give patients their lives back every day, so it’s kind of a cool full circle thing.” (12:30) “The sooner you can tune into your symptoms and tune into what to look out for and how to advocate for yourself, the sooner your symptoms will be solved and your mystery will be solved.” (17:47) “My whole saying in my practice, and even now for Thyroid Nation, is there is no reason to still have thyroid symptoms, and I really believe that there isn't. And that is the goal.” (25:34) “If I can get everyone into all of these labs into these very extremely narrow margins, it's like a light switch comes on, and people get their lives back.” (33:03)   Resources Mentioned Free Thyroid Lab Guide Thyroid Nation Website Modern Thyroid Clinic Website McCall McPherson Website Get the Essential Oil Hormone Solution Here Follow Dr. Mariza’s Virtual Book Club on Facebook | Instagram   Other Resources: The Essential Oils Hormone Solution by Dr. Mariza Check out the full show notes page Keep up with everything Dr. Mariza Follow Dr. Mariza on Facebook | Instagram | Twitter | Youtube

I was recently interviewed by Diana Bowman on Thyroid Nation in a discussion about Hashimoto's disease and hypothyroidism Diana : Hi everybody! Welcome to the third week, episode three, of Thyroid Nation Radio Talk Show Live and Podcast. I'm Diana Bowman, founder of thyroidnation.com. Tiffany: And I'm Tiffany Mladinich [SP] of gratefulgarden.biz. Diana: Also known as Diana and Tiffany, bringing you the voices of thyroid advocates, clinicians, bloggers and thyroid thrivers everywhere. In just a few minutes, we'll be talking live with Dr. Nikolas Hedberg [SP]. I know that, I for one, am really excited. We've had kind of a working relationship, Dr. Hedberg and I, over the last, I don't know, seven or eight months. I have lots of articles of his on my site, which are fabulous. Tiffany, I'm excited. Are you excited? Tiffany: Yes, I am. I, for one, appreciate Dr. Hedberg's thorough and very easy to understand approach in his articles, and love the fact that he was drawn to functional medicine model because it leaves no stone upturned. Which so many of us need because there's so many different reasons, problems, and approaches, that no one should be treated as a lab test or in a cookie cutter kind of way. So really, really just so excited to talk to him. I love the fact that he offers his free Thyroid Ear course through his website, drhedberg.com. So it's amazing and I'm just so excited to talk to him. I truly enjoy reading his articles. They're very easy to understand and it doesn't surprise me at all that he's a regular speaker at integrative medicine conferences, and is also a consultant for other practitioners on very difficult cases. I'm excited to hear from him today. Diana: Yeah, me too. I'm really excited. Tiffany: I know you've got some exciting news, Diana, that you want to share with everyone first. Diana: Yeah. Yeah, absolutely. If you guys tuned in last week, which I hope you did, you know we were talking to the fabulous Isabella Wentz [SP]. If you missed it, though, you can always go back to Blog Talk Radio or the Thyroid Nation Radio page, and scroll down and you can find it there and listen to it, because it was wonderful and she was fabulous. Also, she talked about an anti-inflammatory green smoothie on the show, and I went and I put it back in the notes on the Blog Talk Radio page. So if you feel like it and want to see that, you can log into Blog Talk Radio, find Thyroid Nation, follow us, and in the notes, you'll see the wonderful recipe that I put on there from Isabella. Also, we celebrated our one year anniversary on the 22nd of February, which we never mentioned on the first show, which is why we chose that day, and we gave away great prizes. We had like $1,700 worth of prizes and we drew the names, 42 lucky winners. We're right in the process of collecting their email addresses and their mailing addresses and things. So they should be getting those and hopefully they'll take pictures and send them in. I think that'd be kind of cool to share, don't you? Tiffany: I do. Diana: Yeah? Tiffany: Yeah, I do. I think that's very cool. We also want to thank our amazing Thyroid Nation Radio team of advisors, without whom this show would not be possible. They do so many amazing things behind the scenes that most people don't know, so very, very special thank you to Raina Kranz, Laura Scheunemann, Melissa Phipps, Blythe Clifford, Penny Jensen, Sarah Downing and Marissa Ravelo. You can read about all these amazing women and their thyroid survivor stories on the Thyroid Nation Radio website. Very cool, and thank you so much to all you ladies. Diana: Amen. You really don't realize what goes on behind the scenes and even to put on a show like this, so we're really thankful to have them. Plus, they're there for support. As a thyroid patient, you, me, everybody out there listening, that's what all this is about, and the support they offer. They're so positive.
