Are you curious about how to optimize your thyroid health naturally? Join me as I sit down with the esteemed Dr. Alan Christianson, a naturopathic endocrinologist and New York Times bestselling author, to uncover the secrets of maintaining a healthy thyroid. In this episode, you'll gain insights into the critical role of thyroid hormones and the delicate balance needed for their proper function. Drawing from my personal journey of living without a thyroid gland since 2011 due to thyroid cancer, we underscore the importance of personalized health decisions and critical analysis.
Discover the importance of thorough thyroid testing beyond just TSH levels, and learn how to get the right testing for conditions like Hashimoto's and Graves' disease with comprehensive tests for T3, T4, and thyroid antibodies. We delve into the thyroid's unique sensitivity to environmental toxins and the impacts of halides like chlorine and fluoride. We also touch on the intricate relationship between circadian rhythms, stress, and hormonal changes, and their effects on thyroid function.
Whether managing a thyroid condition or seeking to understand more about your hormonal health, this episode is packed with valuable information to help you navigate your wellness journey.
