Episode 14

From Hashimoto’s disease to a healthy thyroid I can promise you this…

Your thyroid gland isn’t a problem organ to be removed, it is your body’s most sensitive messenger! When the thyroid gland is creating symptoms in the body, it is time to listen!

Tap water tonics, traumas stored in my throat chakra, nutrient deficiencies fed by college food, Epstein Barr Virus running a muck, and a TPO lab value so high it didn't even register on the test, I had full-blown Hashimoto’s with your classic moon face (myxedema) and fatigue so intense I could nap at the drop of a hat.

Flashback to nursing school at 22 years old when I was certainly struggling with my thyroid, but because Western medicine told me I was fine, I believed it. I remember vividly sitting in pathophysiology class as our professor read from a blue and yellow slide that said the words “Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis”.

I read a little further about the condition.. describing symptoms of fatigue, depression, body pain, weight gain, thinning hair, and little hope for life. “Wow, that would sure suck to have” I thought.

Little did I know that exact condition was what was brewing inside of my body. When I went to get my symptoms checked out, my endocrinologist suggested we remove my thyroid and medicate me. I ran out of that office never going back, not because I knew there was a better way, but..

today I am going to teach you that way!
