If you’ve ever struggled with fatigue, stubborn weight, or feeling “off” despite normal lab results, this conversation is for you.

She explains why standard thyroid tests often miss hidden issues and shares practical strategies you can use to support healthy thyroid function. You’ll also learn how environmental toxins affect your hormones, and why your thyroid, adrenals, and sex hormones are all connected. Through science, personal stories, and clear action steps, this episode offers both clarity and hope for anyone looking to finally get to the root of their metabolic struggles. 🔥 Topics Discussed: Importance of thyroid health in metabolism and overall well-being. Role of the active thyroid hormone T3 in energy production and fat burning. Common issues with standard thyroid testing, particularly the reliance on TSH levels.
