Welcome to the Doctor Burg, Healthy Keto and Intermittent Fasting Podcast.

Now, your host, the man taking your health to a whole new level.

So, if you have hypothyroidism, highly recommend that you take caliver oil.

0:19.0

Let's talk about why.

0:21.0

There are three main key nutrients that the thyroid needs.

0:25.0

Number one, it needs iodine.

0:27.0
