Welcome back to the Lindsay Elmore Show. We are taking a couple of weeks off to celebrate the holiday season and to take some time to rest as well as encourage rest among our colleagues who are so gracious to come in and give their time to be on the podcast. I'm so excited. My guest that we're highlighting today,

I have wanted to interview for a long time. She is a fellow pharmacist who has truly

transformed her own life as well as the lives of so many others by helping them to find and treat the root cause of the number one cause

of hypothyroidism, which is Hashimoto's thyroiditis. She has been a number one New York Times

bestseller. And the thing I love about her is, number one, she's a pharmacist.

I mean, come on, you got to love a fellow pharmacist. Number two, I love how she has taken her

own personal health journey and turned it in to life-changing opportunities for other people to learn more about

themselves, identify the root cause, and truly reverse disease instead of just putting a

band-aid on it. Her newest book that we're talking about today is all about

how stress truly destroys every single function of our body. And we talk about how being a female

on high alert causes not only problems with metabolism and thyroid function,

but it can also lead to adrenal fatigue as well as autoimmune conditions. It throws cortisol

out of balance. And it simply puts us in a state of stress and fight or flight, which can have broad

ranging implications even with our fertility, our digestion, our immunity, you name it.

We're going to talk about how we can go from being these high alert, always on guard females and get out of the body's

traditional responses to stress and danger and instead craft a parasympathetic state that can help not just

one, but every single body system to heal.

This is the Lindsay Elmore Show.
