0:00.0	Welcome to the Functional Nutrition Podcast with Aaron Holt, functional nutritionist.
0:09.7	I work with clients on the seacoast of New Hampshire and virtually all over the world through
0:15.2	both private consultations and online nutrition programs.
0:19.1	I'm here with my co-host, Kyle Mayerana, registered dietician of root-down nutrition
0:23.8	based in Asheville, North Carolina.
0:26.2	We are both board-certified, integrative, and functional nutritionists.
0:30.9	This means we dive deep with people to get to the root cause of their health issues.
0:35.9	In this podcast, we will address all things health,

1:34.4	time to do it, especially on the heels of last week's podcast where I interviewed Dr. Jolene
1:39.9	Brighton and she talked all about female hormones, but we also talked about the thyroid
1:45.6	a little bit there. So I'm sure you guys have some follow-up questions and maybe they'll be
1:50.4	covered in today's episode. So the seminar itself was pretty intense. It was solely focused on the
1:57.6	thyroid, but the thyroid dictates just about everything else in the body
2:02.1	from top to tail. Every cell in the body has receptor sites for thyroid hormone, so I mean,
