Hyperthyroidism and Grave's Disease are autoimmune conditions that affect the thyroid gland, leading to symptoms like weight loss, anxiety, and sleep disturbances. Conventional treatments typically aim to manage symptoms and might involve medications, radioactive iodine therapy, or even surgery. However, these approaches often overlook the root causes of the condition.
In this episode, I am joined by Dr. Eric Ozanski, a chiropractor and functional medicine practitioner with personal experience managing Graves Disease. We discuss the definition, symptoms, and natural approaches to treating hyperthyroidism and autoimmune thyroid conditions, focusing on diet, gut health, and holistic strategies.
In this episode, we talk about:
Definition and symptoms of Graves Disease, including heart palpitations, tremors, and anxiety.
Triggers and causes, including stress, diet, infections, and environmental chemicals.
Dietary recommendations for managing Graves Disease, including the AIP diet.
The importance of gut health and its connection to thyroid function.
Key blood markers for diagnosing hyperthyroidism and Graves Disease.
Conventional and alternative treatment options, including herbal remedies and supplements.
Challenges and timeline for treatment and recovery from hyperthyroidism.
Sleep disturbances related to hyperthyroidism and tips to manage them.
