About this episode
Your thyroid is key to balancing hormones and losing weight, and it’s also the central hub for many health conditions. In this episode of the podcast, I’m talking to Dr. Amie Hornaman, otherwise known as the Thyroid Fixer. As a thyroid specialist, she is on a mission to help thyroid patients around the world and give them their lives back. While competing in fitness and figure competitions, Dr. Hornaman experienced sudden unexplained weight gain and the frustration of visiting doctor after doctor with no answer as to why her body was rebelling against her. It wasn’t until she found an integrative practitioner who gave her the right thyroid tests that she finally got a diagnosis and was able to treat her hypothyroidism. Join us as we dive deep into the symptoms of hypothyroidism that you need to be on the lookout for, the lab tests needed to diagnose it, and the medications to treat it. Plus, we’ll explore many of the lifestyle changes you can make to take care of your thyroid function and support your metabolism. Stay tuned until the end of the episode where Dr. Hornaman has a quiz to help you determine if your thyroid could be at the root of your symptoms.
