Like so many working in thyroid health, Jules Chandler's passion to help thyroid patients comes from her own journey from Graves Disease patient to practitioner.

14 years ago Jules was diagnosed with 'hyperactive thyroid', put on medication for 18 months and told they would then 'see what happens'.

This began a long and windy road to thyroid health recovery for Jules.

Along Jules journey, she studied naturopathic nutrition and became known amongst her fellow students as 'the thyroid expert'. She has founded The Thyroid Collective - her thyroid 'army' of practitioners on a mission to help thyroid patients across the UK and beyond.

In our conversation about her thyroid journey we cover topics including:

What lead to her hyper/Graves diagnosis.
Her complicated treatment path - this is a key difference between hypo and hyper thyroid - the treatment is very different.
Anti-thyroid medication.
"Caging' her thyroid (a 'fighty, wiley little devil')
Thyroidectomy.
The path from hyper to very hypo to 'normal' then RELAPSE.
The impact of gluten.
Thyroid eye disease (another Graves' difference).
How to prepare for an endocrinologist appointment
The impact an 'empowered and engaged patient' can make.
The importance of gathering with other thyroid patients from time to time - you are NOT alone.

Thank you Jules for all you do to serve the thyroid population across the globe. You are a thyroid health powerhouse.
