“Your detox is only as good as your drainage.” - Kelly KennedyThe body is designed to deal with environmental attacks from things like bacteria, mold, and viruses. The problem is that all the exposures from modern-day life damage these systems and prevent them from working efficiently.To deal with this, many practitioners emphasize detoxifying the liver. Unfortunately, the detox techniques will not work as intended without good drainage via the lymphatic system. The good news is once you start moving the lymph, your detox efforts will improve, and your body will move differently.Today, I’m super excited to have a comprehensive discussion with Kelly Kennedy about the lymphatic system. This is the first time I've covered this topic in this much detail, and it was a fascinating conversation. Kelly’s mission is to teach you how your body works and help you recognize that you have the best physician and pharmacist inside you. You just need to learn how to support yourself.In this conversation, Kelly and I talk about the importance of the lymphatic system for overall health, how she became the Lymph Queen, her journey from skepticism to belief in the power of energy healing, the need for lymphatic stimulation to detoxify the body, techniques to achieve this, and more.

Many people associate low thyroid hormone levels with low energy levels.When I dealt with Graves’ Disease over ten years ago, I didn’t experience fatigue. If anything, my energy levels were maybe a little bit high. On the surface, it seems logical that if someone has hyperthyroidism, they have an increased metabolism and more energy. Still, in truth, a lot of people with hyperthyroidism have low energy levels for various reasons. Today, I’m sharing the most common reasons people with high thyroid hormone levels can experience fatigue. In this episode, you’ll learn about:- #1: Anti-thyroid medication- #2: Mitochondrial dysfunction- #3: Adrenal imbalances- #4: Insufficient sleep- #5: Nutrient deficiencies- #6: Stealth infections- #7: Toxic moldAs always, I hope you find this episode valuable, and I look forward to catching you in the next episode!To learn more, visit the show notes at https://savemythyroid.com/podcast/common-causes-of-fatigue-in-hyperthyroidism/.To take the Save My Thyroid Quiz visit www.savemythyroid.com/quiz Free resources for your thyroid health Get your FREE Thyroid and Immune Health Restoration Action Points Checklist at SaveMyThyroidChecklist.com High-Quality Nutritional Supplements For Hyperthyroidism and Hashimoto’ sHave you checked out my new ThyroSave supplement line?

There are four major players in the endocrine system: thyroid hormones, adrenal hormones, sex hormones, and blood sugar metabolism. The first three are in a delicate balance where any movement in one affects the other, which is why many patients with thyroid issues are also experiencing adrenal problems.Years ago, when I dealt with Graves’ disease, I knew stress could be a factor, but I assumed it wasn’t an issue for me. I felt I was good at handling the stress, so I was confident my adrenals would be fine. After doing testing, I realized that feeling like you’re managing the stress isn’t a sure sign that your adrenals are optimized.Today, I’m excited to be joined by Naturopathic Doctor, speaker, author, and podcast host Dr. Erin Kinney. Dr. Kinney helps stressed-out patients improve their mood, balance their hormones, and increase their energy. She is incredibly passionate about teaching her patients to understand WHY stress causes so many problems in the body and HOW they can change their response to stress to regain control of their bodies and lives.In this conversation, Dr. Kinney and I discuss her health journey and expertise in managing stress and adrenal health, the physiological process of our stress responses, the role of cortisol, the impact of chronic stress, testing for adrenal health, the connection between adrenal and thyroid problems, and the importance of diet, exercise, and stress management, and more.

Botox injections use a toxin called botulinum toxin to stop the release of acetylcholine and prevent muscles from contracting. Botox injections are commonly used to smooth wrinkles on the face but can also help treat neck spasms, overactive bladder, lazy eye, and other health conditions.During my interview with Inna Topiler about the causes of thyroid autoimmunity, she mentioned Botox injections as an uncommon cause. Following that, I dove into the research and found some interesting studies, primarily related to thyroid eye disease.In this episode, you’ll learn what research shows about:- The potential pathogenic link between Botox and autoimmune thyroid diseases- How Botox may be able to help with thyroid eye disease- Thyroid eye disease presenting after cosmetic Botox injections- The use of Botox in the treatment of upper eyelid retraction due to thyroid eye diseaseAs always, I hope you find this episode valuable, and I look forward to catching you in the next episode!To learn more, visit the show notes at https://savemythyroid.com/podcast/can-botox-trigger-thyroid-autoimmunity/.To take the Save My Thyroid Quiz visit www.savemythyroid.com/quiz Free resources for your thyroid health Get your FREE Thyroid and Immune Health Restoration Action Points Checklist at SaveMyThyroidChecklist.com High-Quality Nutritional Supplements For Hyperthyroidism and Hashimoto’ sHave you checked out my new ThyroSave supplement line?

“Breathing is the most important thing we do that nobody taught us or trained us to do.” - Dr. Sachin PatelBreathing plays a vital role in so many areas and aspects of our lives. More than just delivering oxygen to our mitochondria, correct breathing promotes healthy circulation, lymphatic flow, a healthy nervous system, and so much more.Despite the profound effect that breathing has on our physiology, most of us pay little to no attention to it. The most profound shifts occur based on how we breathe for 99% of the day, so the most challenging work we need to do is raise our consciousness and constantly bring awareness to our breath.Today, I’m joined by functional medicine practitioner Dr. Sachin Patel to talk about breathwork and its many benefits for your overall health. Dr. Sachin is convinced that “the doctor of the future is the patient” and has committed to helping others raise their consciousness, activate their inner doctor, and initiate their deepest healing through lifestyle and breathwork. Sachin founded The Living Proof Institute, pioneering a revolutionary approach to patient-centered healthcare.In this conversation, Dr. Sachin and I discuss how we can start to develop our breath consciousness, the adverse effects of mouth breathing, how to use mouth tape to ensure nasal breathing, the impact of breathwork on energy levels, resources for improving your breathing, and more.

While you’re on your thyroid healing journey, there are several blood markers you’ll need to monitor. Unfortunately, there are common mistakes that providers and patients make that can impact these tests, potentially producing misleading results.Today, I’m sharing the four mistakes I see most often, which are relevant whether you have hyperthyroidism or Hashimoto’s. I’m talking about the importance of testing more than just TSH and T4 levels, why you shouldn’t take biotin or exercise intensely before a blood draw, the need for regular monitoring of thyroid antibodies, how you can get the tests you need, and more.Convincing doctors to order these tests can be challenging, but don't be disheartened.

“Eating organic is fundamental to living a healthy life.” - Jeffrey SmithThe conversation around genetically modified organisms (GMOs) and glyphosate is about much more than our food. It’s about preventing diseases from developing, caring for our environment, protecting nature for future generations, and more. Unfortunately, a lot of people still don’t take it seriously enough.Today, I’m joined by Jeffrey Smith to talk about the risks associated with GMOs and glyphosate, particularly their impact on thyroid and autoimmune conditions. As a global thought leader on the health dangers of GMOs for over 27 years, Jeffrey Smith has authored two bestsellers, directed five documentaries, delivered 2,000 lectures and interviews in 45 countries, trained 1,500 speakers, and organized more than 10,000 grassroots advocates. Jeffrey has counseled world leaders on six continents, and his meticulous research presented at medical conferences inspired thousands to prescribe non-GMO and organic diets. The success of the GMO education movement he pioneered is measured in part by the 48% of world consumers who acknowledge GMOs are unhealthy.In this conversation, Jeffrey and I discuss the growing evidence linking these substances to various diseases, the dangers of new genetic engineering techniques, why eating organic is essential, the unpredictability of gene editing, how we can empower ourselves and support the important cause of protecting nature, and more.
