Thyroid Disease and Autoimmunity with Dr. Amy Myers

In today’s interview, we’re discussing Thyroid Disease. It can be one of the major causes of skin problems such as dry skin but also impacts the body in a number of ways including your weight, energy level, sleep, mood and more!

My guest today is Dr. Amy Myers. She is a renowned leader in Functional Medicine and New York Times Bestselling author of The Autoimmune Solution and The Thyroid Connection. She received her Doctorate in Medicine from LSU Health Sciences Center and spent 5 years working in emergency medicine before training with the Institute for Functional Medicine. She has helped thousands around the world recover from chronic illness through her dietary-based program, The Myers Way®. Her blog and website serve as a beacon of hope to the many sufferers of thyroid disease and autoimmune conditions.

On today’s podcast, we discuss how to know if you have thyroid disease, labs and specific lab numbers that your doctor may not have told you about, and her approach to addressing the root cause of thyroid disease. I ask her if it’s possible to cure thyroid disease and I think you’ll be surprised to hear her answer (hint: it’s not a one word answer).

I also present a question from one of you, and I think you’ll find her answer interesting.
