Save My Thyroid: Healing Tips for Hyperthyroidism and Hashimoto's
If you have hyperthyroidism (Graves' disease, toxic multinodular goiter, etc.) or Hashimoto's thyroiditis and are looking to do everything to save your thyroid gland, then the Save My Thyroid podcast is for you! Dr. Eric Osansky DC, IFMCP is the host, as he personally was diagnosed with Graves' disease in 2008 and was able to get into remission taking a natural approach. He created this podcast to help others with hyperthyroidism and Hashimoto's save their thyroid and regain their health. If you have hyperthyroidism then pretty much all of the episodes will benefit you, and if you have Hashimoto's you'll benefit from most of the guest expert episodes, as well as some of the "solo" episodes. The reason there is more of a focus on hyperthyroidism is because all of the other thyroid-related podcasts focus mostly on hypothyroidism/Hashimoto's, and since Dr. Eric personally dealt with Graves' disease he wanted this podcast to focus more on hyperthyroidism, although it will still offer plenty of value to those with hypothyroidism/Hashimoto's. Dr. Eric Osansky lives in Matthews NC with his wife, 2 daughters, 3 cats, 2 dogs, and 3 guinea pigs! He has been a practitioner for 20+ years, and has focused on helping people with thyroid and autoimmune thyroid conditions since 2009.

4 Alternatives to Antithyroid Medication
While many people take antithyroid medications like methimazole and PTU, others prefer a more natural route or simply cannot tolerate those medications.
When I dealt with Graves’ disease, I didn’t take antithyroid medication. Although these alternatives may not be as effective, it was a risk I was willing to take, and it worked for me.
Today I’m sharing the top four alternatives to antithyroid medications, their pros and cons, and key considerations when it comes to dosing.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Why some people choose not to take antithyroid medications
- How bugleweed can help lower thyroid hormone levels and dosage considerations
- What research shows about the benefits of L-carnitine for hyperthyroidism
- LDN’s immune system modulation properties and how it can help with autoimmune thyroid conditions
- How cholestyramine can be used to treat thyroid conditions
- Other alternatives to antithyroid medications including lemon balm and lithium
As always, I hope you find this episode valuable, and I look forward to catching you in the next episode!
