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.

Can I eat oats, rice, and other grains?
According to the Triad of Autoimmunity, three components are necessary for autoimmunity to develop: a genetic predisposition, environmental triggers, and a leaky gut. This is why grains such as oats and rice are excluded from an autoimmune paleo and a standard paleo diet.
While you don't need to eat grains to get the nutrients that you need, they can be quite tasty. Unfortunately, grains have compounds that can be harsh on the gut, including phytates and lectins, which can make it difficult to heal a leaky gut or can contribute to its development. Today, I’m discussing how grains affect the body and my recommendations for grain consumption while you are on your thyroid healing journey.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- How grains can negatively affect gut health
- The Triad of Autoimmunity
- My approach to grain consumption while restoring my health with Grave’s disease
- Why I don’t recommend eating grains while you are on your thyroid healing journey
- My recommendations for choosing gluten-free grains
As always, I hope you find this episode valuable, and I look forward to catching you in the next episode!
