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.
Save My Thyroid: Healing Tips for Hyperthyroidism and Hashimoto's
Appetite Changes and Thyroid Health
While there are exceptions, it’s very common for people with hyperthyroidism to experience an increase in appetite. When I dealt with Graves’ disease, I had a voracious appetite. On the other hand, those with hypothyroidism and Hashimoto’s tend to experience a reduced appetite.
A number of factors impact appetite regulation and hunger cues, and thyroid health plays a big role. Today, I’m sharing why thyroid hormones matter when it comes to appetite and satiety and why it’s essential to address the underlying causes rather than focus on symptoms.
In this episode, you’ll learn about:
- Leptin's role in satiety and ghrelin's role in stimulating hunger
- Insulin's interaction with brain receptors
- How thyroid hormones influence appetite and mood
- Why chronic inflammation in autoimmune conditions can dampen appetite
- Other common causes of appetite changes
- How addressing nutrient deficiencies can help to normalize appetite
- Strategies for addressing thyroid hormone imbalances
As always, I hope you find this episode valuable, and I look forward to catching you in the next episode!
