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.

Most People Have These Toxins and Don’t Know It with with Dr. Tom O'Bryan
Behind many chronic symptoms is one unseen disruptor: your toxic load.
You’ve cleaned up your diet, run the basic labs, maybe even tried supplements,... so why do symptoms like brain fog, fatigue, or hormonal shifts keep lingering? In this conversation, we zoom in on what standard care often misses: the toxins building up in your body and their effects on your gut, brain, and immune system long before a diagnosis ever appears.
Our guest, Dr. Tom O’Bryan, explains why autoimmunity and cognitive decline don’t start overnight and the early patterns for detection He also encourages how specialized tests like the Total Toxin Burden and Neuro Zoomer can uncover root causes that aren’t always obvious, especially when traditional labs come back “normal.”
Tune in to learn how functional medicine can help you identify what’s really driving your symptoms and what you can do about it.
