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 Peptides Help With Thyroid Conditions? | James Lavalle
Curious about peptides but unsure where to start?
In this conversation, I speak with clinical pharmacist and author Jim LaValle about how specific peptides like BPC-157 and KPV can support gut health, reduce inflammation, and potentially accelerate healing in those with autoimmune thyroid conditions. He breaks down the mechanisms in layman’s terms, including how gut permeability and chronic stress can feed into conditions like Hashimoto’s and Graves’.
We also explore the nuances around GLP-1 medications for weight loss, the role of peptides in hair loss recovery, and whether certain compounds are appropriate for long-term use. Throughout, we return to the theme that peptides are tools—not magic—and they’re most effective when paired with foundational lifestyle shifts.
Tune in to learn where peptides can fit into your thyroid or autoimmune healing journey!
