Liver biochemical abnormalities are seen in 15-76% of patients with untreated thyrotoxicosis - that is, those not taking antithyroid medication. This liver dysfunction is typically related to direct injury to the liver, comorbid heart failure, and associated autoimmune conditions. The good news is that, in most cases, liver enzymes can return to normal without lasting damage to the liver.

Today, I’m exploring what the research shows about liver dysfunction in those with hyperthyroidism. I’m talking about the relationship between untreated hyperthyroidism and liver enzyme abnormalities, potential causes, and the importance of monitoring liver function in hyperthyroid patients.

In this episode, you’ll learn about:
- Causes of liver dysfunction in those with hyperthyroidism
- How antithyroid medications can affect liver enzymes
- Specific liver enzymes impacted by untreated hyperthyroidism
- The relationship between elevated alkaline phosphatase and bone density concerns
- The correlation between heart failure and more severe liver dysfunction
- Autoimmune conditions that can impact liver health

As always, I hope you find this episode valuable, and I look forward to catching you in the next episode!

“Standing in the flow of energy that the natural world offers is foundational to health.” - Dr. Catherine Clinton

The chemical/mechanical model has produced such an incredible paradigm in health. Diet, lifestyle, supplementation, and functional medicine testing are a crucial part of many people’s paths to optimizing their health. At the same time, many of us are doing it all but hit roadblocks in recovery that require incorporating new tools and strategies, like those offered by quantum biology.

Getting back into the context of the natural world through coherence, grounding, and sunlight is a free, accessible, and powerful approach that can make a profound difference to someone’s health. Today I’m excited to be joined by Dr. Caroline Clinton to explore the topic of quantum biology. Dr. Catherine is a licensed naturopathic physician who has spent over 16 years helping people overcome their health issues. She has learned how our quantum biological system is intimately and inseparably connected to the world around us and has seen the benefits for her own health and those of her patients.

In this conversation, Dr. Catherine and I discuss her experiences with Hashimoto's thyroiditis, Lyme disease, and ulcerative colitis, how she first learned about quantum biology's impact on health, the benefits of grounding, sunlight exposure, and coherence, the significant positive impact of aligning with natural elements to support healing and maintain health, and more. Enjoy the episode!

There’s no one best diet for any health condition but there are certain similarities across diets that are beneficial for those with thyroid and autoimmune thyroid conditions. For my patients with Graves’ and Hashimoto’s, I typically recommend an AIP diet as a starting point, eventually reintroducing foods which don’t trigger a negative response. While many patients start there, some will choose to follow other diets that people with autoimmune conditions have found to be beneficial.

Today I’m sharing my dietary recommendations for people with Hashimoto's. I’m discussing the pros and cons of common diet approaches, common foods to include and avoid, and the importance of reintroducing foods after an elimination phase.

In this episode, you’ll learn about:
- The three types of diets I discuss in my latest book
- Common foods to avoid across multiple types of diets
- What you need to know about elimination diets
- Why grains and legumes are generally excluded
- Foods that are allowed and to be avoided on each type of diet
- How to decide which type of diet is best for you
-Reintroducing foods after an elimination diet

As always, I hope you find this episode valuable, and I look forward to catching you in the next episode!
