The Paleo Thyroid Connection with Elle Russ

You might not know this, but part of the reason I stick to a Paleo diet is because of my issues with my thyroid.

My friend and my guest tonight, Elle Russ, literally wrote the book on how the Paleo diet can help those with thyroid problems – and even those without.

Tonight on Dr. Lo Radio, we'll dive into the mechanics of the Paleo diet and why it has such an impact on thyroid healthy.

Elle Russ is a writer, health/life coach, and host of the Primal Blueprint Podcast. She is becoming the leading voice of thyroid health in the burgeoning Evolutionary Health Movement (also referred to as Paleo, Primal, or Ancestral Health). She sits on the advisory board of The Primal Health Coach Program created by Mark Sisson, bestselling author of The Primal Blueprint. Elle wrote The Paleo Thyroid Solution after consulting with over two dozen endocrinologists, internal medicine specialists, and general practice MDs...but her thyroid condition was only getting worse - and nothing from doctors resembled a solution, or even hope. Exasperated and desperate, Elle took control of her own health and resolved two severe bouts of hypothyroidism on her own – including an acute Reverse T3 problem. Through a devoted paleo/primal lifestyle, intensive personal experimentation, and a radically modified approach to thyroid hormone replacement therapy…Elle went from fat, foggy, and fatigued – to fit, focused, and full of life!
