Radio Show: The Thyroid-Gut Connection

In this show you’ll learn:

• How the Gut-Thyroid-Immune Connection impacts your energy and what you can do to restore balance.
• What your Gut Bacteria has to do with your Thyroid, and how to rebuild, repair, and restore your energy by feeding your microbiome
• How you can heal the Gut-Thyroid Axis  and recover from autoimmune conditions like Hashimoto’s thyroiditis.

Background:

Hippocrates said: “All disease begins in the gut.” 2,500 years later we’re just beginning to understand how right he was. And hypothyroidism is no exception. Poor gut health can suppress thyroid function and trigger Hashimoto’s disease, and low thyroid function can lead to an inflamed and leaky gut.

Join Dr. Ritamarie as she discusses the influence of thyroid hormones on the gut.  Low thyroid hormones make it difficult to heal the gut, and an inflamed and leaky gut contributes to just about every disease there is, including hypothyroidism. Fixing the gut is often the first – and most important step.

Dr. Ritamarie is the founder of the Institute of Nutritional Endocrinology, and has over 23 years of clinical experience as a functional medicine practitioner and clinical nutritionist.
