Episode description as stored
If you’ve been told your thyroid is “fine” but you’re still exhausted, gaining weight, losing hair, feeling cold, constipated, or struggling with brain fog, there may be more to the story.
In this episode, Dr. Taz explains why a single TSH result may not capture the full picture of thyroid health, and why symptoms can sometimes appear before traditional lab markers begin to shift.
She breaks down six common warning signs of thyroid dysfunction and explores the factors that may be driving them, including Hashimoto’s, chronic stress and cortisol, nutrient deficiencies, gut health, blood sugar, and environmental exposures.
You’ll also learn which thyroid markers can help provide a broader picture, including Free T3, Free T4, reverse T3, and thyroid antibodies, and why looking at patterns over time can be just as important as looking at a single number.
In this episode:
Why “normal” and “optimal” thyroid function are not always the same
Why TSH is only one part of the thyroid picture
6 common signs of thyroid dysfunction
The connection between Hashimoto’s and thyroid antibodies
How stress and cortisol can affect thyroid function
The role of iron, iodine, selenium, and zinc
How gut health and blood sugar connect to thyroid health
Which thyroid labs Dr. Taz looks at
How a root-cause approach connects symptoms, labs, and lifestyle
If you want to go deeper on thyroid health, listen to Dr. Taz’s conversation with Dr. Amie Hornaman, The Thyroid Fixer , for a deeper discussion of thyroid symptoms, testing, and root causes.
