254. My 7-Year Hashimoto's Journey: Symptoms, Testing, and What Actually Helped
Description
In this solo episode, I’m sharing my personal 7-year journey with Hashimoto’s—covering symptoms, testing, and what actually helped me feel better, even alongside my work with multiple sclerosis (MS).
I dive into the ups and downs of being gluten free, navigating food sensitivities, and discovering the critical role of gut health in autoimmune conditions like Hashimoto’s and MS. If you’ve ever wondered how nutrition and leaky gut can impact your fatigue, energy, mobility, and overall quality of life with MS, this episode is for you.
I’ll walk you through the step-by-step testing I did (including the important anti-TPO blood test for thyroid autoimmunity), diet strategies, my own personal story with practitioners, and how to advocate for yourself with your healthcare team.
Tune in for research-backed, real-life tips to help you manage MS symptoms, support thyroid health, and feel empowered in your wellness journey.
