What’s the deal with my thyroid?

November 5, 2015 by Carolyn Coffin

Are you tired and cold? Do you have unexplained weight loss? Are your hair, skin, and nails not growing like normal? Are you constipated?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, no doubt your thyroid gland has been considered a primary suspect.

I love picking our resident expert’s brain, and today Dr. Michelle Durkin answers all of my questions about the thyroid gland. She speaks to its role in all of the above symptoms, as well as the one strategy she’s seen work time and time again over that past 11 years with patients in her naturopathic practice.

“You can’t deal with the branches of the tree if the trunk is rotting.” -Dr. Michelle Durkin

Stay tuned for future Eat Real Food TV episodes where we delve further into the root causes of typical thyroid symptoms such as insulin-resistance, adrenal fatigue, and dysbiosis.

Now we want to hear from you. Have you ever had success treating thyroid symptoms with an eat real food approach?

    Are these only women’s symptoms? Men were not mentioned at all

      Hi Mary, thyroid symptoms are more common in women, but men definitely do experience them as well. Great question! Carolyn
