Turmeric is a herb used for thousands of years to help with different health conditions and is commonly used in cooking. Turmeric’s health benefits have been well-documented, with thousands of research studies showing its positive effects, many of which are attributed to the activity of one specific component called curcumin.

Curcumin is what gives turmeric its yellow color, and it has exhibited antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal, and anticancer activities and thus can potentially benefit people with various conditions.

Today, I’m sharing how turmeric can benefit people with thyroid conditions, especially those with autoimmune thyroid conditions such as Graves’ disease and Hashimoto’s, and the role that turmeric can play in the thyroid healing journey while addressing the underlying causes of your condition.

In this episode, you’ll learn about:
- Historical uses of turmeric
- The anti-inflammatory properties of curcumin
- What research shows about curcumin and autoimmune disease and thyroid cancer
- Turmerics contraindications and interactions
- What to consider about taking the different forms of turmeric
- Recommended dosages of turmeric
- Research on turmeric and thyroid conditions




As always, I hope you find this episode valuable, and I look forward to catching you in the next episode!

Toxic multinodular goiter is a type of hyperthyroidism in which a person has a goiter in the presence of multiple thyroid nodules. In today’s Save My Thyroid audit, I’m chatting with Nanette, who has been dealing with toxic multinodular goiter for over 20 years and I’ll be sharing practical advice to help her improve her health.

Nanette’s thyroid journey began at age 16 when she had her first thyroid nodule, which was then surgically removed. Later, at age 30, she found herself in the same scenario, and she had a second surgery. Following that, she’s been on and off of different thyroid medications and was eventually diagnosed with toxic multinodular goiter.

While this isn’t the same as the comprehensive consultations I do with patients, you’ll get a lot of value from the conversation. Nanette and I discuss long-term medication use, her treatment with propylthiouracil (PTU), dietary changes, the importance of stress management, why we need to address underlying causes like insulin resistance and inflammation, my approach to testing and lifestyle modifications, and more.

Many people with hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism experience hair loss, and in some cases, this hair loss can be extreme. That said, in my practice, hair loss occurs more commonly with my hyperthyroid patients - whether Graves’ disease, toxic multinational goiter, or subacute thyroiditis - and they also tend to experience more severe cases of hair loss.

Today, I’m discussing extreme thyroid-related hair loss, factors that can contribute to it, treatment options for the condition, and why we have to take a comprehensive and holistic approach to managing thyroid hair loss.

In this episode, you’ll learn:
- How thyroid conditions can lead to hair loss
- Other potential causes of hair loss in those with thyroid conditions
- What research shows about alopecia areata and thyroid autoimmunity
- Treatment options to address hair loss
-The importance of nutrient testing and the role of gut health




As always, I hope you find this episode valuable, and I look forward to catching you in the next episode!
