In this rare and powerful interview, I sit down with Dr. Denis Wilson, the creator of Wilson’s Temperature Syndrome, for his first podcast appearance in years. Can you say AMAZING?! We dive into the origin of Wilson’s Temperature Syndrome, what it actually is, and how it differs from classic hypothyroidism. Dr. Wilson explains why body temperature is one of the most accurate reflections of your metabolism! And why metabolism is the true core function of the thyroid.

You’ll learn why you can’t measure metabolism on a blood test, why normal thyroid labs don’t always mean you’re well, and how doctors may completely overlook conversion issues, low T3 function, and cellular-level hormone activity.

We also explore:

Why low body temperature is a red flag for metabolic slowdown

How to increase temperature with T3 and how weaning off can still leave symptoms resolved

How the deiodinase enzymes work to control T4-to-T3 conversion

Why so many people remain symptomatic even on thyroid medication

The cellular reasons behind fatigue, weight gain, brain fog, and low mood

How stress is one of the biggest drivers of thyroid dysfunction

The shocking impact that just one night of poor sleep can have on metabolism

And lots more!

This episode is essential for anyone who has low thyroid symptoms but “normal” labs, struggles with chronic fatigue or low temperatures, or wants a deeper understanding of metabolism from the physician who pioneered this field.

Denis Wilson, MD, described Wilson ‘s Temperature Syndrome in 1988 after observing people with symptoms of low thyroid and low body temperature, yet who had normal blood tests. He found that by normalizing their temperatures with T3 (without T4) their symptoms often remained improved even after the treatment was discontinued. As a result of his findings, Dr. Wilson developed the WT3 protocol for Wilson’s Temperature Syndrome (now standard of care) and originated sustained release T3. He was the first doctor to use sustained-release T3. Find out more about Dr Wilson here;
