I am delighted to connect with Dr. Anshul Gupta today! 

Dr. Gupta is a best-selling author, speaker, researcher, and world expert on Hashimoto’s. He educates people worldwide on reversing Hashimoto’s disease. He is a Board-Certified Family Medicine Physician who worked at the prestigious Cleveland Clinic alongside Dr. Mark Hyman.

In this episode, Dr. Gupta shares his personal story, and we discuss the root of autoimmunity, how Hashimoto’s disease causes the slow destruction of the thyroid gland, and the impact of chronic stress, diet, and an imbalanced gut microbiome. We also discuss toxins and infections, labs to watch out for, fasting and thyroid disease, as well as medication options, peptides, and the issues surrounding iodine supplementation.
