The Health Pulse

Hashimoto's Thyroiditis: Symptoms, Causes | Episode 85


Listen Later

That bone-deep exhaustion, creeping weight gain, and stubborn brain fog aren’t just part of getting older—they could be signs of Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, the most common autoimmune thyroid condition affecting millions worldwide.

In this episode of The Health Pulse, we explore how the immune system mistakenly attacks the thyroid gland, gradually impairing its ability to produce the hormones every cell in your body depends on. We discuss why symptoms often go overlooked or misdiagnosed, how TSH and thyroid antibody testing confirm the condition, and why women between ages 30–60 are especially vulnerable.

Beyond medication, we highlight a comprehensive care approach—covering nutrition (selenium, vitamin D, gluten sensitivity), stress management, and lifestyle interventions that support thyroid and immune health. Most importantly, we emphasize how early detection and proper testing can prevent years of diminished quality of life and long-term complications.

If you’ve been told “your labs look normal” but still don’t feel like yourself, this episode may provide the missing piece.
