In this episode of the Thyroid Strong podcast, Dr. Emily welcomes Dr. Kasey Holland, a leading expert in Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) and integrative approaches to chronic illness. Together, they unpack the role EBV plays in women with Hashimoto’s, why reactivation is so common, and how it’s often an overlooked contributor to persistent fatigue and inflammation.
The conversation explores how EBV is tested, why foundational habits like hydration, sunlight, and movement matter more than most realize, and how complex layers—like mold, stress, or mitochondrial dysfunction—can keep the body stuck. Dr. Holland shares real case examples, treatment priorities, and insights into using antiviral herbs, nutrients, and clinical strategies that support long-term healing.
If you’ve been told your labs are “normal” but still don’t feel well, this conversation offers practical guidance and hope.
