The vast majority of us with hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism have autoimmune conditions (Hashimoto's/Graves' Disease) that have causes the issues with our thyroid hormones. This is why it's so important to
a) know if you have an autoimmune condition and
b) what you can do to calm the autoimmunity (ie put out the fire).
To help unpack this topic, I'm joined on the podcast by Risa Groux.
Some of the topics covered in this conversation include:

I've been wanting for a while to explore the connection not only between the gut and the brain but also with the various mood related issues and symptoms that are common for those with thyroid conditions. We often can make the connections ourselves with our gut and digestive concerns but don't always make the connection between our gut health and things like anxiety, depression, brain fog and other cognitive and mood symptoms.
To help us understand these connections, I'm joined on the show by Dr Vincent Pedre, America’s Gut Doctor seen in First for Women, Woman’s World, Fox News, ABC, CNN, MindBodyGreen, Parade, Newsweek, Yahoo, The Gabby Reece, Dhru Purohit, Dave Asprey and now the Let's Talk Thyroid podcast.
Some of the topics covered in this conversation include:
Dr. Vincent Pedre, the Medical Director of Pedre Integrative Health and Founder of Dr. Pedre Wellness, CEO/Founder of Happy Gut Life, has worked as a nutraceutical consultant and spokesperson for NatureMD and Orthomolecular Products, and is a Functional Medicine-Certified Practitioner with a concierge practice in New York City since 2004. As the bestselling author of two books on the gut, he believes the gut is the gateway to excellent wellness. His newest book, The GutSMART Protocol — featuring a 14-day personalized gut-healing plan based on the GutSMART Quiz — is the culmination of years of research and clinical experience as a functional gut health expert. And his newest offering, Happy Gut Coffee, is a clean, toxin-free coffee that you can trust to keep your gut happy.

My guest on today's podcast is Tanisha Patel, Tanisha is a UKIHCA accredited health coach that specialises in helping women with Hypothyroidism on their diet, sleep, stress, exercise and gut health.

In doing this she has found ways to give herself more energy, feel better, reduce symptoms and now she is helping others to do the same.
Some of the topics covered in this conversation include:
⭐️ Symptoms Tanisha started noticing (or noticed in retrospect)
⭐️ Dealing with being a teenager with low energy
⭐️ The help of friends to point out what's normal and what's not!

It’s common when you’re living with a chronic (long term) thyroid condition to not feel ok all the time. I’m here to encourage you, however, that you WILL be ok. I know because I’m ok and if I can be ok, so can you! Being ‘ok’ is not being ‘perfect’ which I don’t believe is attainable, but it is about feeling like there is hope, feeling like there are things you can do which will have a positive impact on your life.

This is a first for the Let's Talk Thyroid podcast. The first time I've had an ENT (Ear Nose Throat) Surgeon on the show. Dr Dana Gibbs is an ENT and an allergist and is a wealth of knowledge on thyroid and hormone health. Like many of my guests, it was when she couldn't get answers to her own health challenges that she took her health into her own hands and started digging deeper, into the thyroid and beyond!
This is a fascinating conversation.
Some of what we cover includes:
Dr. Dana Gibbs is an educator, Hormone expert, board-certified ENT, and allergist. Dr. Gibbs attended medical school in San Antonio Texas and trained in Otolaryngology at the University of Kansas. She practiced otolaryngology in Arlington TX, USA for 23 years.
Her experience of ill health during her teen years all the way to her late 30's led to profound changes in the way she practices medicine. After spending those years unrecognized, dismissed, and told "it was all in her head", she found mentors in the Integrative Medicine world that helped her find the answers and solutions to her problems. These answers now inform her practice and educational efforts.
She recently opened Consultants in Metabolism, a direct care practice for thyroid, metabolic and hormone management for Women and Men. The practice offers live and virtual visits.
Dr.Gibbs also speaks in person and online, presenting workshops that introduce physicians and patients to the unique solutions of an integrative Hormone practice.

I'm welcoming back Angela Brown to the podcast today because I wanted to get someone else on to talk about their personal thyroid-friendly lifestyle, and I know Angela walks her talk! You might remember her from way back in episode 37 where we talked about mineral and mindset for thyroid patients.
I think after you've listened you'll agree that Ange is the real deal when it comes to living out what she teaches.
Hopefully after listening to this conversation, you have some fresh inspiration to tweak your own unique thyroid-friendly lifestyle!

We have been on a stress/gut/healing journey over the last few episodes and I love how this often happens - the conversations follow similar themes from different angles, perspectives and stories which helps to really unpack the topic.
To continue the theme, Libby Munro joins me to share her story of healing her Hashimoto's and unpack further the connection between how you handle stress, manage gut health and heal autoimmune thyroid conditions. Libby brings energy and education to the thyroid community and in particular is a popular thyroid advocate in the Australian Thyroid Community.
We cover:
Meet Libby:
Libby grew up on a cattle station in outback Queensland, and originally followed her passion for acting, graduating from NIDA in 2008. She then enjoyed a thriving creative career on stage and screen, fulfilling her wildest performance dreams, but it took an incredible toll on her physical health.
It was during her time at NIDA that Libby’s health was first impacted by constant dieting, stress, and maintaining the maniacally busy schedule of a theatre artist. She was diagnosed with the autoimmune condition 'Hashimotos' at only 25 years old, and so began her parallel interest in health, lifestyle and nutrition. Libby took her health into her own hands, studied her autoimmune disease, and then implemented diet and lifestyle changes - effectively putting her disease into remission.
While working on a film in Los Angeles in 2017, Libby hired a nutrition coach from American company Black Iron Nutrition while training for a very physically demanding role. It was her experience with a wonderful coach at BIN that made her look into a career in health and start studying under Precision Nutrition. Returning to Australia when Covid-19 struck, Libby completed her study and applied for an internship with Black Iron Nutrition and was subsequently hired as one of their elite coaches.
While she loved her 2 years as a nutrition coach, Libby found that she wanted to help people with very serious conditions like her own and has found her niche in improving her client's gut health, working to put autoimmunity into remission for a broader audience and supporting long term health in these areas.
She continues her passion for acting, most recently starring in Queensland Theatre Co’s 2023 season of “The Appleton Ladies Potato Race”, and appearing in the Netfli

"Can you heal Hashimoto's?" is a common question I've been asked over the years, and have asked myself. My guest on this episode, Josie Warren strongly believes you can heal Hashimoto's (& other autoimmune diseases) by addressing how you emotionally respond to life. It's a fascinating and challenging conversation and one full of HOPE.
We cover:
What is ONE THING you can take away from this episode?
Josie is an expert in the psychology of illness. She had eight autoimmune diseases, depression, anxiety, ADD, alcoholism, and an eating disorder in her teens and 20’s. After years of struggling with traditional and alternative medicine, she was unable to solve any of her chronic health issues.
Thankfully, through learning how to deal with her emotional state, she was able to permanently resolve all of her chronic health issues and autoimmune diseases in a very short period of time.
Nine years fully healthy, Josie is passionate about helping others with autoimmune diseases and chronic health disorders fully heal by helping people resolve their emotional state.
On today’s podcast, she is excited to share about the psychology of illness with the Let’s Talk Thyroid audience.

The topic of gut health comes up often on this show. It's important to revisit it because for everyone with an autoimmune thyroid condition, there will be be leaky gut and other gut issues to be dealt with.
In this episode, I talk with Donna Monthei, Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and Licensed Dietitian about a range of gut health topics including:
- Donna's personal Hashimoto's story and then gut issue after taking 2 different antibiotics.
- The gut-thyroid and gut-autoimmunity connection.
- How to test for leaky gut and other gut issues.
- The impact of antibiotics on the gut.
- Parasites - what they are, how to know if you have one and should everyone do a parasite cleanse?
- Ways to take your thyroid meds that bypass the digestive system, where appropriate.
What is ONE THING you can take away from this episode?
Donna Monthei is a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and Licensed Dietitian. She is the founder of EverVital Nutrition and creator of The Complete Gut Fix Program.
As a gut health expert, Donna has 20+ years of experience working with hundreds of people with chronic gut symptoms to help them poop like champions! 🏆
She's also got her own Hashi's and gut health stories, which we'll dig into a bit here, and this intimate experience helps her understand and connect with her patients on a really unique level.
Donna is a mom of two 20-something boys... (I guess they're men now, right?) and is based in Austin, Texas, USA. She is a bit of a digital nomad during the hot summers and loves to be active with hiking, strength training, yoga, and cycling.
