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:

• Understanding autoimmunity and it's impact
• What is the fire of autoimmunity that needs to be put out?
• Role of thyroid antibodies
• How to manage thyroid antibodies
• What is a functional nutrition approach to autoimmunity?
• The Autoimmune Protocol
• Developing a personalised approach to managing your autoimmunity
• Digestive healing
• Lectins - what are they and what impact can they have?
• Root causes
• A look into Risa's daily routine

What is ONE THING you can take away from this episode?
