If your thyroid labs keep coming back "normal" but you're exhausted, gaining weight, losing hair, and feeling like you're falling apart... if your doctor keeps checking TSH and telling you everything's fine... if you've been on thyroid medication for years but still feel terrible... this episode is your wake-up call.

Dr. Terri sits down with Dr. Cassie Smith, an endocrinologist and hormone specialist, for a game-changing conversation about why the standard approach to thyroid testing is failing millions of people. This isn't your typical thyroid talk - it's the truth about why TSH alone is a useless marker after you start treatment, why 40-60% of Americans are walking around with suboptimal thyroid function, and what your doctor should actually be checking.

WHAT YOU'LL DISCOVER:

This isn't about ONE blood test. It's about understanding the whole system.

Are You Biohacking Your Way to Burnout? The Truth About Longevity Fads

Cold plunges at 5 AM. 47 supplements before breakfast. HIIT training six days a week. Sound familiar?

In this year-end replay episode, Dr. Terri and integrative medicine expert Dr. Jim LaValle tackle the top 10 longevity trends dominating social media—and reveal which ones might actually be working against you.

Dr. Terri gets vulnerable about her own journey: boxing, HIIT training, strength training, restrictive eating, and stacks of supplements—yet feeling more inflamed and exhausted than ever. After finally taking Dr. LaValle's advice, she made a radical change. She cut back to Pilates three days a week, dropped 50 supplements down to just a few key ones, and stopped forcing intermittent fasting. The result? Her body finally responded.

This conversation is for anyone overwhelmed by wellness advice, exhausted from "doing all the things," or confused about what actually works. Dr. LaValle, a naturopathic doctor, pharmacist, theologian, and author of Your Blood Never Lies—breaks down the metabolic code for true longevity optimization.

What you'll discover:

Bottom line: The path to longevity isn't about doing more—it's about doing less, but doing the right things.

Stop exhausting yourself. Start living longer, better.

Sick of Getting Sick? Build Bulletproof Immunity This Cold & Flu Season

Someone in your office is coughing. The person behind you at the grocery store is sniffling. And you can feel it—that little tickle in your throat. So what do you do? Run out and get a flu shot? Load up on vitamin C and hope for the best?

Here's the question nobody's asking: What if the real problem isn't the virus—it's your immune system?

In this episode from our year-end replay series, Dr. Terri sits down with Dr. Jim LaValle to reveal what most doctors won't tell you about flu shots, immune resilience, and exactly what you can do right now to fortify your body's defenses.

In this episode, you'll discover:

The truth about flu vaccine effectiveness that pharmaceutical companies don't advertise

Why getting only 5 hours of sleep makes you NINE TIMES more likely to catch a virus

Dr. Jim's exact supplement protocol when he got sick (and how he powered through)

Vitamin D doses most doctors would never tell you about

The breakthrough green tea extract that's knocking out viruses—even herpes zoster

Why viruses attack your gut first and how that makes you vulnerable to everything else

The link between chronic inflammation and aging (inflammation-aging explained)

This isn't about surviving cold and flu season—it's about building immune resilience that lasts year after year. Dr. Jim breaks it down into simple, actionable steps: supplements you can order tonight, protocols you can start tomorrow, and game-changing strategies that just might transform how your body handles everything from seasonal flu to long-term health.

Be honest—you're already thinking about it. That voice saying "I'll just enjoy the holidays and deal with it in January." You know exactly what happens next: 10 pounds of bloating, water retention, and regret somewhere between Halloween candy and New Year's champagne.

But what if you didn't have to choose between enjoying the holidays and feeling good in your body?

With Thanksgiving just 2 days away, Dr. Terri is bringing back the conversation that resonated most during last year's holiday season—her practical, no-nonsense discussion with functional dietitian Elizabeth DiMeo on how to navigate the next six weeks WITHOUT the January regret.

In this episode, you'll discover:

Why skipping meals to "save up" for Thanksgiving dinner actually sabotages your metabolism

The ONE decision at the dessert table that changes everything (dessert OR alcohol—Elizabeth explains why)

Elizabeth's secret weapon appetizers you should bring to every holiday party (so you always have something guilt-free)

The buffalo cauliflower recipe that tastes so good you won't believe it's healthy

Her genius vodka-and-tomato trick that makes you the hit of the party

The truth about portion sizes (spoiler: a serving of cheese is just 2 dice)

Smart strategies for navigating office parties, family dinners, and cookie exchanges

This isn't about deprivation or restriction. Elizabeth gets it—she's Italian, she loves food, she literally just got back from France eating all the cheese. This is about STRATEGY. It's about making choices that let you enjoy yourself without spending January feeling bloated, inflamed, and defeated.

You still have time to grab ingredients before Thursday. You can still volunteer to bring that one dish that will save you. You can still set yourself up for success.

Two days until Thanksgiving. Let's make this the year you break the cycle.
