In this episode of the Thyroid Strong Podcast, Dr. Emily Kiberd sheds light on the often-overlooked connection between H. Pylori infections and thyroid issues, particularly in women with Hashimoto's. 

Despite a clean diet, proper supplementation, and regular workouts, many still struggle with fatigue, brain fog, and stubborn weight. Could a stealth infection in your gut be to blame? 

Dr. Kiberd explains what H. Pylori is, how highly transmissible it is, how you can get it, how to test for it, and the steps you can take to address it. She cites the research on how H pylori can trigger Hashimoto’s and how addressing it can decrease your thyroid antibodies.
