What’s the relationship between iodine and thyroid health? That’s our conversation today. The explanation provided by my guest (returning guest, Sara Banta) makes a complicated, integrated process of body functions much easier to understand. 

My Guest: 

Sara Banta is the owner of Accelerated Health Products in addition to the host of Accelerated Health Radio and TV. She helps her clients and listeners reach their optimal state of health through proper frequency enhanced detox supplements, cutting edge technologies, and modalities.

Her journey hit rock bottom about 15 years ago suffering from Crohn's disease, hormonal issues, PCOS and heavy metal toxicity. After Western medicine couldn't give her answers or solutions, she discovered natural solutions that actually worked. As she was on her journey, she was hit with her 9 year old son’s diagnosis of leukemia. It was that moment that she knew she had a bigger calling in life; to open people’s eyes to the world of natural healing. Fast forward to today where she serves her clients and listeners with cutting edge protocols that combine Scalar frequency-based supplements, Chinese medicine, healing devices and much more to detox, reset and rebuild their Body, Mind and Spirit.

She has a degree from Stanford University in Economics and Psychology, Institute of Integrative Nutrition, and the Invincible Wellness System.

Questions we answer in this episode:

04:56 Why is iodine a necessary supplement in today’s world?

09:42 Who tests iodine sufficiency? 

10:05 Why is it such a controversial supplement? Really, even among functional doctors, this one got resistance from my own functional doc. 

The elephant in the room is, just when you might be open to exploring a new path to health, your doctor may throw up just one little additional source of resistance - a tone of voice, a look, or a flat out “That’s really is voodoo medicine” - literally heard by a good friend of mine yesterday when he asked his doctor about testosterone options and opened up with the the “optimal” vs “normal” level. 

13:15 What will make TSH go high taking iodine?

17:56 What is causing a rise in hypothyroidism?

What dietary and other supplement tools can help thyroid health?

33:00 What's the future of medicine?
