Save My Thyroid: Healing Tips for Hyperthyroidism and Hashimoto's
If you have hyperthyroidism (Graves' disease, toxic multinodular goiter, etc.) or Hashimoto's thyroiditis and are looking to do everything to save your thyroid gland, then the Save My Thyroid podcast is for you! Dr. Eric Osansky DC, IFMCP is the host, as he personally was diagnosed with Graves' disease in 2008 and was able to get into remission taking a natural approach. He created this podcast to help others with hyperthyroidism and Hashimoto's save their thyroid and regain their health. If you have hyperthyroidism then pretty much all of the episodes will benefit you, and if you have Hashimoto's you'll benefit from most of the guest expert episodes, as well as some of the "solo" episodes. The reason there is more of a focus on hyperthyroidism is because all of the other thyroid-related podcasts focus mostly on hypothyroidism/Hashimoto's, and since Dr. Eric personally dealt with Graves' disease he wanted this podcast to focus more on hyperthyroidism, although it will still offer plenty of value to those with hypothyroidism/Hashimoto's. Dr. Eric Osansky lives in Matthews NC with his wife, 2 daughters, 3 cats, 2 dogs, and 3 guinea pigs! He has been a practitioner for 20+ years, and has focused on helping people with thyroid and autoimmune thyroid conditions since 2009.

Is melatonin harmful in those with Graves' disease and Hashimoto's?
Many people are familiar with the benefits of melatonin when it comes to sleep. However, research shows that the hormone may have much more to offer.
While its primary function is to help regulate the body’s circadian rhythm, research has shown other benefits, such as strengthening the immune system, improving bone density, potentially helping to prevent the development of certain types of cancers, and benefiting those with autoimmune conditions.
Today, I’m sharing the critical insights anyone with Graves' disease or Hashimoto's needs to know about melatonin, including how it impacts thyroid health and what recent research says, particularly about those with autoimmune thyroid conditions.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Melatonin’s role in regulating the body’s circadian rhythm
- How melatonin impacts multiple aspects of your overall health
- Potential causes of low melatonin levels
- Precursors of melatonin
- Testing for melatonin deficiency
- The connection between melatonin and thyroid hormone production
- Potential benefits of melatonin for people with autoimmune conditions
- What recent journal articles show about the effects of melatonin on immune function
- My recommendations for melatonin for those with thyroid conditions
As always, I hope you find this episode valuable, and I look forward to catching you in the next episode!
