In the episode, I speak more on the topic of thyroid health, how it is a symptom of a larger imbalance in the body, and how the hierarchy of hormones needs to be considered when it comes to "healing" the thyroid.

We also talk about how important gut and liver play a role as most of our thyroid is actually converted in these two areas! We also chat about the things that blow thyroid receptors including heavy metals, halogens, and even insulin.

We can test minerals, metals, and toxins through functional labs and those can be requested here.

I also talk about the importance of knowing what blood sugar, insulin and cortisol are doing in regard to thyroid, and I always encourage testing your individual response to know for sure with a CGM, like Nutrisense! CODE: DRSTACYND25

Next, I talk about coffee, while there can be many therapeutic benefits from any polyphenol contains foods, we all have different responses to caffeine and coffee, so I speak on some of the signs to look for is it is not working for you, testing your own blood sugar response, of course, and emphasizing QUALITY as well if it is something you continue in your day to day!

Lastly, I talk about the power of intention setting when it comes to the new year and really anytime! When it is a heart led or intuition led decision or idea, it is going to stick that much more, we are OUT with the resolutions that are based off of fear, guilt, and shame. We work better in a place of love and empathy for where we are while working on the higher version of ourselves we are working towards!

Thank you so much for the support, for more on all of these, head to my IG @dr.stacy.nd and stay tuned for more topics and questions I take from my social!

With Gratitude, 

Dr. Stacy
