Thyroid Talk with Dr. Angela Mazza, DO
Recorded: 3-8-2024
SHOW NOTES EPISODE 29
Hyperthyroid and Graves’ disease:
Interview with Dr. Eric Osansky, DC
Host: Dr. Angela Mazza, DO
Co-host: Dawn Sheffield
I’m Dr. Angela Mazza, D.O., a thyroid, endocrine, and metabolism specialist with a private practice in Central Florida. My goal for this podcast is to define and demystify the thyroid gland, and thyroid-related medical conditions. By providing information in an easy-to-understand format, we hope to help patients better understand the ways in which their bodies work, and to help them thrive. My goal is to help us live more fulfilling lives by taking control of our health, to feel our best.
I do this podcast to provide life-saving education and encourage patients to see a doctor in time to prevent or minimize damage. That’s deeply fulfilling. I enjoy helping folks understand how all aspects of their lives are tied to both thyroid and overall health. That’s why I went into endocrinology. It’s a medical art that combines science with the study of our lives—and all that they encompass.
Here’s some of what we covered, not necessarily in this order:
· What is Graves’ disease and how is it diagnosed?;
· Functional medicine, defined;
· What is meant by the term, “anti-thyroid” medication?;
· Don’t try to self-diagnose or self-treat--that can have severe consequences;
· The roles played by leaky gut, stress, and the immune system in Graves’ disease;
· Find health-care professionals to guide you to a correct diagnosis and treatment plan;
· Conventional treatments, functional medicine, and possible treatment options for some patients;
· And best of all, we learned that we CAN impact our thyroid health!
