Welcome to Hormonious, the podcast where we dive deep into the world of functional medicine, hormone health and wellness. I'm Catherine Brigger, nurse practitioner.

This one's going to be a game changer for anyone who's ever struggled with fatigue, weight gain, brain fog, depression, or kind of just feeling like your doctor is missing something. 

In today's episode, we're going to discuss the shocking truth about mismanagement and underdiagnosis of thyroid disease in America. We'll discuss how the conventional medicine world grossly undertreats and undertests for this and how functional medicine gets it right. 

Here's the hard truth. Thyroid disease is one of the most mismanaged conditions in modern medicine. Millions of people are walking around undiagnosed, undertreated, and the worst part is that their doctors aren't even looking at the right tests to discover what's wrong with them. Today I'm going to expose the real numbers behind undiagnosed thyroid disease. We're gonna talk about why your doctor is running the wrong tests and what tests they actually need to be running. 

We'll talk about why functional medicine gets it right while traditional medicine seems to keep failing at this topic. The truth about thyroid medicine, and let me tell ya, spoiler alert, it ain't levothyroxine or synthroid. We're gonna talk about how the thyroid and the brain, the heart, the metabolism, and breast health are all connected. This episode is packed with eye-opening information, so. 

Settle in and get ready to take control of your health.
