When hormones are not in their free form, they travel through the bloodstream while bound to a protein.

Thyroid binding globulin (TBG) is one such protein. It binds to the thyroid hormones thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). Essentially, TBG ensures that these hormones reach their intended destination.

Today, I’m sharing the role of TBG, the various factors that can influence its levels, methods for measuring these binding proteins, and strategies to help you bring your TBG levels back to normal.

In this episode, you’ll learn about:
- The role of thyroid binding globulin in the body
- Factors that increase and decrease thyroid binding globulin levels
- How and when to measure thyroid binding globulin
- What you can do to normalize thyroid binding globulin levels


As always, I hope you find this episode valuable, and I look forward to catching you in the next episode!
