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.

Can Candida Trigger Thyroid Autoimmunity?
While yeast is a normal part of your gut flora, issues can arise when its population gets too high. I commonly see Candida overgrowth in my patients with Graves’ disease and Hashimoto’s, with the most well-known species of yeast in the gut being Candida albicans.
Research shows that Candida can contribute to an increase in intestinal permeability, also known as leaky gut, which is one part of the triad of autoimmunity. Today, I’m exploring whether Candida can trigger thyroid autoimmunity and how to test for and manage Candida overgrowth.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- How Candida overgrowth may contribute to the development of autoimmune thyroid conditions
- Pros and cons of Candida overgrowth testing methods
- Signs and symptoms of Candida overgrowth
- Challenges with testing for small intestinal fungal overgrowth (SIFO)
- Dietary recommendations for managing Candida overgrowth
- Natural treatment options and medications for Candida overgrowth
As always, I hope you find this episode valuable, and I look forward to catching you in the next episode!
