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.

Air Hunger and Hyperthyroidism
Air hunger, also known as dyspnea, refers to shortness of breath or the feeling of not getting enough oxygen. While a thyroid hormone imbalance can be a factor in some cases, there are many other potential causes of dyspnea, including asthma, COPD, congestive heart failure, interstitial lung disease, pneumonia, and mental disorders.
For those with thyroid conditions, air hunger is more commonly associated with hyperthyroidism and Graves’ disease than hypothyroidism, though it may not always be the cause. Today, I’m explaining the connection between air hunger and hyperthyroidism, how it is diagnosed, the importance of addressing thyroid hormone imbalances, related conditions to consider, and the need for a comprehensive treatment approach to manage air hunger effectively.
In this episode, you’ll learn about:
- How hyperthyroidism is potentially linked to air hunger
- The physiology of respiration and the role of mitochondria in cellular respiration
- How dyspnea presents and the differences between acute and chronic dyspnea
- Potential causes of dyspnea
- Diagnostic methods used in evaluating dyspnea
- What research shows about thyroid conditions and dyspnea
- Types of sleep apnea and the relationship with hyperthyroidism
- Natural treatment options for dyspnea
- Role of nutrients like CoQ10 and L-carnitine in supporting mitochondrial function
As always, I hope you find this episode valuable, and I look forward to catching you in the next episode!
