Over the last few of weeks I've put together a compilation of the many hypothyroid questions I’ve gotten on social media, from 1:1 clients, and from my Club members. In this multi-part series I’m answering them all. 

Today we're covering... 

• What do I do if my doctor says my labs are fine, but I still am struggling with my weight? 
• What's your opinion on nightshades?
• Are rice noodles "bad"? I'm so hungry after a workout and 2 cups of rice/quinoa just doesn't fill me up like 1 cup of gluten-free pasta. 
• What causes non hashimotos hyp...

Today we're covering... 

• What type of exercise routine is best for someone with hypothyroidism?
• I have Hashimoto’s, IBS-C, and SIBO methane and can’t find relief. I’ve tried eating better, supplements, I workout daily, sleep more, sleep less. I’ve tried everything. What should I do?
• Should I be tracking my macros or calories differently if ...

Digging through all the nutrition info out there and figuring out what you should or shouldn’t be doing is already quite the task these days. Add in being hypothyroid and that detective work gets a lot more complicated. 

You read article after article, listen to podcast after podcast, read book after book, and at the end of it all you’re left with more questions than answers. You’re stuck in a state of freeze, certain one wrong move is going to only send you deeper into the hole of stubborn weight, constipation, gas, bloating, fatigue, an...

There’s a lot of information out there on what to do when you’re hypothyroid. There’s a bit less information on what to do when you’re hyperthyroid. But there is a whole lot less information on what to do once your thyroid is gone (usually due to Hashimoto’s, nodules, or thyroid cancer). 

This information gap was brought to my attention by an attendee of my free hypothyroid heroes q&a coaching call (which I’ll be hosting again August 21, 6-7 pm, click here to grab your spot) and it was a topic that seemed worth exploring here with you.

Raise your hand if this sounds familiar:

You wake up in pain—slowly working your way out of bed, stretching and wincing as you go. Before you even brush your teeth, you’re popping an ibuprofen, hoping it'll get you through the day.

I get it. When you’re hurting, you want relief fast. And NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs like Advil and Aleve) can seem like the easiest fix.

But here’s the problem: that little pill you’re reaching for each day might actually be keeping you stuck in a cycle of pain and inflammation long term. I k...

Navigating the world of nutrition these days feels like assembling a puzzle with pieces from different boxes—some fit, some almost fit, and some make you question if you’re even working on the right picture.

You can have world renowned experts preaching opposite nutrition philosophies - yet both make great arguments, both seem logical, and both have a slew of studies backing their claims.

So how are you supposed to make any decisions? How do you know worthy pursuits from time-wasters? How do you avoid spending money on more snake oil?

So how are you supposed to make any decisions? How do you know worthy pursuits from time-wasters? How do you avoid spending money on more snake oil?

Nearly a quarter of American adults - 52 million people - deal with chronic pain. The kind of pain that you might find brief relief from after a good massage, stretch session, or adjustment, but which always seems to come back with a vengeance. 

Why is it so hard to find relief that lasts?? 

It's the same reason I talk about all the time in regards to hypothyroidism... we aren't getting to the root of the problem. 

We're masking symptoms, playing in the shallow end of treatment, never digging deep enough to pull up the problem by its root...

Last week I started sharing the best biohacks for women (because we are not just small men and what we need to thrive looks very different from cold plunges and not eating 'til noon).

They were my takeaways from the Health Optimization Summit where I got to chat with some of the most intelligent, forward-thinking hormone experts in the world. 

Didn't catch part one? Click here to listen (trust me you don't want to skip it). 

Been there done that? Let's jump into the second half of my list...
