Unmasking Thyroid Dysfunction: Optimize Longevity, Mood, & Metabolism l Dr. Amie Hornaman l Ep #437

🔹 About This Episode:

Could your fatigue, weight gain, brain fog, poor sleep, and low mood actually be caused by an undiagnosed thyroid issue? In this episode, I sit down with thyroid expert Dr. Amie Hornaman to uncover why so many people are told their thyroid labs are “normal” despite ongoing symptoms. We break down hypothyroidism, Hashimoto’s, T3 vs. T4, reverse T3, T2, and why the outdated TSH-only model may be missing the bigger picture.
We also explore thyroid health’s connection to metabolism, longevity, mitochondrial function, menopause, GLP-1 medications, hormone balance, and personalized medicine. If you’ve been struggling with unexplained symptoms and want a deeper understanding of thyroid optimization, this episode is packed with practical insights and myth-busting science.

🔹 What you will learn:

* Why thyroid dysfunction is often missed—even when your labs look “normal”
* The connection between thyroid health, metabolism, brain fog, mood, and longevity
