671. The Truth About Your Gut and Thyroid That No One Told You

Gut health is about far more than bloating and constipation. In this episode, I’m joined by Laura Frontiero to unpack the overlooked ways gut dysfunction can show up, from fatigue and brain fog to skin issues, joint pain, sleep problems, and thyroid challenges. We also talk about why common gut protocols don’t always work and why the order in which you address gut health matters. We connect the dots between the gut, thyroid function, nutrient absorption, hormone clearance, toxins, infections, and chronic stress. Laura also breaks down the four areas she looks at when working with gut health and why supporting the body before jumping into probiotics or other protocols can make such a difference. What you’ll learn: Why gut problems don't always cause digestive symptoms Why probiotics aren't always the best place to start How gut health and thyroid function influence each other The connection between toxins and nutrient deficiencies What chronic stress has to do with gut restoration Why digestion and stomach acid matter for thyroid health How hormone clearance is connected to the gut Why the order of your approach matters Tune in to learn how to recognize the less obvious signs of gut dysfunction, understand the connection between your gut and thyroid, and rethink the way you approach gut health.
