Diving into Hashimoto's with Nicole Nyerick, Integrative Dietitian
In this episode, Gianna and Nicole discuss Hashimoto's disease, an autoimmune disease that affects the thyroid gland. They clarify the misconception that Hashimoto's is the same as hypothyroidism and explain that Hashimoto's is an autoimmune disease that causes the thyroid to become dysfunctional. They discuss the rise in Hashimoto's disease and the triggers that can lead to its development, such as hormonal shifts, gut health issues, chronic stress, and genetic predisposition. The symptoms of Hashimoto's disease, including fatigue, digestive issues, and weight changes, are also explored. The hosts emphasize the importance of addressing nutritional needs, supporting detoxification pathways, and considering environmental factors when managing Hashimoto's disease. In this episode, Nicole Nyerick discusses important steps for managing Hashimoto's and supporting thyroid health. She emphasizes the importance of continuing education and seeking reliable sources of information. Nyerick also highlights the significance of supporting GI health, even if there are no obvious gastrointestinal symptoms. Lastly, she advises focusing on adequate nutrition rather than restrictive diets, emphasizing the importance of adding nutrient-rich foods to support the immune system and overall health.
