The topic of gut health comes up often on this show. It’s important to revisit it because for everyone with an autoimmune thyroid condition, there will be be leaky gut and other gut issues to be dealt with.
In this episode, I talk with Donna Monthei, Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and Licensed Dietitian about a range of gut health topics including:
- Donna’s personal Hashimoto’s story and then gut issue after taking 2 different antibiotics.
- The gut-thyroid and gut-autoimmunity connection.
- How to test for leaky gut and other gut issues.
- The impact of antibiotics on the gut.
- Parasites – what they are, how to know if you have one and should everyone do a parasite cleanse?
- Ways to take your thyroid meds that bypass the digestive system, where appropriate.
