Episode 206: Rebooting Your Thyroid Physiology with Dr. Justin Marchegiani In episode 206 of the Thyroid Answers Podcast, I interview Dr. Justin Marchegiani regarding his newly released book, The Thyroid Reboot. Topics covered in this episode include: Why is The Thyroid Reboot book different than others? What is driving thyroiditis and hypothyroidism? Is hypothyroidism caused by an immune system out of control or an adaptive response? The impact of stressors on driving thyroiditis and hypothyroidism Starting points for addressing hypothyroidism The role of thyroid antibodies And more... Dr. Justin Marchegiani began his medical career at the University of Massachusetts, where he was initially drawn to the surgical field. This early experience gave him a firsthand look at both the capabilities and limitations of the traditional healthcare system. While he appreciated its effectiveness in treating acute injuries and trauma, he also saw a gap in its approach to chronic illnesses like diabetes, heart disease, and obesity.

TS Episode 12: The Real Reason Your Thyroid Medication Isn't Working If you're taking thyroid medication but still struggling with fatigue, brain fog, and weight gain despite "perfect" lab results, this episode will change everything. Dr. Eric Balcavage reveals why millions of thyroid patients are stuck in "Thyroid Purgatory" - where labs look optimal but symptoms persist - and introduces the groundbreaking concept of cellular hypothyroidism that explains why your cells may be rejecting the thyroid hormones you're taking.

Shorts Episode 7: The Thyroid - GLP-1 Trap 06/03/2025

Shorts Episode 7: The Thyroid - GLP-1 Trap In Episode 7 of the Thyroid Answers Shorts hypothyroidism podcast, Dr. Eric covers the Thyroid Hormone - GLP-1 Trap. Are you struggling with weight gain, blood sugar issues, severe constipation, and crushing fatigue despite having "optimized" thyroid labs? You might be caught in the GLP-1 trap. In this eye-opening episode, Dr. Eric Balcavage reveals the dangerous cascade that occurs when we override the body's protective mechanisms with thyroid medications and GLP-1 drugs. What You'll Learn: How GLP-1 (the body's natural metabolic coordinator) depends on proper thyroid function Why thyroid allostasis is protective, not pathological The metabolic mismatch created when forcing "optimal" labs during cellular stress How T4 and T3 medications can worsen GLP-1 signaling in allostatic states Why combining thyroid "optimization" with GLP-1 drugs creates a perfect metabolic storm The shocking truth about where your body gets glucose when both sources are blocked Warning signs you're trapped in this dangerous cycle Key Timestamps: 0:00 - Introduction: The Thyroid - GLP-1 Trap 1:58 - What is GLP-1 and how it regulates metabolism 4:06 - How T3 supports GLP-1 production in homeostasis 6:58 - Thyroid allostasis: Your body's protective response 10:08 - Why "optimized" thyroid labs don't fix the problem 13:24 - The metabolic trap: Where does glucose come from? 16:03 - Warning signs you're caught in this cycle 17:04 - The solution: Addressing root causes, not forcing optimization Key Insight: When GLP-1 medications block glucose intake and production in someone with thyroid allostasis (who can't efficiently burn fat or produce ketones), the body turns to muscle catabolism and inefficient metabolic pathways, leading to muscle wasting and worsening fatigue despite "better" labs. This episode challenges both conventional and functional medicine approaches, showing why restoration trumps optimization every time. Perfect for: Anyone on thyroid medication not working as expected, those with hypothyroidism considering GLP-1 medications, functional medicine thyroid patients, and practitioners who want to understand the deeper metabolic connections. Remember: Your body isn't broken - it's adapting to protect you. The solution isn't to override these mechanisms, but to address what's driving your body into this protective state. www.drericbalcavage.com /episode/index/show/thyroidanswerspodcast/id/36769175
