274// Is Iodine Deficiency behind your constipation, brain fog, weight gain, fatigue? Find out here

Iodine is the building block to healthy and happy thyroid. Without sufficient iodine, we can't build the very hormones that our thyroid gland is supposed to make - T4 and T3. So, if you have a deficiency of thyroid hormone, as is in the case of hypothyroidism - why are more doctors looking into iodine deficiency as a possible root cause behind hypothyroidism?  That is a question I'm answering on today's episode, along with the even more important questions of: if you're doctor isn't going to test you, how can YOU evaluate your own iodine levels. And secondly, if they are low, how can you safely build them up again. There's a lot of controversy around iodine, both on whether or not we even need more iodine in our diets as well as if iodine supplement is even safe. That's why, on today's episode, we're diving into: Symptoms of iodine deficiencyWhy iodine in salt is not enoughWhy iodine testing is so hardWhat tests I recommend to evaluate iodine levels3 safety measures for an iodine protocolAccess to my iodine protocol I've used with my own clients If you're dealing with hypothyroidism, bloating, constipation, brain fog, fatigue, weight gain, or hormonal symptoms like estrogen dominance, PMS, or endometriosis - then this episode is for you. TIMESTAMPS:00:00 - Introduction to Iodine and Thyroid Health 00:25 - Why Doctors Overlook Iodine Deficiency 00:35 - Evaluating Your Own Iodine Levels 00:47 - Controversies Surrounding Iodine 03:28 - Symptoms of Iodine Deficiency 05:02 - Recommended Reading on Iodine 06:27 - Challenges in Iodine Testing 09:22 - Safe Iodine Protocols 17:31 - The Role of the Liver in Thyroid Health 20:57 - Comprehensive Health Programs 31:31 - Conclusion and Final Thoughts  EPISODES MENTIONED:232// Is Sodium Deficiency Causing Your Bloating and Constipation?233// H.
