Still listening, but I have a friend who has Hashimoto’s and she takes medication, I found it interesting her doctor told her absolutely not to have the vaccine for Covid because that could really make things worse and I’m thinking how fortunate was she that she had a doctor that was willing to do the right thing for their patient and not fear the politicization of that whole ugly mess!

If I may suggest……the solution is not an air purifier (although it helps).
The solution is having our government stop polluting our food and our air. Now that’s a deep deep rabbit hole that most will not go down.

This was wonderful! Thank you. May I suggest an eye expert for a future topic. The eyes/ vision start to age in the 40’s/ 50’s and some serious problems like macular degeneration can be prevented because if you do get it, there is no cure and it causes blindness.

I had no idea that thyroid was so complex! Makes sense though because I firmly believe that the body is entirely interelated and holistic treatment is the answer-- not just more pills! The most encouraging part to me is what Dr Heather said that the body is "self-healing"! Treat it right and you will reap the reward.... from a 69 year old Nana :)

Definitely a lifestyle change! Once you correct what you’re consuming, the inflammation will stop and the weight will drop. It is a very slow process! I’m over year in and feel like a totally different person now. If you don’t go in weight minded, you won’t be disappointed. I’m very pleased with my progress! I felt like it was a life or death situation for me. I made the right choice!! My goal was being around to spend time with my family, friends and granddaughter who will be born in December!

Dominique…the ads are over the top! You’re making a lot just working and I love your content. The ads are just too much.

[ppia]

Ugh! Love Dominique however I can’t watch her videos anymore due to excessive ads! Thank you for everything Dominique and good luck in the future.❤

This episode really speaks to me!! I was just telling my husband yesterday, that I would love to find a functional medicine doctor.

[andiirish]

This discussion was so valuable to me. Thank you! Please, please have this doctor back 😊

I am not a Podcasts Fan But this was the best podcast ever - many thanks D !

[joannepigliavento]

I’m curious what the doctors opinion is of screening mammograms and radiation safety.

[samc]

Such an interesting topic, particularly around the fact that symptoms of different things are the same. In 2022 I started with many symptoms, brain fog, fatigue, etc. and put it down to perimenopause. I never considered thyroid, mostly because I didn't know that this was a possibility.
In the December I found a lump in my breast, and in January 2023 I was diagnosed directly to Stage 4, Metastatic Breast Cancer. This shows again that so many symptoms that can point at one, or even two different things, can actually point at MANY options.
It seems that thyroid, as the driver of the body, is a great place to start, but that we need a full look, and as Dr Heather said, a comprehensive assessment with custom plans

Fantastic guest! I learned so much and will begin to implement the things that I learned into my life. Many thanks! 💜

Hi Dominique - I've been diagnosed with hyperthyroidism and I was prescribed levothyroxine (synthroid). When I'm prescribed new medicines, I always do my research and what I found out was that this medicine that's suppose to improve hair growth causes hair loss to get worse, so I refused to continue levothyroxine and chose to use alternative remedies. As far as weight loss, I eat nuts, fruit, salads, homemade soups, and for meat protein, I eat bison, chicken, and yes, on occasion, even baked pork rinds. lol I lovvvve baked pork rinds lol For beverages, I drink purified water, purified water with apple cider vinegar and honey and aloe vera juice with cranberry juice ( w/ no added sugar ) For a vitamin supplement, I'm taking vitamin D3 that was prescribed by my doctor. My weight loss went from 250 lbs to 237 lbs and then this month (in September) I reached 236 lbs. My next weight - in. is in October. ( I check my weight the second week of every month.)

Thanks for having Dr. Stone. I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism, they tested T3 T4, about 3 years ago.

[kristinam]

I would like to ask Dr. Stone, if 90-95% of hypothyroid cases are Hashimoto’s, why traditional medicine does not routinely screen us for anti-thyroid antibodies?

[christinebarone]

Diagnosed with hashimotos several years ago. I’m on synthroid and my numbers are normal and I feel much better plus lost the extra 5 lbs.

[Nangoob]

Our bodies will die no matter what we do or don’t do. You can’t prevent death. I live a fairly healthy life, but life is short and there is much to enjoy. I see very little good about living into the 90s.

[cherylsoderstrom]

I enjoyed this so much. I've got problems that I know this will help where my other medical journey hasn't got me healthy. Thank you so much.

Good to see you this Monday afternoon. Functional Medicine is so important. Thank you for bringing this information to us.
