Straight Talking Natural Health Jules Galloway

This is the first of what will be occasional episodes about common health issues we see in practice. Beware - Jules may get a little ranty/sweary at times as she goes over how to spot the symptoms, how to test, why your doctor didn’t pick it up, and what to do about it.
In this episode, she is talking about hypothyroidism and what to do if your doctor says you’re fine but you’ve still got all the symptoms. You may be feeling some of the following:
Fatigue Feeling the cold easily Dry skin Weight gain Constipation Puffiness Joint pain Muscle pain/weakness Hair loss Anxiety Depression Brain fog Memory issues Difficulty finding words Heavy periods Jules will go into the basics and limitations of thyroid testing and why the TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) test does not pick up 100% of hypothyroidism cases. She chats about which tests to do instead, how to get them done, and why seeing a Naturopath is the logical next step when you can’t find answers through the medical system.
