Real progress comes when we stop managing symptoms and start understanding the body’s messages. What might yours be saying?In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Erin Ellis, a naturopathic doctor whose own health journey from Non-Hodgkin lymphoma to Hashimoto’s completely reshaped how she approaches healing. We talk about her path from cancer survivor to women’s hormone specialist, and how she uncovered the deeper connections between thyroid autoimmunity, toxins, and genetic vulnerability. Dr. Ellis shares what helped her reverse Hashimoto's antibodies, the foundational steps she teaches her patients, and why true recovery often begins with something as simple as sleep, food quality, and reducing toxic load. Her story is a powerful reminder that the body can heal when we understand why it’s reacting, not just how to suppress symptoms.This conversation might help you see your symptoms in a completely new way.

What This New Graves’ Disease Study Reveals
A new study may have just changed how we think about two nutritional supplements that can benefit those with Graves’ disease.A new 2025 study looked at the combination of L-carnitine and selenium alongside methimazole and the results were more encouraging than I expected. In this episode, I walk you through what the researchers found, including how this combo may help lower thyroid antibodies, improve symptom control, and even reduce the total amount of methimazole needed. I also share my clinical perspective when these nutrients might help, what dosages were studied, and why we still need to look beyond supplements to address deeper triggers like stress, gut health, and environmental toxins.Tune in to learn what this new research could mean for your own healing path.Episode Timeline: 00:00 – Episode Preview01:14 - Podcast Intro01:38 – Graves’ Disease Study Explained04:45 – Study Design & Methods06:28 – Key Findings: Antibody Improvement08:12 – Reduced Methimazole Dosage Benefits10:05 – Study Limitations & Dosage Notes12:30 – Selenium & L-Carnitine in Practice14:48 – Other Triggers and Root Causes16:35 – Community and Support Resources18:05 – Bugleweed vs L-Carnitine20:12 – What True Remission Means21:38 – TSI vs TRAb Explained22:09 – Selenium vs LDN Comparison24:10 – Testing, Maintenance & Final ThoughtsMentioned in this episode: Check the study here: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40871722/ Free resources for your thyroid health Get your FREE Thyroid and Immune Health Restoration Action Points Checklist at SaveMyThyroidChecklist.com High-Quality Nutritional Supplements For Hyperthyroidism and Hashimoto’ s Have you checked out my new ThyroSave supplement line?

About Save My Thyroid: Healing Tips for Hyperthyroidism and Hashimoto's
If you have hyperthyroidism (Graves' disease, toxic multinodular goiter, etc.) or Hashimoto's thyroiditis and are looking to do everything to save your thyroid gland, then the Save My Thyroid podcast is for you! Dr. Eric Osansky DC, IFMCP is the host, as he personally was diagnosed with Graves' disease in 2008 and was able to get into remission taking a natural approach. He created this podcast to help others with hyperthyroidism and Hashimoto's save their thyroid and regain their health. If you have hyperthyroidism then pretty much all of the episodes will benefit you, and if you have Hashimoto's you'll benefit from most of the guest expert episodes, as well as some of the "solo" episodes. The reason there is more of a focus on hyperthyroidism is because all of the other thyroid-related podcasts focus mostly on hypothyroidism/Hashimoto's, and since Dr. Eric personally dealt with Graves' disease he wanted this podcast to focus more on hyperthyroidism, although it will still offer plenty of value to those with hypothyroidism/Hashimoto's. Dr. Eric Osansky lives in Matthews NC with his wife, 2 daughters, 3 cats, 2 dogs, and 3 guinea pigs! He has been a practitioner for 20+ years, and has focused on helping people with thyroid and autoimmune thyroid conditions since 2009.
