Your Thyroid Isn't Fine: Why TSH Doesn't Tell the Whole Story
If you’ve been told your thyroid is “fine” because one lab looks normal, this episode is going to mess with your certainty in the best way.
In this Medical Disruptors conversation, I sit down with Dr. Alan Christiansen (Dr. C), a board-certified naturopathic endocrinologist and bestselling thyroid author.
Dr. C reveals how subtle autoimmune activity often hides beneath “normal” labs, and why addressing iodine overload—not deficiency—might be the real solution for many.
We don’t just talk thyroid here—we talk agency. And once you understand the levers behind thyroid function, you’ll never look at your labs the same way again.
Let’s disrupt how thyroid health is done.
