Have you ever wondered why you’re still battling bloating, brain fog, weight gain, or a sluggish thyroid despite doing “all the right things”? What if the missing link isn’t your diet or thyroid meds … but a silent gut invader?
In this episode of the Paloma podcast, we dive into the astonishing world of Helicobacter pylori (“H. pylori”) — a common stomach bacterium that often flies under the radar but can quietly sabotage your digestion, hormones, metabolism, and thyroid. H. pylori isn’t just about ulcers; it may be fueling autoimmune thyroid issues, hormonal chaos during perimenopause or menopause, and that “why-won’t-my-weight-budge” frustration.
Here’s what we’ll uncover:
How H. pylori can slip quietly into your system, evade detection and trigger long-term havoc in digestion and immune function.
The surprising link between gut bacteria, your thyroid gland (hello, Hashimoto’s thyroiditis) and hormonal shifts — including nutrient malabsorption, immune activation and metabolic slowdowns.
Why treatment is more than “just antibiotics” — we’ll look at both conventional eradication strategies and integrative gut-first approaches that support digestion, thyroid and metabolic health.
A practical roadmap you can walk out of the podcast with: key signs that H. pylori might be underlying your symptoms, what tests to ask for, how the gut-hormone-thyroid triangle really works … and the next step toward rebalancing.
Whether you’re navigating thyroid autoimmunity, age-related hormonal changes, stubborn weight issues or unexplained digestive upset — this episode will give you fresh insight into a hidden driver that many health-seekers overlook.
🎧Tune in, and get ready to connect the dots between your gut, hormones, and thyroid — and take a step closer to clarity and healing!
