Today, we have the first episode of a series of AMAs with McCall McPherson.

McCall McPherson is the visionary behind Modern Thyroid Clinic, a thyroid-centered functional medicine practice in Austin, Texas. McCall is a physician assistant and thyroid expert. She is a recent TEDx speaker, a frequent guest on podcasts and summits, and the owner, host, and Chief Thyroid Hope Giver of the Thyroid Nations podcast.

Today, McCall joins me to dive into a range of listener questions, covering whether intermittent fasting damages the thyroid, the role of GLP-1s, constipation, split-dosing medication, adrenal health, ADHD, phentermine versus Glucophage versus GLP-1s, and how HRT affects thyroid medication. We also explore the impact of lipids on thyroid health and the role of nutrition, and we share our opinions on the Dutch test.

This invaluable AMA was made even more special by the flood of questions submitted by listeners.

IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN:

  • The benefits of adopting a nuanced approach to intermittent fasting

  • How Graves' disease and Hashimoto's differ in terms of fasting

  • Why fasting is not advisable when taking GLP-1s

  • Do thyroid medications cause constipation?

  • Strategies for overcoming constipation and improving gut health

  • McCall shares her rationale for splitting thyroid medication doses

  • Will progesterone increase free T4 levels?

  • The importance of rechecking thyroid labs after starting or adjusting HRT

  • Foods to avoid and include in your diet for thyroid health

  • Is the Dutch test worth using?
