In this fertility-meets-thyroid revelation episode, I sit down with Risa Groux — functional nutritionist and thyroid specialist — to expose why your "underachieving" thyroid might actually be screaming for help and how the most common gene mutation (that 90% of us have) could be sabotaging your health.

From revealing how she reversed Hashimoto's with a shocking dental discovery to explaining why your doctor's thyroid prescription might be making you worse, Risa drops serious truth bombs about root causes that conventional medicine completely ignores.

Whether you're struggling with unexplained weight gain, recurring miscarriages, chronic fatigue, or have been told your thyroid is "fine" despite feeling terrible, this conversation will revolutionize how you approach thyroid health and show you there's hope beyond synthetic medications.

What we cover: ✔️ The MTHFR revelation: why 90% of us can't process B vitamins properly ✔️ Miscarriage mysteries: the nutrient deficiencies hiding behind pregnancy loss ✔️ Why folic acid (in most prenatals) might actually increase cancer risk ✔️ The T4-only medication scandal: why Synthroid fails most people ✔️ Hashimoto's reversal: how a 23-year-old dental infection was the missing piece ✔️ Heavy metal poisoning from "healthy" tuna consumption ✔️ Endocrine disruptor epidemic: from BPA cans to golf course chemicals ✔️ Why your swimming routine might be destroying your thyroid ✔️ The exercise paradox: why marathon training can wreck thyroid function ✔️ Natural vs. synthetic hormones: the desiccated thyroid controversy ✔️ Detox done right: liver support for conception and beyond

Risa doesn't just treat symptoms — she proves that with proper testing and root cause investigation, even "permanent" thyroid conditions can be reversed naturally.
