About the show

Thyroid or immune. Finally sorted. Your doctor gave you a pill for your thyroid. Nobody gave you a plan for your immune system. Those are two different problems, and only one of them got addressed. The Health with Hashimoto's podcast teaches you to sort everything you know about Hashimoto's into one of two buckets: thyroid function or immune function. That's the shift. Not more information. A way to use what you've already got. If you've read the books, followed the accounts, and still don't know what to do Monday morning, you don't have an information problem. You have a sorting problem. Hosted by Esther Yunkin, a registered nurse with 25 years of experience, this podcast covers what Hashimoto's actually is, why it happens, and how to work with your doctor (not against them) while you build a plan that fits a real life. What is Hashimoto's, and why does it happen How to sort what you already know into thyroid or immune, so it finally makes sense Practical lifestyle strategies, without the overwhelm How to be the CEO of your own health Grounded in science.
