81. Your Broken Thyroid CAN be Fixed with Elle Russ

There's colourful language in this episode so please wear headphones if needed! This week's special guest is Elle Russ, a bestselling author, writer, course creator and the leading authority on thyroid health. Elle overcame her own hypothyroid disease, when some of the best doctors in Los Angeles couldn’t help her. During a ten year struggle with over 30 debilitating symptoms, she took her health into her own hands and went against the mainstream medical approach by ordering her own lab tests and sourcing her own medication. She's now symptom free and says everyone with hypothyroid can be symptom free as well, yes everyone! Elle's book The Paleo Thyroid Solution is one of the most powerful books I've read on thyroid health. It's relatable and packed full of content and specific advice for anyone who struggles with hypothyroid or thinks they may have it.
