Episode 1: How The Thyroid Impacts Mental Health with Dr. Felice Gersh

Share your thoughts here! You may be wondering "what does my Thyroid have to do with mental health" but they are more connected than most people realize.  Your Thyroid as the master gland controls the rest of your hormones and impacts your mental health and emotions.  When your Thyroid levels are off you will feel either more depressed or more anxious.  Dr. Felice Gersh, an Integrative Medicine Specialist and OB/GYN joins me today to teach us about the important role the Thyroid plays in the management of our mental health.  She will also cover what tests you need to ask your doctor and address the connection between gluten and Thyroid health, as well as how the gut impacts the health of your Thyroid.  Dr. Gersh also talks about post-partum Thyroiditis and the impact of pregnancy on Thyroid health. Other topics addressed include the importance of sleep and stress management, diet and nutrition, supplements for Thyroid health, and overall hormonal balance.  Tune in to learn more!  Follow Dr. Sekandari on:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dr_nafisa_sekandariFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/dr.sekandariWatch Video Recording on YoutubeLearn more about Dr. Sekandari's 6 week online course "Transforming Anxiety" by visiting https://www.drsekandari.com/courseFollow Dr. Sekandari on:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dr_nafisa_sekandariFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/dr.sekandariWatch Video Recording on YoutubeTo learn more about Dr. Sekandari or schedule a FREE consultation visit https://www.drsekandari.com
