Heart Rate Spikes, Bloating, and Fatigue with Graves' Disease

Even a good protocol can stall progress if key pieces are missing.In this Health Audit session, I speak with Jordan, who was recently diagnosed with Graves’ disease. She opens up about managing symptoms like heart palpitations, bloating, and fatigue while following the AIP diet and taking calming herbs, iodine, and other targeted supplements. We explore why her progress has felt inconsistent, how post-viral recovery might be playing a role, and why “normal” labs don’t always tell the whole story about what's happening in your body.If you’re navigating Graves’ and wondering why your protocol isn’t delivering the clear results you’re hoping for, this episode will help you see the bigger picture. Tune in to discover what might be missing from your approach! Episode Timeline: 00:13 – Introducing Jordan and Her Graves’ Diagnosis00:59 – A Family History of Thyroid Issues01:22 – How Jordan Found Dr. Eric01:50 – Learning Through Books and Deep Research02:17 – From Concussion to Diagnosis02:54 – Starting the AIP Diet03:20 – Heart Symptoms and Stomach Issues Continue03:53 – Lifelong Digestive Symptoms04:19 – No Testing, Just Assumptions04:41 – Treating SIBO with Herbs05:39 – Is It the AIP or the Supplements?06:20 – Challenges with Diagnosing SIBO Without Testing08:18 – A Practitioner Who Doesn’t Test at All09:07 – Supplements to Calm the Thyroid09:29 – When to Retest Thyroid Labs?10:20 – Managing Heart Symptoms Naturally12:21 – Resting Heart Rate and Extreme Spikes13:37 – Post-Flu Setbacks14:32 – Recovery Takes Time15:47 – When to Consider Retesting Thyroid Panels17:49 – A Full Supplement Stack18:58 – Iodine and Graves: The Controversy20:30 – Brazil Nuts vs. Selenium Supplements22:56 – Is This Approach Working?23:13 – What’s Missing from This Protocol?25:30 – AIP, SIBO, and Low FODMAP Strategy26:17 – Final Thoughts and EncouragementFree resources for your thyroid healthGet your FREE Thyroid and Immune Health Restoration Action Points Checklist at SaveMyThyroidChecklist.comHigh-Quality Nutritional Supplements For Hyperthyroidism and Hashimoto’sHave you checked out my new ThyroSave supplement line?
