Dr. Osansky breaks down the differences between Hashimoto’s and Graves’, reveals why adrenal testing and lifestyle habits matter, and shares his approach to supplementing with selenium, vitamin D, and omega-3s. Plus, they take a deep dive into how chlorine, fluoride, and even plastic water bottles can disrupt thyroid function—and what to do about it.
