79. Thyroid Hormones: The Basics and How to look at your labs even after the doctor says "everything looks normal"
Hey Friend,
Have you ever left the doctor’s office feeling dismissed? You’re exhausted, gaining weight, battling brain fog—but your labs are "fine," so they send you on your way.
But here’s the truth: Just because something is “normal” doesn’t mean it’s optimal.
In this episode of Functional Medicine for Christian Women, we’re diving into:
✅ The 4 key thyroid markers you MUST check beyond TSH
✅ Why conventional lab ranges miss early thyroid dysfunction
✅ How to read your labs through a functional health lens
✅ Simple steps to start healing your thyroid naturally
If you’ve been told “everything looks normal,” but you know something is off, this episode is for you.
In health,
Lacy Lain, FMCHC, LEHP
