This episode is all about thyroid problems. We dive into the solutions behind your thyroid symptoms and how to read labs.

Dr. Rebecca Warren is a Functional Wellness Practitioner and Doctor of Chiropractic who specializes in women's sex hormones, thyroid hormones, and healing after thyroidectomy.

At 19, Dr. Rebecca was diagnosed with Follicular Variant Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma and had a complete thyroidectomy with high dose radiation- all of which was completely unnecessary. But she didn't know what else to do. After having her thyroid removed, she suffered from hormone issues that Doctors would write off because all her labs looked “normal”. She suffered from depression, anxiety, weight loss resistance, and period issues with no help on how to get better. It wasn’t until she decided to draw a line in the sand that no doctor was going to know more about her body than her, did her health transformed. She has spent the past decade and a half studying the literature, implementing protocols, using the most up to date functional labs and testing, and ancestral tools (like fasting and diet variation) to not only take back her health but to help thousands of men and women to do the same.

Her goal is to help people avoid the unnecessary suffering she went through and help those that may be on a hopeless path right now.

Dr. Rebecca practices with her husband in Chattanooga, TN, and does virtual coaching worldwide. Their approach is simple but powerful: get to the cause, support the body, and trust and know that the body was created to heal itself.
