About this episode
[The LOdown] The Role of Bile and the Gallbladder in Hashimotos and Hypothyroidism

Bile is a digestive fluid that plays a profound role in thyroid health. Bile is made and released from the liver but stored in the gallbladder. In this episode we explore the connection between both the gallbladder and bile with the thyroid. I share about why many women are prone to hypothyroidism and estrogen dominance after a cholecystectomy or gallbladder removal surgery and how thyroid hormones also play a role in bile flow.

A few things we chat about in this episode 👇👇👇

  • What is bile
  • How bile impacts thyroid hormone levels
  • How the thyroid impacts bile salt production
  • The benefits of bile on the gut, estrogen and thyroid levels, cholesterol and more
  • Labs that can indicate bile issues
  • My top foods and supplements for supporting bile flow
