Functional Medicine Research with Dr. Nikolas Hedberg, DC
Dr. Izabella Wentz Interview
In this exciting interview on The Dr. Hedberg Show, I interviewed Dr. Izabella Wentz. We had a great conversation and covered some very practical information that everyone can use right away.
Here are the topics we covered in the interview:
How did you become interested in the thyroid?
What are some of the common root causes of Hashimoto’s?
You’ve now worked with over a thousand people with Hashimoto’s and figured out that you can accelerate healing and symptom reduction within one to two weeks, even for people who have been suffering for years. How do you do that?
Is there a particular diet that you recommend that is better for people with Hashimoto’s?
How big of an effect do you feel that food sensitivities play in not only developing Hashimoto’s, but also in hindering remission?
Stress can negatively affect your adrenals. What are some coping mechanisms that people can use so that stress doesn’t compromise their health?
Can you talk about the gut and thyroid connection?
Are there supplements that would benefit most people with Hashimoto’s?
What role does trauma and stress play in Hashimoto’s?
Is it possible to get Hashimoto’s into remission?
Can thyroid tissue regenerate after it’s been damaged by the immune system?
Where can people get more information on your work?
