Struggling with Hashimoto’s?

Discover the Root Causes and Transform Your Health Today.

Living with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis can feel like an uphill battle. From unrelenting fatigue to unexplained weight gain, hair loss, uncomfortable GI issues like bloating, IBS symptoms, constipation and stubborn skin issues, like acne and dry skin, the symptoms often persist even when lab results appear “normal.” This is where functional medicine shines—by identifying and addressing the root causes behind chronic conditions. My client’s testimonial exemplifies how this transformative approach not only reduced her thyroid antibodies but also boosted her immunity, improved digestion, eliminated GI symptoms and transformed her skin health.

Years of Struggle with No Relief from Medications

For years, my client’s battled symptoms of Hashimoto’s, including debilitating fatigue, digestive issues, brain fog, hair loss, frequent illness (even in the summer months) and weight gain. Despite consulting numerous doctors and adhering to thyroid medications, her symptoms persisted with little to no relief. Conventional treatments focused solely on managing her thyroid hormone levels, leaving the underlying issues unresolved. Frustrated and skeptical about alternative approaches, she sought out my functional medicine program as a last hope.

Remarkably, within just three months of starting my functional medicine program that I tailored to her specific condition and needs, she began feeling vibrant and energized, her thyroid antibodies dropped by more than 50%!!! For the first time in years, she experienced true relief as her symptoms disappeared, her energy returned, and her body started to heal itself. This transformation speaks volumes about the power of addressing root-causes rather than masking symptoms.

Viral Infections in Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis

Viral infections like Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV), Cytomegalovirus, and others have been linked to the initiation and/or exacerbation of autoimmune thyroid disease and are common in people with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis.

In my client’s case, a weakened immune function that was perpetuated by poor sleep and insomnia created the perfect storm for Hashimoto’s to thrive. This weakened immunity not only allowed potential viral triggers to take hold but also hindered the body’s ability to regulate inflammation and heal effectively.

One of the standout aspects of my functional medicine approach in effectively countering viral activation was identifying and reversing the root-causes that contributed to this client’s weakened immune system as well as poor sleep and supporting her biochemistry with the pharmaceutical-grade supplements.

How Hashimoto’s Contributes to Digestive Problems

Hashimoto’s thyroiditis doesn’t only impact the thyroid; it can also wreak havoc on digestive health. Reduced thyroid hormone levels slow down metabolic processes, leading to common symptoms like constipation and bloating. Studies show that people with Hashimoto’s experience dysbiosis, an imbalance in gut bacteria that can cause IBS-like symptoms, such as gas, diarrhea, constipation and abdominal discomfort.

In my client’s case, constipation and bloating were daily struggles, exacerbating her fatigue and sense of discomfort. My Functional Medicine Program addressed these symptoms comprehensively by balancing her gut microbiome, supporting digestive enzymes, and introducing targeted probiotics. By restoring harmony in the digestive tract, these issues were completely resolved—allowing her to regain both comfort and confidence.

Healing the Leaky Gut to Prevent Autoimmune Activation

A crucial element of this client’s recovery was addressing leaky gut, a condition where the intestinal lining becomes leaky or permeable, allowing toxins, undigested food particles, and pathogens to enter the bloodstream. This triggers systemic inflammation and dysregulates the immune system, opening the door to autoimmune conditions like Hashimoto’s.

The Wheat Zoomer panel assesses sensitivity to wheat, autoimmune disease, and intestinal barrier stability. If you suspect you have wheat sensitivity, multiple food sensitivities, intestinal permeability, autoimmune disorders, or chronic inflammation, you may benefit from this panel.

Through gut-healing protocols that included ingredients like glutamine and aloe, we focused on repairing her intestinal lining. Healing the gut not only reduced inflammation but also prevented the immune system from being hyper-vigilant. This was a pivotal step in calming her thyroid autoimmunity and reducing her antibodies by over 50%.

Uncovering Food Sensitivities to Reduce Immune Dysregulation

Food sensitivities can be silent, unknown contributors to autoimmune conditions and systemic inflammation, perpetuating chronic inflammation and immune dysregulation. As part of the program, I conducted a comprehensive food sensitivity panel, identifying inflammatory triggers specific to this client that were eliminated.

The results were profound. Eliminating her food sensitivities not only eased her digestive symptoms, contributed to weight loss, increased energy but also reduced the immune system’s hyper-vigilance and systemic inflammation. By removing inflammatory triggers, this client’s body could finally begin to heal—and the results were apparent in her vitality.

The Food Sensitivity Complete panel assesses sensitivity to 209 common foods in the Western diet and food additives such as preservatives, artificial sweeteners, emulsifiers, food dyes, and pesticides, which can cause chronic inflammation and increased intestinal permeability (leaky gut). If you are diagnosed with or suspect intestinal permeability, autoimmune disorders, or chronic inflammation you may benefit from this panel.

Addressing Toxins That Contribute To Hashimoto’s and Chronic Symptoms

Environmental toxins play a significant role in autoimmune diseases by contributing to leaky gut, systemic inflammation and immune dysregulation. My client underwent Total Tox Burden Test, revealing high levels of phthalates, BPA, and mycotoxins—all of which increase the risk of Hashimoto’s. These toxins also disrupt hormone balance, promote weight gain, and contribute to brain fog, all of which were challenges for this client.

Toxic exposure is a reality of our daily lives, but toxic overload can stress our bodily systems and manifest in various ways. Toxins can lead to elevated oxidative stress and increase demand on the body’s detoxification pathways, particularly in the liver. When the liver can’t adequately eliminate toxins or infectious byproducts, these toxins can clog up normal detox pathways and lead to a range of chronic inflammation symptoms. If you’re experiencing multiple chronic symptoms and can’t lose weight despite diet and exercise, you could be carrying a high toxic burden.

By introducing detoxification strategies that supported her liver, gut health as well as 3 phases of detoxification that are essential in eliminating these fat-soluble toxins, I helped my client safely eliminate these toxins. The impact was clear: my client’s brain fog lifted, she finally started losing weight, she regained her energy, her immune health stabilized which eliminated her frequent illnesses, enabling her to achieve lasting relief from Hashimoto’s symptoms.

Client’s Review: A Life-Changing Testimony

“ I cannot put into words how grateful I am for Natalie and the life-changing care I received via her functional medicine program. Prior to starting the program, I had been diagnosed with Hashimoto’s and was feeling the debilitating effects of hypothyroidism even while on medication and with normal TSH. At first I was pretty skeptical when I first considered functional medicine, but from the moment I started working with Natalie, everything changed.

Her approach was holistic, compassionate, and empowering. She didn’t just treat my symptoms – she got to the root of the issues I had been battling for so long and took extra time out of her day to make sure I was educated on every single lab test, supplement, and biochemical process. I was also very nervous about taking new supplements, so Natalie introduced them to me at a slower pace out of respect for my apprehension. It wasn’t until I went a week or two without taking some of the supplements that I realized how much they were improving my health and making me feel normal again. It was a clear reminder to trust the process. 

By the end of the program, my thyroid antibodies decreased by more than half, my stomach issues disappeared, I got my energy back, I stopped getting colds every month, and my friends and family started to notice that my complexion looked brighter. I also lost all of the weight I had gained as a result of my Hashi’s/hypo diagnosis. 

I feel like a totally new person and I only wish I had reached out to Natalie sooner. If you’re feeling stuck or skeptical like I was, don’t wait!” – Allegra

A Holistic Journey to Vibrancy, Wellness and Naturally Youthful-Looking Skin

No matter your diagnosis or condition—whether it’s an autoimmune condition, joint pain, low energy, hair loss, acid reflux, gastrointestinal issues, depression, osteoporosis, weight gain, inability to lose weight or infertility—there are always root causes driving your imbalances. As a functional medicine practitioner, I specialize in identifying and addressing these root causes to reverse the imbalances and dysfunctions that contribute to chronic conditions and dis-ease dynamics.

Functional medicine’s beauty lies in its interconnected approach. By addressing nutrient deficiencies, leaky gut, food sensitivities, and environmental toxins, I not only reversed my client’s Hashimoto’s symptoms but also empowered her to achieve vibrant health. The ripple effects—improved immunity, brighter skin, effective weight loss and sustained energy—are proof of what’s possible with personalized care.

One of the most remarkable outcomes of this client’s journey was the significant reduction in her thyroid antibodies—over 50%—within just three months of following my functional medicine program. This was particularly profound because, despite seeing numerous conventional medicine doctors and taking thyroid medications for several years, her symptoms persisted, and her thyroid antibodies remained high. Conventional approaches offered no solutions to address the underlying root causes of her condition. Yet, in just three months, we achieved what years of conventional treatment could not.

Equally impressive was the transformation of her skin. While she had used high-quality skincare products like Environ before starting the program, she didn’t experience true skin transformation until we addressed the internal factors affecting her skin health. By supporting her endocrine system, thyroid function, detoxification pathways, digestion, cellular metabolism, and immune system, her skin began to glow with radiance. The skin is highly metabolically active and it’s health is dependent on all of these systems. Therefore the skin reflects the state of these interconnected systems, making it a true mirror of wellness or dis-ease. She now looks and feels years younger, without the need for fillers or injectables.

Although her antibodies remain slightly elevated, she is now firmly on the path to healing. Through this program, she has learned how to support her biochemistry with tailored dietary changes, lifestyle adjustments, and ongoing supplementation. The pharmaceutical-grade supplements she continues to take are specifically designed to support her immune and detoxification system, gut and thyroid health, cellular respiration, reduce inflammation, and promote further reversal of her Hashimoto’s thyroiditis.

This progress is a powerful testament to the body’s ability to heal when given the right support. By addressing the root causes and equipping the body with what it needs to thrive, we can unlock vibrant health, radiant skin, and a renewed sense of well-being.

If you’re not feeling like yourself, don’t wait for a diagnosis. Conventional medicine often overlooks the early dynamics of imbalances or even dis-ease dynamics (most common being insulin resistance and subclinical hypothyroidism), as lab ranges are broad and miss imbalances that could be corrected before they progress. Functional medicine focuses on prevention and restoring balance before it’s too late.

Having helped countless clients reverse chronic symptoms, inflammation and autoimmune conditions, I am constantly in awe of how resilient and capable the human body is at healing when given the right support. My personalized program lasts only three months, and with full commitment, the results are truly transformative.

Are You Ready to Feel Vibrant This Winter?

This winter, sickness seems to be everywhere. From colds to the flu, many are struggling just to stay healthy. Would you like to break free from the cycle of constant illness and embrace vibrant, resilient health—just like my client Allegra?

After completing the functional medicine program, Allegra shared that it felt strange and amazing not to get sick anymore. She used to fall ill every month, with her body feeling weak and drained for an entire week. Frequent illness had been one of the contributors to her Hashimoto’s, as each infection further dysregulated her immune system, driving her autoimmune condition. Now, she enjoys an incredible sense of wellness and vitality, free from the constant interruptions of being unwell.

Clients who complete my functional medicine program are pleasantly surprised by this transformation. They marvel at how their immune systems become so robust that they no longer get sick. It’s an incredible feeling—not only because sickness is unpleasant, but because it disrupts everything. When we’re sick, we can’t function at our best, whether it’s at work, at home, or in pursuing the things we love.

Imagine waking up every day feeling vibrant, energized, and ready to tackle life head-on. That can be your reality.

Don’t wait any longer. Sign up for our life-transforming Functional Medicine Program today and discover what’s possible for your health. Your journey to vitality starts now.
