When hormones are not in their free form, they travel through the bloodstream while bound to a protein.

Thyroid binding globulin (TBG) is one such protein. It binds to the thyroid hormones thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3). Essentially, TBG ensures that these hormones reach their intended destination.

Today, I’m sharing the role of TBG, the various factors that can influence its levels, methods for measuring these binding proteins, and strategies to help you bring your TBG levels back to normal.

In this episode, you’ll learn about:
- The role of thyroid binding globulin in the body
- Factors that increase and decrease thyroid binding globulin levels
- How and when to measure thyroid binding globulin
- What you can do to normalize thyroid binding globulin levels


As always, I hope you find this episode valuable, and I look forward to catching you in the next episode!

“Peptides have helped a lot of patients who were feeling stuck to get to that extra 10% of wellness.” - Dr. Jen Pfleghaar

Peptides are chains of around four to fifty amino acids that work with your body, turning on and off genes. Our bodies naturally produce several peptides, like insulin and oxytocin, and because of how they work, they are mostly considered to be quite safe. Lately, peptides have become popular within the biohacking community because of their wide range of applications and relative safety compared to conventional medications.

Today I’m excited to be joined by Dr. Jen Pfleghaar to talk about the benefits of peptides and how they can benefit those with thyroid and autoimmune conditions. Dr. Jen Pfleghaar is a double board-certified physician in Integrative Medicine and Emergency Medicine. She is very passionate about helping patients with chronic disease and teaching them to let the body heal itself.

In this conversation, Dr. Jen and I discuss the role of peptides in thyroid health, benefits for autoimmune conditions, the use of specific peptides for managing inflammation and supporting patients with mold exposure and stealth infections, how peptides can be a part of your stress management strategy, the importance of high-quality sourcing for peptides, broader implications for health and longevity, and more. Enjoy the episode!

With the widespread use of mercury amalgam fillings in the past and conventional dentists' use of root canals, it doesn’t come as a surprise that many people have silver fillings, root canals, or both.

Our oral health is closely tied to our overall health and mercury fillings and root canals can be potential sources of stress for the immune system. While some patients have improved their health without removing these, I believe we should remove them or avoid them if possible.

Today, I’m sharing why I recommend working with a biological dentist and how silver fillings and root canals can impact your thyroid healing journey.

In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Why I recommend that everyone remove their mercury amalgam fillings
- Testing methods to identify whether you’re having an immune reaction to silver fillings
- The controversy around root canals
- Why I choose to do an extraction and implant instead of a root canal
- Benefits of seeing a biological dentist



As always, I hope you find this episode valuable, and I look forward to catching you in the next episode!
