About this listen

In this episode, our founder, Dr. Jordan Robertson ND, shares a key paper in the nutritional management of Graves' disease that explains why patients experience rapid weight gain after treatment.

She discusses the metabolic rate changes that happen at diagnosis, 1 and 6 months after treatment, and how patients can be euthyroid but experience weight gain after ADT.

This episode is a snapshot of our full Graves' medical topic that supports clinicians with decision-making around supplementation, exercise and conventional treatments.

The Confident Clinician membership supports hundreds of practitioners every day in practice through our integrative medicine database and standards of care. Our membership opens twice per year, with July 2024 being our next enrolment opportunity for Naturopathic Doctors, Medical Doctors and Nurse Practitioners who practice evidence-based Integrative Medicine.
