Ep. 282 Thyroid Health: Hormones, Medications & Weight Loss with McCall McPherson

Today, I have the privilege of connecting with an exceptional friend and colleague, McCall McPherson! McCall’s profound expertise in thyroid health has paved the way for a revolutionary approach to functional medicine. As the visionary behind the cutting-edge Modern Thyroid Clinic in Austin, Texas, and a former TEDx speaker, she joins me to discuss the intricate differences between Grave’s Disease and Hashimoto's. In this episode, we also delve into the unique treatment methods of the Modern Thyroid Clinic and the crucial role of comprehensive lab work support. Our conversation ventures into disordered eating, the detrimental effects of yo-yo dieting, and the starvation diet mentality, emphasizing the significance of metabolic potency. We also explore the impact of synthetic oral contraceptives, the importance of informed consent in hormone resets, and the merits of hormone replacement therapy. My discussion with McCall encompasses a wide range of strategies that include the utilization of low-dose Naltrexone, GLP-one agonists, fasting techniques, and the pervasive effects of fear-driven food restrictions and weight loss resistance. Join me as I share our enlightening conversation that promises to leave you informed and inspired! IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: What is Grave’s Disease, and how is it treated? What are the symptoms of Grave’s Disease? What they do at the Modern Thyroid Clinic to reduce Grave’s antibodies. How Naltrexone acts in the body, and what it does for thyroid patients. McCall discusses the supplements she uses for thyroid and explains why she will not use compounded thyroid medication. How disordered eating has crept into the intermittent fasting space. How the hormonal shifts during perimenopause can lead to weight gain. Why is it essential to allow blood sugar to drop, retrain itself, and tap into your fat stores? McCall discusses the labs she prefers using for individuals with some degree of weight loss resistance or presumed metabolic inflexibility. What is the net impact of oral contraceptives? Some common reasons for women becoming weight loss resistant. McCall shares her perspective on iodine.
