Ep. 219: Beyond the Normal Range: Achieving Optimal Thyroid Health

Ep. 219: Beyond the Normal Range: Achieving Optimal Thyroid Health

Did you know that a "normal" thyroid lab result might not be optimal for you? In this eye-opening episode, we dive into why feeling your best doesn’t always line up with being “within range.” Drawing on expert insights, we explore:


  • Why "normal" may fall short: Lab reference ranges are built on averages—not individual well-being. You may feel sluggish or symptomatic even when your numbers appear untouched.

  • What truly "optimal" levels look like for TSH, Free T3, and Free T4

  • When “normal” labs don’t line up with symptoms: We unpack why hypothyroid symptoms can persist—fatigue, cold intolerance, weight gain—even when standard labs don’t raise red flags.

  • Taking the next step toward personalized thyroid health: Learn how opting for a full thyroid panel, working with a care team, and factoring in lifestyle can be the game-changer to consistently feeling well—versus accepting “normal” as good enough.


Whether you've been told you're “normal” and still don’t feel optimal—or you’re supporting someone navigating thyroid health—this episode delivers clarity, empowerment, and actionable strategies.
