If you’ve been told your thyroid is “fine” because one lab looks normal, this episode is going to mess with your certainty in the best way. In this Medical Disruptors conversation, I sit down with Dr. Alan Christiansen (Dr. C), a board-certified naturopathic endocrinologist and bestselling thyroid author. Dr. C reveals how subtle autoimmune activity often hides beneath “normal” labs, and why addressing iodine overload—not deficiency—might be the real solution for many.
