The Autoimmune RESET
Graves’ Disease: Root Causes and Natural Solutions with Dr. Eric Osansky
In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Eric Osansky, a functional medicine practitioner and leading voice in holistic thyroid care, to explore what really drives autoimmune thyroid conditions like Graves’ disease.
We go beyond the standard treatment model and unpack the root causes—from gut imbalances and nutrient depletions to stress, infections, and environmental triggers. Dr. Osansky shares his own personal journey with Graves’, and how that experience shaped his approach to supporting others with hyperthyroidism.
We also discuss:
- Why calming the nervous system is a vital part of thyroid recovery
- The role of gut health, food sensitivities, and nutrient status
- Functional testing tools to uncover what’s beneath the surface
- How to make empowered, informed decisions—without fear
If you’ve been told medication or radioactive iodine are your only options, this episode offers a refreshing, science-informed perspective on what's possible with the right support.
🌿 A must-listen for anyone navigating Graves’, autoimmune thyroid disease, or looking to understand the why behind their symptoms.
