Oral health has been shown to play a significant role in overall health and thyroid health. Thyroid conditions have also been shown to impact oral health, and in my experience working with people with thyroid and autoimmune thyroid conditions, I’ve seen an increase in dental cavities, especially among patients with hyperthyroidism.

Today, I’m sharing what research shows about how thyroid conditions affect oral health. In this episode, you’ll learn about:

- What I’ve seen in my practice when it comes to oral health and hyperthyroidism
- Why it’s essential to work with a dentist familiar with the thyroid and an endocrinologist familiar with oral manifestations of thyroid disorders
- Common oral manifestations of thyroid disorders
- Dental management of hypo- and hyperthyroidism
- How thyroid dysfunction can impact oral health status
- The association between cavities and autoimmune thyroid disease


As always, I hope you find this episode valuable, and I look forward to catching you in the next episode!

“Heart attacks are optional, and strokes are stoppable.” - Dr. Ellie Campbell

Thyroid health has a complex relationship with blood pressure. Despite common misconceptions, blood pressure issues can arise in both those with hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism. The good news is that by working on the underlying root causes of thyroid conditions and strengthening the foundation of your health, you will often also see improvements in blood pressure.

Today, I’m excited to be joined by Dr. Ellie Campbell to take a deep dive into all things blood pressure. Dr. Campbell is a native Chicagoan and a graduate of the University of Illinois, the Kirksville College of Osteopathic Medicine, and the Medical College of Georgia. Board-certified in Family Medicine for 30 years, she also holds certification from the American Board of Integrative Medicine. Dr. Campbell is a solo physician with specialty interests in interdisciplinary collaboration, Functional Medicine, reversing chronic disease, cardiovascular disease prevention, natural treatments for high blood pressure, and the many oral-systemic connections. She also enjoys live theater, gardening, healthy cooking, hiking, travel, and playtime with her husband and three adult daughters.

In this conversation, Dr. Campbell and I discuss her inspiration for writing The Blood Pressure BluePrint, the connection between blood pressure, oral health, and thyroid function, insights into proper blood pressure measurement, the importance of holistic approaches in healthcare, supplements that can help with managing blood pressure, and more. Enjoy the episode!

Often, we’ll see an increase in thyroid hormones in those with Graves’ disease. This is due to thyroid stimulating immunoglobulins (TSI), a type of TSH receptor antibody that binds to the TSH receptors and causes the thyroid gland to release an excessive amount of thyroid hormone.

For some people on the healing journey, TSI and thyroid hormone levels decrease simultaneously. However, this isn’t always the case. Today, I’m sharing why you might find thyroid hormone levels increasing despite decreasing TSI.

In this episode, you’ll learn about:
- Causes of increased thyroid hormone levels in those with Graves' disease
- The relationship between TSI and thyroid hormone production
- What it can mean when thyroid hormone decreases while TSI increases
- Why it’s crucial to find and treat the underlying causes
- How elevated TSI levels can trigger a more vigorous immune response
- Lab reference ranges for TSI
- When to be concerned about fluctuations in thyroid hormones and TSI
- How often to test TSI and thyroid hormone levels


As always, I hope you find this episode valuable, and I look forward to catching you in the next episode!
