1 in 5 women and 1 in 8 men have Hashimoto's in the U.S. What is it? What are potential risk factors for it? Why is it so common? What can we do to prevent it? When are medications necessary? What are natural ways to manage Hashimoto's?
We get into all of this and more in episode 45 of Mahan Health!
IN THIS EPISODE:
I interview my friend and esteemed colleague, Dr. Donna Mazzola.
Dr. Mazzola obtained her Doctorate in Pharmacy degree from Ferris State University, and continued her training by completing a residency program at the Detroit Medical Center. She spent about 10 years in clinical practice doing medication therapy management. In speaking to patients with a chronic illness she was blown away by how little they knew about managing their disease through lifestyle. This led her to pursue a master's in nutrition, which she started and then stopped, switching gears to get my MBA to align with my future goals!
But then, in 2015, it all came back around full circle when she herself was diagnosed with Hashimotos. Her diagnosis took her right back to her passion to understand how she was diagnosed with an autoimmune condition. She realized she didn't know who to trust and what was the right way to manage the disease, and so, she herself decided to become THE source! She embarked on a journey to further her education and obtain a Master's in Human Nutrition and Functional Medicine from The University of Western States.
