- Happy Tuesday Heal Squad! Today we are welcoming back functional medicine physician Dr. Amy Myers for an incredible 2 part interview that will leave you ready to take charge of your health once and for all. In this episode, Dr. Amy Myers delves into a range of important health topics that disproportionately affect women. From the often-overlooked link between thyroid issues and digestive problems like SIBO to the hormonal shifts of perimenopause that can trigger autoimmune conditions, Dr. Myers shares crucial insights into our medical system. She also emphasizes the importance of self-advocacy, pointing out how doctors may mistakenly dismiss women's symptoms, and provides guidance on navigating tricky imaging tests like mammograms, MRIs, and alternatives that expose patients to less radiation. Trust us when we say, you will leave our conversation with a deeper understanding of how to take a proactive, comprehensive approach to your health and wellbeing.
Healers and Heal Liners:
One of the main causes for more autoimmunity in women than men is due to fluctuations in their hormones - specifically with estrogen.
If you have one autoimmune condition you are three times more likely to get another one.
Having one mammogram gives the radiation equivalent of 100 X-rays.
Melatonin at low doses makes you tired, but at high doses can prevent metastasis and inflammation.
A few alternatives to mammograms include Thermograms, QT scans, and blood tests to check for circulating tumor cells.

Maria, I stumbled on your podcast recently on RUclips and am hooked. I listen to a LOT of podcasts, and really resonate with you. I will also say that this is such an important discussion on the alternatives available to decrease the risk of diagnostic tests. I am a physician (MD)/radilogist, and have been following Dr Meyers for years in regards to battling chronic fatigue for years. I think all related to perimenopause and menopause, but did a huge lifestyle change about 12 years ago, cleaned up diet and my environment. It is HARD work to maintain good health in the modern world and getting harder. My colleagues trained in conventional medicine do not realize this.
Thanks for your holistic approach including topics with mindset and energy with Dr Dispenza.
You are truly inspiring with all of your health struggles and also having dealt with being a caregiver to your mom, may she RIP.
I have Hashimotos as well. Thank you for sharing this information! Love this podcast and all your guests!! ❤️
I'm in perimenopause & I have hypothyroidism - great video and so much knowledge shared today; looking forward to part 2.
I'm glad you learned so much from part 1!!!
Thank you so much for sharing all this information… much appreciated!!!
You are so welcome!
Ugh, just had an mri with dye and had the option to pass on it and I didn’t. Looking forward to part 2 of this broadcast.
Live dr Amy, please start making your chewy chocolate protein bars again!!! There is nothing else like it in the market! It is the cleanest protein bar and my son loves it, takes it for lunch everyday. There is nothing else out there!
Thank you for all you do and who you are!
Medicine is the most lucrative industry. Doctors are forced to take on too many patients to make a living. The system has reduced the quality of doctor’s attention.
