Description: Millions of people are told their thyroid is fine—yet they still suffer from fatigue, cold hands and feet, hair thinning, low libido, weight gain, and depression. This could be cellular hypothyroidism, a condition where the issue isn’t with how much hormone your thyroid makes, but with how well your body uses it.

In this interview, Dr. Justin Marchegiani and Dr. Eric Balcavage explore the key reasons why traditional thyroid testing often fails to detect thyroid hormone resistance at the cellular level. They dive deep into:

How stress, cortisol, inflammation, and gut infections impair thyroid conversion

Why Reverse T3 can block active T3 from working

The importance of looking at Free T3, RT3, and T3/RT3 ratios

Key nutrients (like selenium, zinc, iron, and B12) that fuel proper thyroid function

How to support mitochondria, detox pathways, and reduce inflammation for better thyroid hormone action

If you feel stuck despite being told everything is normal, this video is a must-watch. You’ll walk away with clear answers and actionable steps to start feeling better.

What You’ll Learn: ✅ The difference between thyroid gland dysfunction and cellular hypothyroidism ✅ Why normal TSH and T4 levels don’t tell the whole story ✅ How inflammation, stress, and toxins block thyroid hormone at the cellular level ✅ Why Reverse T3 is critical (and often ignored) ✅ Functional strategies to test and fix thyroid hormone resistance
