This week, Dr. Osgood steps into the hot seat to cover all things related to thyroid medications, including when they are needed (and when they’re not), how to get the right testing, and signs it’s time to make a change. 

Dr. Seth Osgood is the founder of GrassRoots Functional Medicine, where he works with patients in person and virtually to get to the root of their symptoms and restore their natural ability to heal. 

He discovered early in his career that Functional Medicine was his true passion after a functional approach helped transform his own health and the health of his family, who struggled needlessly for years with digestive problems. In his practice, he and his team use advanced lab testing, nutrition counseling, personalized protocols, and mindset coaching to help patients build a life that revolves around physical, emotional, and spiritual wellbeing.

• When are thyroid medications needed?
• How to get the correct thyroid testing
• When can patients come off of thyroid medications?
• What are the different types of thyroid medications?
• How to choose the correct medication and dosage

Dr. Osgood’s health tip: Be your own advocate. Be ready to make some difficult choices and make sure you are exercising daily and get the rest you need.
