This is a theme we see with most couples we work with & Sarah’s personal story
05:50- DR. TABATHA BARBER’S INITIAL RESPONSE
Conventional doctors are normally only looking at a tiny piece of the thyroid puzzle
How T3 and T4 interact (& were dysfunctional can take place)
In conventional medicine: “We are calling people normal when they are not.”
The importance of seeing the FULL picture and not relying on small “snippets”

When would we use medication and what types of medication we should use?
Another piece of the puzzle that is often missed
Sometimes you need medication but “Medication is not a life sentence.”
Medication should be super individualized and reevaluated often
