At times, your doctor is clueless about the underlying factors and does not go deeply into the root of the symptoms. One of these commonly misdiagnosed health problems is thyroid issues. Elle Russ shares her story from being a patient who suffered misdiagnosis and improper treatments to becoming a health coach. Now, she helps people, particularly women, get the information and support they need to overcome hypothyroidism through the Paleo Thyroid Solution. Learn more about this treatment and how to gauge if your thyroid is acting normally or not.    “It’s easy to fix hypothyroidism if you just have the right person guiding you.” - Elle Russ   Subscribe to the podcast on: Apple Podcast Stitcher Spotify PodBean TuneIn Radio   In This Episode:   - Why do we see an epidemic of thyroid issues?
