OM DENNE EPISODE
Can kidney health affect thyroid hormone metabolism in people with Hashimoto’s? In this episode of Reversing Hashimoto’s, Dr Anshul Gupta explores the thyroid–kidney connection, the gut–kidney axis, and how kidney function fits into a whole-body approach to Hashimoto’s thyroiditis.
Discover how thyroid hormones interact with kidney function, why the gut microbiome matters, and what research says about urinary metabolites and advanced testing. Learn about essential kidney-health tests, including creatinine, eGFR, urinalysis, and urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (ACR).
Dr Gupta also shares practical ways to support kidney health through blood pressure management, balanced nutrition, appropriate hydration, protein intake, and careful medication and supplement use. Plus, understand the limitations of Organic Acid Testing (OAT) and why kidney detoxes are not a substitute for medical care.
