WHAT IF EVERYTHING YOU'VE BEEN TOLD ABOUT YOUR THYROID IS WRONG?

If you've ever been told your thyroid is "fine" while feeling like absolute garbage—brain fog, crushing fatigue, unexplained weight gain—this episode will change everything.

Dr. Shivani Gupta sits down with Ryan Monahan, the Functional Medicine expert who spent 10 YEARS and visited 40+ doctors before finally solving his own thyroid nightmare.

They unpack how functional medicine bridges the gap where conventional medicine fails, empowering you to reclaim your health through comprehensive testing, targeted nutrition, and addressing hidden stressors—from reversing autoimmune thyroid conditions and chronic fatigue to restoring energy, mental clarity, and metabolic function through personalized protocols that get to the root cause.

This episode goes beyond surface-level thyroid talk—it's a roadmap to thyroid recovery.

Key Highlights:

• Why TSH testing alone is "almost useless" - the 6 markers you actually need
• The intermittent fasting trap that's sabotaging your thyroid
• Why 95% of hypothyroidism is autoimmune (and most people don't know it)
• The protein deficiency crisis secretly destroying thyroid hormone production
• Cell danger response revealed - why you feel terrible despite "normal" labs

Why You Should Watch:

Tired of being told you're "fine" while feeling exhausted and foggy? Monahan exposes what your doctor isn't testing and reveals the root-cause fixes that actually work.

Welcome to Fusionary Health with Dr. Shivani Gupta. In this solo master-class she reveals the hidden epidemic she calls mental inflammation—a chronic, low-grade tension that rewires the nervous system even when your labs look “normal.” You’ll hear how relentless pings, deadlines, and social-media comparison keep the HPA axis locked in overdrive, how elevated cortisol erodes the gut lining and sparks systemic inflammation, and why a sluggish vagus nerve blocks true recovery.

Drawing on modern research and timeless Ayurveda, Dr. Shivani explains why mental inflammation shows up as fatigue, brain fog, IBS, insomnia, mood swings, and stubborn weight-gain. She outlines a practical antidote: rhythmic breathwork, phone-free nature walks, a “tea-time-is-me-time” ritual, consistent circadian scheduling, and earth-grounding pauses—micro habits that signal safety to the body and cool the inflammatory cascade.

Along the way she offers a sneak peek at her forthcoming Hay House × Penguin Random House book The Inflammation Code (publishing 3 Feb 2026), shares a raw account of managing her own burnout while finishing the manuscript, and invites listeners to preorder the book, download a free vagus-toning breath guide, and explore her line of functional Ayurvedic teas. Press play, breathe deeply, and learn how to reset your mind–body circuitry one small moment at a time.

Are you doing everything right—clean eating, working out, even taking supplements—but still dealing with inflammation, fatigue, or nagging pain?
In this solo episode of Fusionary Health, Dr. Shivani Gupta reveals the truth behind turmeric: what works, what doesn’t, and how this ancient Ayurvedic powerhouse can transform your health when used correctly.

Dr. Shivani, an Ayurvedic practitioner with a Ph.D. in turmeric research, breaks down the science behind curcumin, the silent damage of chronic inflammation, and the most common mistakes people make with supplements. Known as “The Turmeric PhD,” she has spent over 20 years helping people naturally reduce pain, heal from the inside out, and create sustainable anti-inflammatory lifestyles.

From explaining why your $20 turmeric supplement isn’t cutting it, to sharing how turmeric supports brain function, joint health, hormone balance, and immunity—this episode is packed with clarity, compassion, and practical tools you can apply today.

Key Highlights:

• Why most turmeric supplements fail—and how to choose one that actually works
• Common myths busted: “More is better” and “Turmeric works instantly”
• Turmeric vs. curcumin vs. culinary turmeric—what’s the real difference?
• How to pair turmeric with lifestyle shifts for long-term healing
