Feeling anxious, tired, sweaty, and still losing weight without trying? Your thyroid might be working overtime. In this episode, we break down hyperthyroidism — what it is, why it happens, and how it can quietly (or loudly) affect your heart, mood, sleep, weight, and overall quality of life. We talk common causes like Graves’ disease, nodules, inflammation and medication side effects, plus the symptoms people often brush off as “just stress.” You’ll also hear about testing, treatment options, and why getting the right diagnosis can be life-changing. If your body feels stuck in fast-forward, this episode helps you slow things down and get the facts.
