The Tara Thorne Wellness Podcast

In this episode I tell you what my two favourite functional tests are that I keep coming back to time and time again. These are tried and true tests that give us SO much valuable information that really helps no matter what your symptoms are. I've been in this industry a while now and I've used and learned about a lot of functional tests. Maybe I'll change my tune one day about what I think are th...

In this episode I challenge the notion of; "I've tried everything". You see, I hear this a lot from women but the truth is, often they've not actually tried "everything" - and this should give them hope. There's often so much more to explore and I explain it all in this episode. I go down the list of things you must look at before you say "I've tried everything!". See how many you can tick off. Yo...

On this episode I spoke with Jo Lia from No Tox Rox and we spoke all about mold. Mold toxicity is a big problem, and I've seen many a client suffering with their hormonal health only to find out it was mold driving their symptoms. But how do you know what to look out for? How do you know when mold is an issue? What's the best way to test? We get into these questions and more on this episode. Jo is...

In this short episode I explain why hormones are so important and what some lesser known hormones are. It's not all about the sexier hormones: estrogen, progesterone, and even thyroid. Hormone balance requires us to look at ALL the 50+ hormones we have.

On this episode of the podcast I talk about iron. Iron can be very dangerous if you don't need it, and ferritin alone isn't a good marker for determining whether or not you have an iron deficiency. If you're taking iron supplements based on one ferritin reading then this is a must-listen. I go into why iron is useless without copper, how one may become iron toxic and the dangers of iron toxicity,...

In this episode of the podcast I spoke about copper toxicity; what the symptoms are, how one becomes copper toxic, how copper toxicity AND deficiency can look the same, what the best test is for copper (blood vs. HTMA), and more. A must-listen for anyone with hypothyroidism (or symptoms), PMS or estrogen excess, or any type of mental health issue. Thank you for joining me. If you enjoyed this epis...

Minerals are crucial for hormone health & overall health, yet hardly anyone in the health & wellness space is talking about them. In this episode we talk about how the thyroid, your estrogen levels, & your adrenals rely on healthy mineral status & balance.
