My Story
I am Melodye Reynolds and I am a thyroid health advocate.
I am a fellow thyroid patient that was diagnosed with hypothyroidism after 4 years of pure hell and feeling like I was a shell of who I use to be.
I no longer looked or felt like me!! I could no longer do the things I wanted to desperately to do.
I was fat, fatigued and frustrated!
As a busy mom, wife and business owner, my life came to a stand still when I was completely unable to function any longer.
5 doctors, lots of tears and 4 years later I got diagnosed with hypothyroidism, Celiac Disease and Hashimotos, FINALLY!!!
THAT POINTED ME IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.
So I started researching. For 3 whole years. Paid a lot of money for courses from other people that had reversed this disease themselves. Spoke to thousands of other thyroid patients living with it to see what worked for them and what didnโt. Bought books. Read like a maniac. I BECAME OBSESSED WITH MY HEALTH!
I pushed for a diagnosis for my husband and turns out, he was hypo with Hashimotos too.
We started applying what I learned. (My husband is an amazing man and trusted me!)
And then we started to heal.
Our symptoms started disappearing one by one.
Our energy returned.
The brain fog lifted.
Our sex life heated back up.
We started losing weight.
Me without medication and my husband with the right kind of meds, both making the same diet and lifestyle changes because meds alone aren’t enough.
(And now our teen daughter has a hypo diagnosis, so we are helping her to heal too. Hypothyroidism or Hashimotos can hit at any age!)
Then everyone wanted to know what we were doing because they saw the results.
And that is what I am doing here.
Sharing with you the diet and lifestyle changes we made to reverse this horrible disease and to get symptom relief in an easy to understand way! Even though my husband was on medication, he still needed to make the changes to help them to work better.
No, I am NOT a doctor. I am someone living with and overcoming hypothyroidism and Hashimotos. I have experience with hypo first hand and you can see our results as well as the results others are getting with our guidance for yourself here on the rest of my site.
I believe in searching out the root cause of your illness and working to fix the source of the issue, not just covering up the symptoms. I believe in true healing.
I believe in educating yourself about your disease so you can understand what is happening and how to address it. Itโs empowering and will enable you to make better choices for your health on your own or with your doctor if you choose that route.
I believe that you should enjoy your life and feel good and not just be in survival mode all of the time. There is so much more to life than that!
So stick around if you are willing to learn and make changes. Healing takes work and consistency but you can do it one small change at a time!!

Hypothyroidism and Hashimotos don't get the last say in your life...
You can take your life back from hypothyroidism, you just need someone to show you how. You don’t have to live with the symptoms. You don’t have to accept that you’ll always feel the way you do. You have more power to overcome this disease than you know.
