What Midlife Women with Hashimoto’s Need to Know About Peptides with Dr Emily Kiberd

About this video

Woodward interviews chiropractor Dr. Emily Kyber about weight loss and autoimmune thyroid health in midlife women. Kyber shares her personal experience with two different GLP-1 peptides following postpartum weight retention, discusses muscle preservation strategies, and describes how she addresses Hashimoto’s and mold exposure in her practice. The conversation emphasizes protein intake, strength training, stress management, and using peptides as supplementary tools alongside foundational lifestyle habits.

Key takeaways

• Kyber reports experiencing severe nausea with semaglutide but better tolerance with tirzepatide, though she states she lost muscle mass initially due to insufficient protein and training intensity
• The guest recommends women with Hashimoto’s focus on hitting 30+ grams of protein per meal, lifting to near-muscular failure, and regulating the nervous system rather than avoiding all stressors
• Kyber claims BPC-157 helped her joint pain from volleyball and her husband’s ankle sprain, and she describes using GLP-1 peptides for their purported anti-inflammatory effects in autoimmune and mold-exposed patients
