  • Finally getting answers

    Thank you Dr. Eric! Your podcast has been a lifesaver. I’ve learned so much! I’ve struggled with Hashimoto’s for 20 years and doctors have always just “managed” my condition by what they see on the blood test results. Finally, I found you who agrees that our bodies aren’t broken! I passionately want to recover and I’m getting great advice through your podcast!

  • Talks over the guest a bit much

    I agree with another 3 star review about Eric talking over and arguing with the guest speaker in the interview excessively many times. I really want the opinion of the guest speaker! Sometimes I think he bangs on about cell danger response too much. I keep downloading when there are guests. It us goid he reminds people prescribing isn’t always the solution but because he doesn’t prescribe medication I feel ge sometimes is too dogmatic about “no pharma and supplements are pharma too “opinions.

  • Host argued with guest most of show

    Wow I listen to podcasts with guests all the time. This one really bothered me. He asks for her story then argued and said she was confusing it when he really did it S he explained how she didn’t think like him. I was interested in the thyroid topic but I just got upset by the host self righteousness. The guest is not there to bring the host glory! But to talk about in settled science. If he needs praise find a different platform and he totally owes his guest a bunch of apologies. By the... more
