Her Hashimoto's didn't start with her thyroid. It started with a virus nobody had mentioned to her before.</p><p><br></p><p>📋 Lori Hill is a personal trainer, nutrition coach, and the founder of MetFix Method, a metabolic health gym built on the belief that chronic disease can be rolled back, not just managed. Robyn met Lori at the Menlo Park screening of The Cholesterol Code — and this conversation is what happened when they finally sat down together. Lori walks through the long, layered version of her health story: undiagnosed insulin resistance from childhood, a body that nearly didn't survive childbirth, a misdiagnosed parasite infection that went untreated for nine months, and an autoimmune thyroid condition she traced back to a latent Epstein-Barr infection. She also talks about perimenopause, hormone replacement done right, and how a carnivore reset became an unexpected turning point in her 49th year.</p><p><br></p><p>🔑 What You'll Learn</p><p><br></p><ul><li>How a latent Epstein-Barr infection can drive autoimmune thyroid disease</li><li>What an undiagnosed parasite infection can do to gut health and mental clarity over time</li><li>Why hormone replacement without progesterone can backfire for women in perimenopause</li><li>What changed when Lori tested a carnivore approach on herself before recommending it to clients</li><li>How MetFix and the Broken Science Initiative are training coaches to address root cause, not just symptoms</li></ul><p><br></p><p>💡 Key Insight</p><p>\"It's never too late to reclaim your health and live your best life.\" — Lori Hill</p><p><br></p><p>🌐 Connect with Lori Hill</p><p><a href=\"https://www.metfixmethod.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.metfixmethod.com</a></p><p><a href=\"https://www.crossfitsr.com\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.crossfitsr.com</a></p><p><a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/coachlori925\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.instagram.com/coachlori925</a></p><p><a href=\"https://www.tiktok.com/@coachlori925\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.tiktok.com/@coachlori925</a></p><p><a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/@lorihillmetfixmethod\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.youtube.com/@lorihillmetfixmethod</a></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>⚕️ This podcast is for informational and educational purposes only and is not medical advice; always consult a qualified healthcare professional about your own health decisions.</p><p><br></p><p>⏳ Chapters</p><p>0:47 Welcome and How They Met at the Cholesterol Code Screening</p><p>3:51 A Childhood of Undiagnosed Insulin Resistance</p><p>8:51 Rock Bottom at 235 Pounds and Finding CrossFit</p><p>11:46 The Epstein-Barr Connection Behind Hashimoto's</p><p>18:47 Parasites, Misdiagnosis, and a Nine-Month Fight for Answers</p><p>34:39 Why Perimenopause Symptoms Aren't Just \"Part of Getting Older\"</p><p>38:09 Hormone Replacement Therapy Done Right</p><p>42:52 Testing Carnivore as a Perimenopause Reset</p><p>47:50 Inside MetFix and the Broken Science Initiative</p><p>59:34 Lifting Heavy, Aging Well, and Skipping the \"Old\" Word</p>","author_name":"Robyn R Dobbins"}
