How Can We Help?

Frequently Asked Questions

• You refer to Thyroid Refresh as a 'Lifestyle Support Platform'. What does that mean? Think of Thyroid Refresh as a living thyroid lifestyle magazine. But can a magazine connect you with other human beings going through the same challenges? Can a magazine play a thyroid-friendly workout video for you? Can a magazine bring you into someone's kitchen and show you thyroid-friendly cooking techniques? No. But a membership site can. And 'membership site' doesn't really convey what we're all about, which is supporting your pursuit of a thyroid-healthy lifestyle, in a beautiful, magazine-quality sort of way. It's not life support, but lifestyle support and this website is the amazing platform upon which we can provide that to you. Hence, we are a lifestyle support platform : )

• Is this website for women only, or are men welcome too? Of course men are welcome! Our audience is made up of over 90% women, so you might get the feeling we are designed with that in mind, but THYROID30 and Thyroid Refresh welcome anyone with thyroid disease, regardless of gender.
• What is THYROID30? Our flagship program turns the pursuit of a thyroid-healthy lifestyle into an online game. Over the course of 30 days, you will track all aspects of your thyroid lifestyle, empowering you to identify and make necessary changes, backed by the support of your teammates (don't worry, you can choose from a team directory and don't need to recruit players). THYROID30 takes place 4x per year (once per season). Each season's wellness adventure enables you to make a concentrated effort towards attainable and sustainable life changes based on common-core, thyroid-specific diet and lifestyle recommendations. When the 30 days ends, you can keep the inspiration flowing and lock in those healthy habits with the ongoing support of Thyroid Refresh monthly membership.
• How many times a year can I do the THYROID30 wellness adventure? There will be four challenges per year (one per season). Each one will be unique, and tailored to the season. We encourage you to participate regularly and repeatedly in THYROID30, choosing one or two specific personal goals for each. The thyroid journey is an ongoing one, and life changes are more likely to stick if you make them in small, attainable steps. That’s why we designed THYROID30 to be utilized regularly, and Thyroid Refresh membership to provide you with year-round support.
