For years, I have been asking why my thyroid stopped working in my 30s or how to fix it, and no one had been able to tell me. It was during a very stressful period of life as a broke, divorced, down-on-myself, chronically semi-ill start-up entrepreneur. Your explanation about estrogen dominance and thyroid health makes sense--thank you!

[bharathidayanand]

You are the first doctor to tell even if the blood report is fine, there might be issues with the thyroid gland, I have faced this and got a thyroidectomy done because of inflammation. Thanks for confirming 🙏

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK This video did far more for me than my doctor ever has.

A year ago my TSH levels were a little high, but my T4 levels were normal. She only tested to make sure I didn’t have Hashimoto’s, which I was negative. She didn’t ask me if I was getting adequate iodine, she didn’t ask me if my adrenals were fatigued, nothing. Basically she’s just waiting for me to go into full-blown hypothyroid. She only told me I should get back with her if I have any issues like facial swelling, lethargy, etc.

I have been primarily vegan for 4 years and only used Himalayan salt for the last 10 years. So I probably need more iodine, which began taking.

1 year later, my TSH is lower (now in the high normal range) and my T4 is in the middle of the normal range, but a tad bit higher than last year, meaning the lower amounts of TSH are able to produce a bit more T4 (good thing)!

Now that I’ve watched this video I have figured out SO many more routes to pursue to support my thyroid health journey

Vitamin C powder 5 grams a day..
Loose stools is a sign its working.
Lower stress levels.

Thank you so much. After living with autoimmunity for 18 years now, I have never heard it said, not from one doctor or naturopath that it is actually heavy metals that my body is seeking out and attacking - NOT ME PER SE, NOT MY ORGANS PER SE. As you said, they are simply collateral damage. I can't thank you enough. I now feel empowered again to begin my 2nd attempt at remission after having my 1st in 2014.

I am curing my Hashimoto's autoimmune disease by two things.
1. Removing all dairy.
2. Taking vitamin D3 at 10, 000 I.U.s per day. Vitamin D3 regulates the immune system.

I found through testing that I have no problem with gluten or cruciferous vegetables. You also need to get you vitamin D3 levels between 60-90 on the lab tests to have maximum benefit.
My TPO antibodies have been dropping like crazy in the last seven months. I began this this my antibodies at 154. Then it was 100. Now on my next test, it should be at 44. Under 35 is considered cured.

Thank you so much for this. I think I may have thyroid issues. This video was very helpful. This is the beginning of my journey. I’m definitely going to do these things thank you

[monishabanerjee]

Homeopathy cured my hypothyroidism. My TSH levels were 14.3 and it has come down to 4.3 in 3 months. Never take allopathy medicines without trying out alternate medication.

[elisaelisa]

Lost two early this year. I already have meds for levothyroxine so didn't think much about it. I met with the doctor yesterday and found out my levels were at 4.1. We want it to be at 2.0 or less so did up my dose. I saw this video and will now stop taking Maca like you suggest. Thanks so much!

[PrincipleWoman]

You should also speak about Hyperthyroidism as not everyone is hypo. Would also be helpful to those with an overactive thyroid. Although, addressing your adrenal is helpful for both.

[LadyInWhite]

I’m on Armour Thyroid for about 5 years now and switching to this medication made all of the difference! My gland couldn’t convert the T3.

[oh]

May god bless you 🙏. I found this by accident a couple months ago have taken on board what you say here and feel much better and more hopeful.

[SyedaChishty-fmdo]

Good quality Vitamin C
Avoid foods - which harms gut health - Soy, maca,
Diet completely clean
Inorove anterior pituitary gland function
Reduce estogen hormone dominance
Boost projesterone
Remove metal toxicity

Thank you for this video - really helpful- I have hypothyroidism.

Luckily I was able to conceive quickly - but sadly had an MC due to my GP not having the knowledge or education that I needed to increase my levothyroxine as soon as I got a positive test!
I had no idea - so I didn’t think to look into This or ask - I assumed my health care provider would have suggested this.
Until we lost the baby (12 wk ) -
I looked into it. This knowledge is all over the internet.

I was suffering some side effects such as exhaustion, dizziness, breathlessness- constipation.
and my midwife ignored all this and still didn’t think to check my blood.levels or increase my meds. Again I assumed my thyroid was fine seeing as I was able to conceive. And they didn’t even mention it.

I’m still heart broken by this experience- and feel let down. I also blamed myself for a long time.

but I hope this info helps someone out there who has hypo -
Do be curious/ask questions- Read up on it and don’t ignore symptoms.

Also if taking any multivitamin/ iron/ folic acid - take this at the end of the day. Opposite to when you Take levothyroxine. As They can effect absorption. Take thyroxine meds in the morning 1 hr before food and drink. And avoid caffeine around that time too.
This makes a difference.

I feel very strongly about this- so I hope this helps.

Important note: increase your hypo thyroid meds with a DR - as soon as you find out your pregnant! X

I started out with a diagnosis of thyroid hormone resistance when I was 16 because I had an ungodly high amount of t4, approximately 4 times the normal range, yet I looked perfectly fine. Then around 21 my t4 went down and my tsh went shooting up, which meant hypothyroidism which I was later diagnosed, and today at almost 26 my doctor told me my thyroid levels are totally normal which baffled me. It is possible to heal and fix your thyroid, as I did it myself. It feels like a milestone achievement.

Hi Dr.
Could you please talk about trying to conceive with Hashimotos. What should be done?

[barbaraness]

I am 59 with four adult kids, and obviously not concerned with fertility. I do have hypothyroidism, and I need to try to improve it because I need to lose weight. I have a deteriorated spine, fatty liver, and other health issues that I feel could improve with weight loss. Over a year ago I lost 18# in less than three weeks, and my thyroid level decreased a little.
Thanks for the information about the thyroid, and hypothyroidism. I’m hoping to have some improvement after I try your suggestions.

[KeyaReneeMonroe]

Thank you so much for taking your time to make this Video for some of us who has visited the drs and still have yet to confirm wether it’s the thyroid or just merely day to day activities that is the reason for our exhaustion. What are some of the best sources of Vitamin C that you recommend?

[mezanian]

8 miscarriages in 10 years, then a friend noticed my goiter. For years I'd been ignored by DRs, my Mum had Hyperthyroid undiagnosed for years, and many miscarriages also. After a thyroidectomy, and a diagnosis of Hashimotos, I had a healthy full term boy at 37yrs old, but then lost a girl, premature (21 weeks). I always felt it was Thyroid, but was treated for everything but that, even infertility. My lesson from that is always follow your gut, bloodtests never showed the nodules growing over 12 years of worry.

7:00 for cruciferous it is mostly important to consider if they are cooked or not, it can make a big diffrence to eat them sometimes, in a cooked way and in small amount
