At least 60% of the biological audits I conduct find an underperforming, or lazy thyroid. Which is bad news for metabolism, weight gain, energy and sleep. The question then is, why? Why are thyroids underactive? And how do we promote thyroid health under the pressure of the modern urban lifestyle and environment?

Lab Values Podcast (Nursing Podcast, normal lab values for nurses for NCLEX®) by NRSNG

Objective: Determine the significance and clinical use of  Thyroid Stimulating Hormone in clinical practice   Lab Test Name: Thyroid Stimulating Hormone   Description: Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) is released from the anterior pituitary in response to low levels of thyroid hormone.  TSH stimulates the thyroid gland to release thyroid hormones Triiodothyronine (T3)  Thyroxine (T4) T3 and T4 have an inverse relationship with TSH   Indications: Aids to diagnose: Hyperthyroidism Hypothyroidism Anterior pituitary function Monitor:  Thyroid replacement therapy   Normal Therapeutic Values: Normal –  2-10 mU/L Collection:  Plasma separator tube   What would cause increased levels? TSH levels increase in the following conditions: Hypothyroidism Thyroidectomy Thyroid dysfunction Thyroiditis Thyroid Agenesis Large doses of iodine Pituitary TSH-secreting tumor   What would cause decreased levels? Recall the inverse relationship between TSH and T3/T4 labs, and how the negative feedback loop works with these hormones. TSH levels decrease in the following conditions: Anterior pituitary hypofunction- If the pituitary isn't secreting TSH, the level will be low. Hyperthyroidism- If there is a large amount of thyroid hormone circulating, the feedback system relays the info upstream and less TSH is released.

At 43 years of age, Wende was feeling tired, gaining weight, had thinning hair, and was sick a lot of the time. She ate well and exercised but wasn't seeing a change in her body. After consulting a local endocrinologist, she was placed on synthetic thyroid medication that made her gain even more weight! She heard Dr. Hotze on the radio and decided to schedule an appointment. After bloodwork and a physical evaluation, it was advised that Wende switch from synthetic thyroid (T4) to desiccated thyroid (T3+T4). She could tell a big difference within a few weeks and felt 20 years younger within a month! Check out Wende's personal testimony and see what other hormone her body was lacking!

 The Dr. Chalmers Show Season #3, episode 15 - Hormones are not that difficult, and here are some easy and critical takeaways.While working with my patients on their wellness journey, hormones are some of the most critical and least understood components necessary for a healthy lifestyle. Thanks for listening, and Chalmers Wellness has some great information through podcasts, interviews, and my research rolling out in the next few months.The following is an automated transcript and may be edited for grammar, and please listen to the podcast for exact verbiage.Dr Matt Chalmers [00:00:10] So I talk a lot about hormones the more I work with hormones, the more I see stuff that other doctors have done, the more irritated I get Hormones aren't that hard. They're just really not that hard. I get it. Some of the stuff that I talk about is kind of difficult, and I understand why docs don't get hormones are pretty easy it's like flipping switches.Dr Matt Chalmers [00:00:31] When people draw TSA age and they they look at it, they know where TSA is good so your your thyroid is good. I understand that the T and TSA stands for thyroid. However, if you understand that the s stands for stimulating. Then you understand that the way this works is that this is a hormone that works on the Thyroid it's not a thyroid hormone it's a brain hormone, the entire pituitary it tells the thyroid to do stuff.Dr Matt Chalmers [00:01:01] So what you're actually saying is that your brain is doing a good job telling the thyroid to do something. You have to look at T3 T4 at least I if you want to pull the reverse T3 T4 fantastic. There's other things support for thyroid, but you have to pull T3 T4 to say anything about the thyroid. And in fact you can't even really tell if rts h is where it's supposed to be without T3 to T4.Dr Matt Chalmers [00:01:23] Because what's supposed to happen is that if you have too much T3 your brain goes, Ooh. We looked at the body and saw we have too much T3 we're going to make a lot less or No TSH So that your, your Thyroid will then make less T3.Dr Matt Chalmers [00:01:38] If your T3 is low we should see high T3 I would tie TSH That's what we should see so that we go, Oh, look, the problems of the Thyroid, you're not producing any any T3. But without the T3T4 you can't, you can't figure out any of this stuff so you've got to pull all three.Dr Matt Chalmers [00:01:56] Testosterone is fantastic for women. It is fantastic for men. Men need a lot more. Usually about ten times more. You get a woman with 100 testosterone levels that's that's great. Guy with a thousand that's great so that's where your ten times more comes from.Dr Matt Chalmers [00:02:12] Estrogen is not super important for guys you can keep it down then you know, most people can keep it in the 15 to 30 range and as men and they're great. It is really important for women who are trying to have a baby or trying to breastfeed. If they're not trying to have a baby, they need very little as long as they don't have vaginal dryness or hot flushes, night sweats, they've got plenty.Dr Matt Chalmers [00:02:41] I don't care if it's 20 if you pull up your your your hormones and you're like your estrogen is 20. If you ask the woman, hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, she goes, No, I'm great. I don't have any of that stuff then she's fine.Dr Matt Chalmers [00:02:55] Because again the way hormones work is that the hormones activate receptor sites guess what? Other stuff activates those receptor sites too. Like BPA, Soy, lots of all those plant sufferers like we should eat more plants. Yeah, you're flooding the body with estrogens and a lot of those a lot of those chemicals are energy based so that which is problematic.Dr Matt Chalmers [00:03:19] The problem is, is that you can't see how many receptors you have. So you can only see how many, how much hormone you have. So the analogy I use for this and this one is not great. I'm hoping to come up with some better from this later.Dr Matt Chalmers [00:03:32] But the analogy I use is like a parking lot so you have 50 spaces and you look out in the parking lot and you say, Hey, how many blue cars we have out there? And there are six blue cars. And see how great that means Out of the 50 spaces there, six blue cursors, 44 open spaces, You No, no, that's not what that means you just ask me how many blue cars there were. There's five white cars, three red cars, two motorcycles, a bus and an RV. You're like, Oh my gosh. What? There's a lot more receptor sites taking off than there are estrogens. Well, yeah, that's how that's one of the reasons we see cancer spool up.Dr Matt Chalmers [00:04:07] And then people pull estrogens and they're like, Oh, you're estrogens. Fine. You're not estrogen dominant as you are. You can't cause all the other trash that's sitting on your estrogen receptors.Dr Matt Chalmers [00:04:16] So that's the other piece you kind of have to understand how these things work, where they should be and if you look at a blood level, you should be like, Oh, well, you should be here, but you're not. So that tells me that something else is activating these receptors sight.Dr Matt Chalmers [00:04:28] So that's the big thing Testosterone is the healing hormone it heals everything in your body, heart, brain, blood, vessels, gut. I can't get all suppliers to repair without giving people testosterone bone density, osteoblasts information is driven by testosterone. So you have to have testosterone.Dr Matt Chalmers [00:04:51] It is the primary anti-aging hormone so it's critically important there's I don't know the exact numbers, but it's high. I might be wrong saying 90% of men who have low T and have anxiety and depression can be seriously helped, if not completely fixed by giving them testosterone. But I see at my office every single day so testosterone is super important.Dr Matt Chalmers [00:05:19] Progesterone is kind of a between Z so because I hate giving women estrogen, because if you give a woman estrogen, you're just asking to give them cancer that's a great one just look up HRT, Estrogen, Cancer. You're going to find lots and lots and lots of articles about women who are given estrogen and they got cancer.Dr Matt Chalmers [00:05:40] So we're getting testosterone. Testosterone converts into estrogen if a hot flashes night sweats, vaginal dryness doesn't go away. We'll give them a little bit of natural progesterone, and that will usually convert over into estrogen enough that they don't have any issues. It's only then that I'm down for estrogen treatments for women and it's like I said, it's very, very, very rare that they actually need them after the testosterone of the Progestrone.Dr Matt Chalmers [00:06:06] There's there's a host of other old growth hormones, a fantastic one that's a big one I use, again for ulcer colitis, for anti-aging. So I like I like getting it from the body. So I'll use peptides small and I formalin test them all in. But, you know, those are that's kind of how we play with that.Dr Matt Chalmers [00:06:27] But the the, the fear and the hatred that our country's developed for testosterone is hilarious, is sad and hilarious. By the way, the hatred for steroids. I know a lot more women on steroids than I know men. I would say it's 50 to 1 for teenagers, that women are on steroids not men.Dr Matt Chalmers [00:06:52] Because estrogen is a steroid and birth control is taking steroids. So there you go progesterone is a steroid. You know, they're all made from cholesterol. So that's a steroid is made from a sterile, which is cholesterol so that's kind of where they're at. But that's that's a big one.Dr Matt Chalmers [00:07:13] The only other big hormone that you really need to make monitoring it up is D3. D3 is a hormone, and it's not a vitamin, which I guess kind of goes to show the level of hormone knowledge that we have in the country. I mean, the first rule of vitamin is cannot be made in the body and D3 is made in the body. So it violates the primary rule of vitamins to begin with.Check out Chalmers Pillarsofwellness.com for Wellness updates! And ask me any questions you have at questions@chalmerswellness.com.

In this episode, I invite Kari Degrandpre on to talk thyroid and hormone health. I have struggled with thyroid issues for over 10 years, and until I found Kari, my thyroid levels were all over the charts.Kari is a family practitioner in Huntsville. She works at Advanced Life Care and knows her stuff! She listens to her patients. I was so excited for this episode and needing out about thyroid talk, I forgot to give you the basics of thyroid hormone. TSH: Thyroid Stimulating Hormone. This hormone stimulates your thyroid to put out thyroid  hormone in the body. T3: The active thyroid hormone that manages ALL THINGS (metabolism, hair growth, energy levels, etc)T4: The inactive form of thyroid hormone. This hormone is suppose to convert to the active form T3. Why do we want Free T3/Free T4 levels drawn instead of total? The "free" labs tell you how much hormone you have circulating "freely" in the blood stream which givens you a better picture of what you are working with. The "total" labs tell you how much total T3/T4 you have in your body, but doesn't tell you where ... is it in the blood stream, peripheral, or tissues? Hard to say with this lab. What labs do you need to ask your doctor for? My recommendations are: TSH, Free T3, Free T4, TPO antibodies, Thyroglobulin levels, and in some cases, you may need more. Reference Range: The range at which that lab says is "normal" for that specific lab being drawn. Optimal: A more narrow range where people your age and gender feel "better" without side effects, but diminishes or lessens one's symptoms. Disclaimer: This podcast was just to give a picture of thyroid and hormone health. It is to share my story and experiences that I have felt with along the way. It is in no way intended to replace the advice of your doctor. Be your own advocate and have a communication with your doctor to get to the root cause of your illnesses. If you aren't bored of me yet, listen to the bonus episode where I share my own personal experience with my thyroid health. Thanks for listening you guys! As always, like, rate, share, and subscribe to the podcast to get it out into the world. If you're feeling really good, leave a little review. Find Kari @ http://www.advancedlifecarehsv.comFind me @ http://www.babblesnonsense.com/

“We're wired to change the world,” remarks Dr. Topher Fox as he discusses best practices for reversing and preventing type 2 diabetes. Like many doctors who work in endocrinology and diabetes care, considering his patients' daily routines and habits is significant to their outcomes. He includes more than just traditional medical frameworks, adding in research-based behavior-changing measures. Listen and learn His thoughts on hypothyroidism medication, such as a T4 or a combined T3 and T4 approach; Why he thinks prediabetics and type 2 diabetic patients are underserved and what he's doing about it, and Examples of effective methods for coaching endocrinology diabetes patients through behaviors conducive to healthy results. Christopher (Topher) R. Fox is an endocrinologist, diabetes and obesity specialist practicing in Superior, Colorado, at the Alpine Center. He spends the whole of his practice as a clinician with an extremely patient-focused approach, which is clear as he discusses traditional medicine's faults and successes as it addresses the human endocrine system.  He mentions some of the toughest issues in thyroid treatments, especially the subset of patients who get their numbers in line yet still struggle with unexplained symptoms. He reviews his reasoning for trying medicinal combinations, such as a T3-T4 combination, or why he might turn to further tests to find an alternate cause. He also directs the conversation where he's put a lot of his energy: it struck him how often patients answer that they “don't eat as well or exercise as much as they should.” Instead of ignoring this, he's brought his full attention to motivational issues as an endocrinology, diabetes and metabolism impact factor. “In general, willpower always falls short,” he says. He's done something about this in his practice and developed coaching programs and a closely-monitored twelve-week approach for patients. These methods integrate activities like their “be a hero” framework and “intention setting,” which are proven practices to increase certain behaviors. Listen in for more about these methods, researchers he suggests reviewing, and successful stories of past patients. For more about his practice, see thealpinecenter.com and drtopherfox.com.

See all the Healthcast at https://www.biobalancehealth.com/healthcast-blog/ Physical Signs of Hypothyroidism:  What a doctor or YOU can see or feel on your body: Low Pulse and Low Blood pressure Basal Body Temperature below 98 (your oral temperature taken before you get out of bed in the morning). No sweating when you exercise or are in hot weather Swelling all over the body Brittle nails Loss of, or thinning body hair Hair problems: poor quality brittle hair, thinning all over the head, slow hair growth and constant shedding Weight Gain when you eat normally Swelling, and puffiness around the eyes Distended and bloated abdomen Goiter or swelling in the neck Extremely dry skin, may look like cobblestones Loss of the lateral Eyebrows (the outer third of the eyebrows) Heart arrythmias and palpitations Cold hands and feet If you have 3 or more of these signs you should be evaluated for hypothyroidism. There are high risk factors that should alert you and your doctor that you are high risk to get Hypothyroidism: Being female Aging over 50 Living in the Midwest Family history of Hypothyroidism Family history of Hyperthyroidism, Graves Disease and Hashimotos Thyroiditis. Allergy to Iodine Poor diet, lack of vitamin A, vitamin D, Lack of Iodine and Zinc. Diagnosed with an autoimmune disease already Diagnosed with Depression Drink fluorinated water  If the patient is a woman, she is eight times more likely to have hypothyroidism than a man, and if she lives in the northern Midwestern US, the Goiter Belt, she has a very high risk of the hypothyroid epidemic that affects most women in that area. This high rate is the result of a lack of iodine in the ground and water sourced in the Midwest that causes hypothyroidism. Overall, hypothyroidism causes the human metabolism to slow to a standstill. And slow the production of energy in the cells, and store that energy as fat. Low thyroid slows growth hormone, which thins the hair and makes it frizzy and fall out in large amounts. Thyroid hormone is meant to keep the body temperature between 98 and 98.6 by stoking the metabolic fire and keeping the body warm enough for enzymes to work, and cells to work as well. We are “warm blooded” for a reason and “warmth” is accomplished by thyroid hormones effect on each cell in our body.   When we have hypothyroidism from inability to  secrete enough thyroid hormone, or if we aren't given enough thyroid replacement our body's enzymes and chemical reactions slow down and stop, causing us to gain weight, feel fatigues and sick. Thyroid is the thermostat and our cells including muscles and other organs make energy out of our food. Thyroid hormones also stimulate the intestines to work  and absorb the food that gives us energy.  Without thyroid our intestines come to a standstill and we are constipated!  I contend that the great number of drugs on the market to help constipation would be unnecessary, if every person had enough thyroid hormone and iodine to make their gut work! Fatigue can take many shapes, but hypothyroidism causes a patient to have the  feeling of exhaustion that stems from malfunction of the smallest cells throughout the body that cannot turn blood sugar into energy.  Lake of thyroid makes organs made of those cells slow down to a virtual stop.  It is in that way that the effect of inadequate  thyroid hormone on the cellular level, makes the whole mechanism of the human body slow to a virtual stop, and we “feel” exhausted.  This is terrible for the human body and we cannot live well  without adequate thyroid hormone. Depressed mood is a very common diagnosis in the US ad often the depressed mood comes from low levels of thyroid, testosterone and or estrogen (in women).  Anti-depressants don't generally completely cure depression in these cases because anti-depressants don't fix low thyroid. Inability to think and concentrate is common in 39% of patients with untreated hypothyroidism.  Before worrying about having a degenerative disease or “getting old” get your thyroid checked and replace the thyroid with an appropriate amount of thyroid hormone. I have treated many infertile patients with thyroid replacement  in my GYN practice for the first 29 years of my medical practice, and it was unbelievably effective!   Normal thyroid is necessary to get pregnant, and infertility doctors rarely look at this very common cause of infertility, when it is very common. The Bottom Line:   If you have 3 or more of the symptoms described above then have your thyroid checked with at least 5 different tests: Free T4, Free T3, TSH, and reverse T 3.  If your Free T4 is less than 1.0, your free T3 is less than or equal to 3,0 and your reverse T3 is greater than 20 then you probably have hypothyroidism. You should first take Iodoral 12.5 mg per day with a pinch of salt and find a doctor who will replace your thyroid and listen to your symptoms.  Once you are treated then you should find a doctor to increase your dose to the point where all of your symptoms are gone, your lab tests are normal and your basal body temperature is 97.9 degrees F, or greater. Type of Thyroid Replacement Medication: Women do much better with a combination of T3 + T4 thyroid replacement called porcine thyroid, or Armour Thyroid, Naturethroid, or WP thyroid.  Men are fine on the synthetic thyroid, Synthroid, or levothyroxine  most of the time Post replacement thyroid testing: After replacement with thyroid, your blood tests should be drawn, on an empty stomach before you take your morning thyroid,  and your TSH should be 1.0 or less, your free T3 should be 3.0 or more, and your Free T4 should be 1-2.0.  If it is lower,  you need more thyroid hormone or a different kind. Dosage Adjustments of Thyroid hormone replacement changes: In winter your need an increase in your dose to keep your warm!  The dosage should decrease when the weather gets warm.  Altitude requires more thyroid hormone replacement, so an increase in dose when you are in the mountains during any season. Supplements that assist your body in metabolizing thyroid hormone: Iodoral: 12.5 mg per am with food and a pinch of salt Magnesium Glycinate 200-400 mg per day to prevent palpitations Vitamin A 20,000 iu/day Vitamin C 500-1000/day Vitamin D 2000-5,000/day Vitamin E 400 mg/day Goal of Therapy: I think that symptoms are the most reliable measure of how adequate your thyroid dose is.  If your symptoms are gone and you have no side effects like anxiety or palpitations, then your dose should not be lowered.  Lack of symptoms is a sign of success, not a reason to decrease your dose and make you sick again!

El hipotiroidismo es una efermedad que cursa con una función alterada de la glándula tiroides, encargada de producir tiroxina (T4) y triyodotirnonina (T3), importantes para la regulación del metabolismo. Esto genera un enlentecimiento del metabolismo y la imposibilidad de llevar a cabo determinadas funciones.La prevalencia a partir de los 65 años es mayor y afecta a cerca del 10 % de la población general en España. o Puede ser hasta 10 veces más frecuente en mujeres que en hombres.Hay varios tipos de hipotiroidismo y por ello varias causas:- Hipotiroidismo de Hashimoto: se debe a una alteración del sistema inmunitario, en el que éste reacciona frente a la glándula tiroides (es una enfermedad autoinmune).- Hipotiroidismo secundario: se debe a una alteración en el eje hipófisis- hipotálamo, que evita la estimulación suficiente del tiroides para producir T3 y T4.- Hipotiroidismo subclínico: fallo ligero del tiroides, en el que la TSH está elevada y la T3/T4 normales. Se asocia a mayor riesgo cardiovascular, a niveles más altos de colesterol y de triglicéridos.Otras causas son:- Déficit de yodo en la alimentación.- Extirpación de la glándula tiroides.- Presencia de nódulos y/o tratamiento con radioterapia.- Uso de determinados fármacos.- Infecciones víricas.- Embarazo.

 You can reach Dr. Scott at: 757-363-8571 drmscott43@gmail.com http://thyroidvirginiabeach.com Welcome back to another Episode of Waist Away: The Intermittent Fasting Podcast! Today, Chantel is joined by Dr. Mark A. Scott! He has been in private practice here in Virginia Beach, VA since 1996. Chantel and Mark dive into 10 listener submitted questions in this thyroid information filled episode! Sit back, take some notes, and enjoy this Episode of the Intermittent Fasting Podcast! TIMECODES: Question 1- 3:22 Q: It seems like “Gluten-Free” is a big buzz word right now! A lot of my friends eat Gluten Free, and the other day my girl friend told me I should consider eating this way because of my thyroid issues. Could you explain how glutten affects your thyroid? Beth in Virginia Beach A: There is definitely a buzz going around about going gluten free these days! I tell people all the time that no foods should be off limits, UNLESS they negatively affect my body. As for me, I know that when I am only eating gluten in the 20 of my 80/20, my thyroid is going to trying to heal my thyroid, I cut gluten out completely, and went 100% Paleo. Is this sustainable? No, but I recommend people with Thyroid issues doing this for a limited time until they see improvement. Again, I eat gluten now, but it will be included in the 20% of my diet that I am not eating clean. Because of my thyroid issues, I feel better when I’ve cut out gluten, but I know that is not sustainable for the rest of my life, and I don’t like to ever feel deprived. Most doctors would agree that it is good for people with thyroid issues to eliminate or cut back on gluten. Although there are many factors involved in Hashimoto’s (which I was diagnosed with) and other autoimmune and thyroid-related conditions, going gluten-free can provide a huge benefit. Unfortunately, the evidence that those with Hashimoto’s benefit from a gluten-free diet is, so far, anecdotal. That doesn’t mean that it’s not true, just that it hasn’t yet been confirmed with science, or atleast any studies that I can find. My advice would be to try cutting it out for a short amount of time, and see how you feel! I am all about listening to your body! Question 2- 7:03 Q: My online research leads me to believe that I have thyroid issues, but I haven’t been to the doctor yet. Can you do an overview of the symptoms I should be keeping an eye on, and is there a way I can verify without going to the Doctor? Sarah in Arizona A: I compiled my top 10 Symptoms that I have noticed in myself and in others that I talk to. TIRED ALL THE TIME, even if you slept all night. Mood swings, depression or anxiety. Pain in the muscles and joints Being cold ALL the time, esp in your feet and hands. Weight gain, or being unable to lose weight. General hormonal issues- irregular periods, TERRIBLE PMS, low sex drive, and sadly, sometimes infertility Dry skin and hair, brittle nails Swelling in the neck Forgetfulness, haziness, or general brain fog 10.Constipation Those are the big things to look out for, but a lot of these symptoms can be the sign of something else as well, so I think it’s a great idea to check your thyroid at home. I recently purchased a Basal Body Temperature Thermometer. A lot of women use these when they are trying to get pregnant and are tracking their ovulation. They are more sensitive than a regular thermometer and allow you to track more closely.   Question 3- 13:50 Q: I’ve been taking Synthroid for almost a year now. Recently, I have read terrible things online about it. Should I try something more natural like Armor Thyroid? -Erin in Lynchburg A: A lot of people have complained of things like anxiety and irregular heart rate while on Synthroid. Some people also claim that Synthroid may actually worsen your condition, as the synthetic T4 may compete with your body's natural T4 for cellular receptor sites. I personally HATE taking medication of any kind, and hated that every time I went to the Doctor, he was upping my dose of Synthroid. I love that you are looking into a healthy alternatives, just like I was! In a previous podcast, I went deep on how I got myself off of Synthroid using Intermittent Fasting and a paleo diet. As for Armour Thyroid, I haven’t used this personally, but from what I understand, It is a natural product made from animal thyroid glands (usually a pig's). It replaces or provides more T3 and T4 hormones. When I did some research online, I found a lot of people still complaining of negative side effects still relating to their heartbeat, anxiety, periods, etc. Even though it is more natural than Synthroid and is natural, it is still a drug and in my opinion is still going to have some sort of side effect. I would recommend you give the Paleo diet a try if you are looking for the most natural way to get off those drugs, and definitely check out the podcast I did about this!   Question 4- 21:25 Q: What is the difference between T3, T4 and TSH? I’ve been trying to do some reading online all about thyroid and I am not understanding the difference between T3 T4 versus TSH. Can you explain these in an easy fashion where I can understand? -Angela in Pennsylvania A: So you’re your thyroid produces T3 and T4…a lot of people think that the TSH is a thyroid hormone, but it is ACTUALLY a pituitary hormone. TSH is your body’s gauge, or thermometer for the amount of thyroid hormones you have.  A lot of people also assume when their T3 and T4 are low that their TSH is also low, but the OPPOSITE is actually true. There is actually an INVERSE relationship between T3, T4, and TSH. So If your T3 and T4 are high, TSH will go down. And if your TSH is high, T3 and T4 will go down.  So if your pituitary gland senses that your Thyroid Hormones are low or high, it will send out TSH to help regulate it.   It’s actually pretty cool how these two types or hormones work together! Question 5- 27:29 Q: I am having trouble pooping since I’ve been doing intermittent fasting. I’ve always been a terrible pooper, and my thyroid is acting up. Do you think me not pooping has anything to do with my thyroid? Anonymous A: Yes, this absolutely has to do with your thyroid, because your thyroid issues will make you constipated! This is one of my least favorite symptoms of my thyroid issues! Constipation is a classic sign of hypothyroidism. Without enough thyroid hormone, many of the body’s functions slow down, and your digestive track is one of them, as it can weaken the contraction of the muscles lining the tract. Sometimes when I am really struggling and need to go, I will take a fiber drink like Metamucil which helps me. Coffee with coconut oil also helps me get moving, and of course, you will want to make sure you are drinking plenty of water. Question 6- 33:37 Q: I got some blood work done on my liver, and my doctor said that my liver is not in good shape. Do you think that has anything to do with my thyroid ? -Tracy in Chesapeake A: This is such a great question! There are so many people walking around with a thyroid problem but its secondary, or caused by  something else. The liver and thyroid work closely together since the liver converts thyroid hormones. 80% of thyroid functions actually occur through your liver. T4, one of the thyroid hormones we talked about earlier, is actually INACTIVE until the liver activates it to become T-3. So without a liver you cannot convert and make your thyroid work. If  your liver is damaged, chances are that is the source of your thyroid problem. If you have constipation that blocks your liver, that can also be a source of thyroid problems. It’s so amazing the way each part of our body is designed to work closely together. Question 7- 36:24 Q: I’ve noticed lately that my nails are super brittle and they have these little lines on them..I started doing some research online and it seems it could be thyroid related? I read that thyroid issues can also make your skin and hair dry- which mine are! Am I overanalyzing this too much…do I just need some lotion and a manicure! LOL Or do you think this is truly thyroid related? -Ashlyn in North Carolina A: Absolutely this is thyroid related. If there is a problem with a low thyroid, 1,000 enzymes will be blocked. That’s why you don’t have proteins to make healthy hair, you get vertical ridges on your nails, you get cold feet, you have problems with depression, you are tired, have decreased libido, digestive problems, constipation, you crave carbs! All of the symptoms we have previously discussed in this podcast.  So yes, some lotion and a manicure would help but you should definitely take a look at the deeper issue and look at naturally curing your thyroid. Question 8- 38:41 Q: How do I know when I started in a fat burning state? -Tara in Charleston A:  There is no scientific or precise way to figure this out, but what I recommend is to listen for your stomach growling because that’s when you know that your body is emptied out. The reason your stomach growls is because it’s your signal saying  HEY MY STOMACH IS EMPTY! The growling noise is your stomach contracting as it tries to find any food to eat that it may have missed earlier! This process cleans up any food that was missed earlier. When these muscle contractions get going again and your stomach is empty, those gas and air pockets make a lot more noise that you hear as stomach growling. I recommend waiting about two hours after your stomach growls to eat! It  s a great way to burn fat because during that two hours your body  diving into your fat cells and eating your fat for fuel! It is important that you are able to differentiate the sound of your body digesting food right after you ate, versus the empty, hollow sound of a true stomach growl. Question 9- 44:49 Q: Hey guys, I’m so thankful to have your show during my morning commute. Maybe it’s a synchronicity, but most of the questions I have about IF always seem to be answered in your podcast.  I’ve been doing IF for about 3 weeks now, and it’s definitely working for me. I’ve found that I have more energy and I am SOO much less crabby and cranky throughout the day.  I know you’ve mentioned PCOS in previous podcasts, and the advice was super helpful. I’ve recently starting feeling some changes in the way my body feels that I relate to my cycle: tender bosom (I love using that word whenever I get the chance lol), slight cramping, and other PMS-like symptoms (mood and cravings). I had my cycle just before starting IF, so experiencing these symptoms this “soon” is a bit out of character for my body. I have extremely irregular periods and I’m curious to know what about IF contributes to managing PCOS, if anything at all. I also was curious to know if you have ever heard of taking Metformin for PCOS (I’m not a diabetic, nor do I have any other ailments, outside of PCOS.) My midwife/nurse practitioner (I’m not pregnant, just prefer a midwife over doc for womanly care) suggests I should take Metformin to help regulate my periods, as an option outside of BC. I’m a little unsure if I want to go this route as I am usually hesitant to take medications “unnecessarily.” I’m not severely afflicted w/ PCOS, but it definitely causes me to be very irregular in my cycle. Do you think this could interfere with my IF journey, or do you think it could be an assistant to the benefits of IF? Any advice/info/opinions you have would be awesome! Jazzmin - MiamiA: Congratulations on 3 weeks of IF! I am so happy to hear that you are seeing great results. Keep up the great work! So PCOS is something that I have struggled with, and we discuss it in good detail in a previous podcast, which Jazzmin is referring to. If you missed that one, definitely go back and listen! The first part of the question, you’re talking about how you feel as if you are starting your period a little early, since you had one right before starting IF and have been doing it for 3 weeks. Most people will find that anytime you dramatically change your eating habits, IE going full Paleo, or cutting out carbs, etc, or change your eating patterns, IE Intermittent Fasting, you will see a little shift in your period. When I first started IF I noticed my period was irregular for a few months until it finally balanced out, it has been super regular ever since! The reason for this is really simple and actually good! Fat stores estrogen, so any time you start disrupting your fat stores, you are likely to have some cycle disruption as well. So while an early period may stink, it means that your body is eating it’s fat stores! Stick it out, and you will find that it regulates soon. As for Metformin, I have heard of people taking this as an alternative to birth control. It has not been approved by the FDA for treatment of PCOS, but many doctors are prescribing it for PCOS treatment because women with PCOS often have elevated insulin levels and are more likely to develop diabetes. SO…it will definitely help! But You will not enjoy some of the other “benefits” of Birth Control such as…..birth control LOL obviously, it won’t prevent pregnancy, and also it won’t help you with the excess facial hair that many women with PCOS experience. But you also won’t have to worry about the negative effects of birth control that some people complain about such as  weight gain, and more dangerous, blood clots. As Metformin relates to IF, I can’t find any research that leads me to believe that it would interfere with IF in a negative way. But, I do recommend taking it with your first meal of the day, and not on an empty stomach. Like I mentioned in the podcast where we talked about  PCOS, and as my doctor told me, if you struggle with PCOS the absolute best thing you can do for your body is to be at your ideal “healthy” weight and I am not sure where you are weight wise, but I know that since you started your IF journey three weeks ago, you are well on your way if not there already.  Question 10- 51:07 Q: I have noticed I am staying up a lot later at night not sure if it is from the IF?  Perhaps I have more energy or something and sometimes it is hard to wind down.  Right now it is after 1 am and a few nights I was up to after 3 and could not fall asleep until around 4 or 5.  I already have to take 50 mg of lorazepam most nights to stop me from thinking so I can sleep.  It would be great if I could get off of that also.  I have only had to take it for the last several years, I am 61.  Before that I slept just fine.  I don't drink much coffee maybe half a cup twice a day especially on the days I did not get enough sleep.  I also try to do 1 cup of decaf green tea and sometimes one of the sleepy time teas later in the evening.  I can go several days with no coffee so not sure why I am wound up longer at night?  Any guidance is appreciated. Thanks again so much!  Have a blessed weekend! Jean A: Well Jean, you are a lot like me!!! As I say over and over again, I hate taking drugs unnecessarily too, and I can relate to you wanting to get off that Lorazepam. You didn’t mention in the question how long you have been Intermittent Fasting, but if you are newer to the Intermittent Fasting lifestyle, unfortunately this can be normal while your body gets adjusted. I’ve heard several reasons for this, one is that when you are fasting your body is hyped up on adrenaline. You didn’t mention what exactly your eating window is, but if you are eating your last meal 4-5 hours before bedtime, you could try bumping your eating window up an hour or so later and seeing if this helps. Another reason is increased caffeine intake- a lot of people will drink extra caffeine when they are fasting, but it sounds like this is not the issue for you, you’ve really cut back on your caffeine intake, it sounds. The only thing I would say in that department is maybe stick to strictly sleepy time tea in the evening, as sometimes even in Decaf Green Tea there will be traces of caffeine. You didn’t mention in your question if you work out or not, but if you are working out in the second half of the day, you may find that this is making it difficult for you to wind down. I recommend working out in the morning if your schedule allows..I start my day with a workout at 5:45 every day and for this reason, I NEVER have an issue falling asleep at night! Overall, I think that as your body becomes more accustomed to the Intermittent Fasting lifestyle, you will find yourself sliding back into your old sleeping patterns. In the meantime, you could also take something natural like Melatonin, or try something I LOVE to do at night, and that is to diffuse Lavender essential oils by my bed.

Normalisierung des T3/T4-Quotienten im Serum bei Struma-Patienten unter Kaliumjodid

Bei 16 Patienten mit blander Struma kam es bereits nach 4-wöchentlicher Behandlung mit täglich nur 200 µg Kaliumjodid zu einer Normalisierung des zuvor erhöhten T3/T4-Quotienten. Die TSH-Spiegel zeigten unter dieser Kaliumjodidbehandlung dagegen keine meßbaren Veränderungen. Die Schilddrüse besitzt demnach offensichtlich auch beim Menschen die Fähigkeit, die Synthese und Sekretion der beiden Schilddrüsenhormone T3 und T4 unabhängig vom TSH der jeweiligen Jodzufuhr anzupassen (sog. Autoregulation der jeweiligen Jodzufuhr anzupassen (sog. Autoregulation der Schilddrüse).
