Could you have a low or underactive thyroid and not know it?

Autoimmune conditions affecting the thyroid have been on the rise, and can contribute to fatigue, weight gain, aches and pains, low moods, low sex drive, problems with concentration, and many other physical and emotional symptoms.

Symptoms like these can impact your work performance and your relationships. If you’re suffering from any of them now or have experienced them from time to time, you know how they can color your daily experience of life.

The thyroid is a butterfly shaped gland located in the neck, just below the Adam’s apple. In spite of being the size of a walnut, it is extremely powerful and important for health. It is a part of your endocrine system, a collection of glands that are hormone producing, and include your thyroid, adrenal, pancreas, ovaries, testicles, etc.

However, while you can live without an ovary or a testicle, you cannot live without your thyroid’s hormones. Someone who has had the thyroid gland removed will need a daily dose of thyroid hormone for life.

It regulates temperature, metabolism, and cellular function in every part of the body. The thyroid affects every single one of your 100 trillion cells. You can think of it like a gas pedal for the body.

There are a large number of different possible symptoms that can result from low thyroid:

Here are some more physical signs that go along with low thyroid:

Low basal body temperature. The normal temperature should be at least 98.6, if you are more than one full degree below that consistently, then that is unusual and could be a sign of thyroid issues.
Diminished reflexes in the lower legs and/or ankles
Extremely dry, rough or coarse skin
Swelling of the hands or feet, eyelids or bags under the eyes, or the face – the thyroid plays a very important role in fluid balance
Enlargement, asymmetry or nodules in the thyroid gland – these can be palpated during examination of the patient
Significant muscle weakness, in severe cases

Isn’t there a pill for that?

The standard treatment for low thyroid involves daily use of the synthetic thyroid hormone levothyroxine (Levothroid, Synthroid, others)… but there are two significant problems with this approach.

Problem #1: There Can Be Side Effects

Determining the proper dosage of this drug can take time, and you have to take the drug for LIFE. The drug can have interactions with other drugs, and there are potential side effects, including:

Fever
Hot Flashes
Sensitivity to heat
Sweating
Headache
Nervousness
Irritability
Nausea
Insomnia
Changes in appetite or changes in weight
Changes in menstrual periods
and Temporary hair loss

Problem #2: Drugs Don’t Address the ROOT CAUSES of Low Thyroid

Since drugs can’t address the root causes of low thyroid, they may alleviate symptoms while the underlying pathology continues to progress.

This means that you are likely to experience worsening health issues over time that may become harder to treat.

Obviously, this is UNACCEPTABLE.
