Why is this Program the need of the hour?
Thyroid disease and other autoimmune diseases have steadily been on the rise, and allopathic treatment is currently limited to drugs and surgery that have potentially serious side effects without addressing the root causes of the disorder.
Did you know?
1. More than 12% of the U.S. population will develop a thyroid condition during their lifetime.
2. An estimated 20 million Americans have some form of thyroid disease.
3. Up to 60% of those with thyroid disease are unaware of their condition.
4. Women are 5 to 8 times more likely than men to have thyroid problems.
5. 1 woman in 8 will develop a thyroid disorder during her lifetime.
6. Undiagnosed thyroid disease may put patients at risk for certain serious conditions, such as cardiovascular diseases, osteoporosis and infertility.
7. Pregnant women with undiagnosed or inadequately treated hypothyroidism have an increased risk of miscarriage, preterm delivery, and severe developmental problems in their children.
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.
Optimal functioning of Thyroid is critical for healthy life. Someone who has had the thyroid gland removed will need a daily dose of thyroid hormone for life.
"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:
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 and Hot Flashes
• Sensitivity to heat and Sweating
• Headache, Nervousness and Irritability
• Nausea and Insomnia
• Changes in appetite or changes in weight
• Changes in menstrual periods
• 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.
THE ROOT CAUSES OF THYROID ARE...
To efficiently tackle thyroid disorders, you have to know the 12 potential root causes, and which of them are specifically affecting you:
GENETIC TENDENCY is not DESTINY, and there’s a lot that you can do to prevent the manifestation of thyroid disease, even with a genetic predisposition.
Common nutritional deficiency of Vitamin D, Vitamin B12, Magnesium, or Zinc can contribute to thyroid disorders.
There is a category of foods that are known as “goitrogens,” and these foods can interfere with the production of thyroid hormone.
Too much or too little iodine in your body can cause thyroid problems. If Halogen levels are too high they can affect the function of your thyroid.
The problem is that the stress of modern life leads to people being in a “fight or flight” state most of the time.
Optimal adrenal function in addition to good thyroid function is a prerequisite to having full energy and vitality.
Many of the root causes that we have just talked about can trigger inflammation in the body. These include food intolerances, infections, and leaky gut syndrome, injuries, dietary indiscretion, and a pro-inflammatory diet.
