www.painfreeidaho.com Functional thyroid disorders are very common and generally overlooked in today’s healthcare model. Most patients that have functional thyroid imbalances do not have primary thyroid imbalances. Thyroid metabolism is very sensitive to slight alterations in metabolism. Thyroid hormone synthesis is altered by luteal phase function, progesterone, and autoimmunity, etc. Thyroid hormone binding is influenced by essential fatty acid metabolism, testosterone, estrogen, etc. Thyroid hormone peripheral conversion is dependent on proper 5′diodinase activity and can be altered by cortisol, estrogen, hepatic dysfunction, dysbiosis, etc. Thyroid hormone receptor binding and response may be altered by inflammation, vitamin A status, and essential fatty acid levels, etc. In this section of the notes we will briefly review thyroid hormone physiology, laboratory markers for thyroid evaluation, nutrients to support the thyroid, exogenous thyroid hormone replacement, and drugs that alter thyroid metabolism. Thyroid Physiology Review Once the thyroid is stimulated by Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) from the pituitary, it produces thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3) by transporting iodine into the thyroid and by stimulating Thyroid Peroxidase Activity (TPO). TPO is involved in the formation of T4 and T3 as it catalyzes the oxidation of iodine using hydrogen peroxide. The thyroid will produce 94% of the available T4 and 7% of the available T3. As we know, T4 is …

Hi, this is Larry Hobbs @ FatNews.com. fatnews.com larryhobbs@fatnews.com This is from Mark Starr, MD’s book Hypothyroidism Type 2: The Epidemic. Dr. [Broda] Barnes believe diabetes was due in large part to hypothyroidism, Dr. Starr wrote (p. 41). almost all the complications from diabetes are due to hardening of the arteries or atherosclerosis. (p. 42) These complications include blindness, kidney failure, heart attacks, gangrene, and nerve damage. (p. 42) Diabetics suffer accelerated atherosclerosis identical to that associated with hypothyroidism. (p. 42) new cases of diabetes were very rare among Dr. [Broda] Barnes patients being treated for hypothyroidism. (p. 42) a significant number of patients with diabetes sought [Dr. Broda Barnes] help. (p. 42) After many years of practice, [Dr. Barnes] realized that NONE of his patients with diabetes had developed ANY of the typical or more advanced complications from their illness. (p. 42) This had previously been reported in 1954 by Crosby D. Eaton, MD, but ignored. Dr. Eaton had written a paper titled Coexistence of Hypothyroidism with Diabetes Mellitus (1954). The study included several hundred diabetic patients of all ages who were treated for years, Dr. Starr continues (p. 42). Dr. Eaton realize the vast majority of his diabetic patients also suffered hypothyroidism. (p. 42) [Dr. Eaton] administered desiccated thyroid hormones with no adverse effects upon their diabetic control. (p. 42) [Dr. Eaton] reported a vastly …

I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism about a year and a half ago. I have since been trying to find a stable dose of synthyroid with my endocrinologist. He believes that the 100 mg dose I am on now may be suffienct. I only have to see him twice a year now, instead of blood work every 6 weeks and an office visit every three months. I still don’t feel like my old self. I will admit that I feel about 80% better than I did, but the feelings of anxiety and depression are still lingering, worse sometimes than others. I am looking for your experineces with the illness, how you coped with it all, and how long after you were stable on your medication that you felt like your old self again. I have thought this whole time that something more serious is wrong with me, only my doctors can’t find out what it is. Did any of you feel this way? Thanks for the help.

My thryoid levels come back normal, but I have the symptoms of hypothyroidism. I am overweight, cold all the time, have dry skin, feel sluggish, have a "full" feeling in my throat…I desperately want to lose weight but don’t know if that is even a possibility if I have a thyroid problem and my doc won’t treat it because my blood results are normal.

What could I do to lose weight?
