Thyroid
“I knew something wasn’t right. I had my Thyroid checked but my doctor said I was normal. Then why do I feel so bad?”
When your thyroid doesn't function optimally you don't feel your best.
Can you relate?
- Are you the lady who brings a sweater everywhere, even in July?
- Have you gained weight even though your eating and exercise habits haven't changed?
- Are you always tired and exhausted, especially at the end of the day and need more sleep?
- Do you have brain fog, you search for words or walk into a room and forget why you were going there in the first place?
- Are you more anxious or depressed or feeling “blue” when this previously hasn’t been an issue in your life?
- Do you notice when you get up from sitting for an extended period, you’re a little stiffer or achy and need to “walk it off” for a few minutes?
Whether you recognize one or a few of these symptoms, you may have a thyroid issue. You may have talked to your medical provider who said you were “normal” based on your blood tests. Optimal thyroid function is more complicated than one blood test result. We listen to you and get to the root of your symptoms. Only then do we tailor our approach to optimal thyroid function for you.
Thyroid and Your Health
Your thyroid is very important in regulating a myriad of functions throughout your body. It is a gland located at the base of your neck and controls your digestive system, metabolism and how you use calories, cardiovascular system, mood and energy level, brain function, and so much more. It’s the conductor of your hormonal symphony!
When it is not functioning optimally, you don’t feel your best. Frequently, you are fatigued and have gained some weight. When you visit your healthcare provider they draw a screening lab, TSH, and it comes back “normal”. So you are having symptoms, but fit the criteria of “normal” even though you feel anything but “normal.” I hear this all the time! The normal rage is very broad and doesn’t mean you are functioning optimally.
We look at the root cause of your thyroid issues and work with you to restore your thyroid back to health. Here are reasons your thyroid may not function optimally:
- Your Gut is out of balance causing inflammation that directly affects your thyroid and Immune system causing an autoimmune condition called Hashimoto's Disease.
- Stress slows down the conversion to T3, slowing down your metabolism.
- Estrogen Dominance blocks some of the thyroid hormones from performing their duties.
- Nutrient deficiencies that prevent your thyroid from functioning optimally.
- Inflammation Your thyroid may not be the problem but is suffering the consequences of some other imbalance. That is why we take a root cause approach to you and your health
