Thyroid is needed for metabolism, what’s more, some thyroid medications actually cause weight gain. If you know of someone with a thyroid issue PLEASE send them a link to today’s blog post so they can check out the resources I am linking for their benefit.įor women with thyroid issues it is especially difficult to lose weight. I have a message to give that can HELP people, but I apparently cannot reach the masses quick enough. Yes, you may detect a little bit of frustration in my post today.
PEOPLE – if we don’t self-educate ourselves and rely soley on our doctors with their Rx band-aid approach – our bodies are NOT going to be cured! The latter surprises me not one bit, yet it seems there has been no effort to read any of the resources I have provided. One just diagnosed with thyroid cancer, another is a continual conversation with the mother and mainstream medicine is not making a difference – her daughter has not experienced improvement and there are all sorts of issues.
In the past 48 hours I have met or had conversations with or about 4 women with serious thyroid issues. I doubt anyone thinks of thyroid disorders as being an epidemic - but it certainly is becoming one! I haven’t made tally marks or charted the number of women I have met in the past two years with thyroid issues, as compared to those who do not, but if I had to guess – I would say 1 in 5 of the women I meet are taking thyroid medication for hypothyroid – that is, their body does not produce enough thyroid hormone on its own. When you see that word what probably comes to mind is typhoid or AIDS.
