Thyroid condition

The text I tried to extract from video, might not be exactly accurate, it is better to view the video. 

How to Identify the Root Cause Of Your Thyroid Condition

Doctors run thyroid test, TSH (one small piece of the puzzle), too high or too low, adjust medication accordingly. But there's so much more to the picture, to get thyroid hormone into your cell to activate metabolism. Every cell in your body has a receptor site for the thyroid hormone. Brain activate thyroid to get hormone into the cell - liver, adrenals, cortisol, metabolism cell, gut and brain comes into the picture.

Brain receives information from thyroid sometimes from cell, more or less thyroid hormone,  secretes TSH. TSH will go thyroid gland secretes T4.

T4→Liver→Gut →Convert T3

Cell to receive T3, then metabolism can happen

If T4/T3 imbalance, which organ/ part to work on: 

TSH too low → Brain

T4 not convert to T3→ Liver / Gut

T3, T4, TSH in balance, still feel crummy→ T3 not into cell

Part of Brain control TSH is pituitary gland, if struggle to get TSH right, good chance is toxic environment exposure.
TSH/T4 is balance, not enough T3, think of liver and gut, conversion happens T4 to T3. Ketogenic dieet, fasting repair gut. Liver, castor oil pack, coffee enemas. 

If all numbers are fine, and enough T3, look at cells. 

Metabolism cell open

1) Good fat not bad fats

2) Bring inflammation down, bring sugar level down

3) Environmental Toxin block receptors metabolism cell, hormone disruptor, BPA plastic, heavy metals, PCBs in meats, pesticides in non organic food, flame retardants, anti-bacterial soaps and handwashs , soy products, fluoride. etc.

Heal your gut/ metabolism cell

But if adrenals, stress → reverse T3 → Cortisol goes up, shut down weight loss

Which Fast Is Best For Your Thyroid?

6 Steps

1) Know your numbers, 11 different blood test, there's a link. Have a detailed analysis, which organ is malfunctioning. 

2) End results accomplish with fasting & thyroid, bring cellular inflammation down. Reduce inflammation is always the end game.

3) Understand the detox effect of fasting. 

4) Ramadan research, there's minimal changes T3,T4,TSH. T4 can decrease alittle bit, TSH goes up from Ramadan fast. Once food is introduced, T4 and TSH goes back to normal. Concerned about fasting harming thyroid but research is not showing, a temporary change but goes back to what the value was before.

5) Will Fasting affect medicine? Let doctor (thryoid) know if you going on fasting, might need medication modification , involve them.

6) Which fast?

1. Bloodwork normal, thyroid but you have all the symptoms of a thyroid problem → lower cell inflammation with intermittent fasting daily

2. TSH normal, T4 normal, not enough T3 → 24 hour, fast repair gut, 36 hour fast heal the liver, remove excess sugar

3. Thyroid antibodies / Hashimotos → 24 hours fast heal gut and detox

4. TSH high, TSH and T4 issues → Autophagy fasting (17hrs) thyroid detox, know more about detox reset for the rest of the life

5. High reverse T3 → adrenal stress, too much stress - Don't fast, push breakfast back 1 hour, repair adrenals

What's The Best Diet For Your Thyroid?

This video about health of Liver and Gut, make sure convert T4 to T3, get into cell to create metabolic effect.

1) Have to have proper amount of calories. Starvation mode when calories restriction, increase cortisol, encourage reverse T3, do not convert T4 into T3. Don't stay in starvation. 

2) Carbs: Liver needs insulin to convert T4 to T3.

3) Liver: Food that support a healthy liver. 5 Nutrients

1. Glutathione - cruciferous vegetables,eggs 2. Amino acid - organ meat, grass fed meats 3. Enzymes - beets 4. Zinc - oyster, beef, crab, pumpkin seeds,cashews and chickpeas 5. Selenium - brazil nuts, tuna, halibut, sardines, turkey, and beef liver. 

4) Support healthy gut: prebiotic, probiotic, polyphenol foods

5) Avoid inflammatory Foods

Wrong oils: soya bean, canola, vegetable oil

Processed food
