Hyperthyroid (Overactive)
By: Articles by a Naturopathic Doctor (N.D.)
Aggravated by stress, an overactive thyroid is sometimes difficult to treat, but by controlling the level of stress through proper diet, exercise, lifestyle changes and the right supplements you can make a difference...
The thyroid gland sets the metabolic rate for the body. An overactive thyroid causes the body to work too quickly resulting in nervousness, tremors, sleeplessness, palpitations, sweating, fever,
diarrhea
and increased appetite with paradoxical weight loss. This over excitability can eventually lead to death from exhaustion of the body.
A dangerous increase in blood pressure may also result. A hyperthyroid period often precedes hypothyroidism as the gland makes one last attempt to maintain functioning before shutting down.
Grave’s disease is an autoimmune condition that commonly causes hyperthyroidism. Other suspected causes of hyperthyroidism are food sensitivities, mercury poisoning, extreme stress, hormonal imbalances, bowel infections and
leaky gut
syndrome.
Conventional treatment of hyperthyroidism involves thyroid-blocking medications. In some cases surgery or gland irradiation is performed. This then leaves the individual in a hypothyroid state. They must replace the thyroid hormone with synthetic thyroid. This is better for the body than remaining in a hyperthyroid state.
Natural treatment of hyperthyroidism involves identifying food allergens, assessing for metal toxicity, using natural thyroid suppressors and supporting the body with vitamins and minerals. Eat lots of whole and fresh foods to replace the nutrients lost to excessive metabolism. They also provide
enzymes
to help food digestion. Use green vegetables, whole grains and nutritional yeast for B vitamins.
Eat
broccoli, brussel
sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower,
kale, peaches, pears, rutabagas, soybeans, onions, spinach and turnips because they suppress thyroid hormone function. Avoid iodized salt, coffee, black tea, chocolate and colas, which speed up metabolism. Avoid the most common food allergens for hyperthyroid patients, which are dairy products, wheat,
caffeine
and nicotine products.
Nutritional support for hyperthyroidism consists of providing the body with optimum doses of nutrients that it needs to cope with stress and providing nutrients that this disorder depletes. Of these, the
B complex
vitamins are very important, as both your brain and your stress glands need them to function properly.
People with an overactive thyroid can often be deficient in these nutrients. You might also consider herbs that help you to relax naturally without side effects.
Proper sleep and moderate exercise help regulate thyroid functioning. So does controlling the stress you experience in your life. If you have an overactive thyroid and your stress level is very high, you need to make some lifestyle changes or learn to adapt to the stress more effectively.
Hypothyroid (Under Active)
By: Articles by a Naturopathic Doctor (N.D.)
Often misdiagnosed as simple depression, low thyroid can respond well to lifestyle changes, the right diet, and the proper supplements...
Low thyroid has become a very common health concern with very real symptoms that affect both a person’s physical as well as emotional health. Many people may have it yet do not know; in fact, it can go undiagnosed for many years because the “normal” level of
thyroid hormones
can vary from person to person.
Many natural health care practitioners prefer the reliability of the basal temperature test (done in the morning) because it can identify people with borderline low thyroid. Low thyroid causes the body to be slightly colder than a healthy person. While only the difference of at the most two degrees, it can have broad ranging effects on many different functions of the body resulting in many different symptoms.
Firstly, in a hypothyroid state the body’s metabolic rate is decreased. This is why most people with low thyroid experience weight gain. Secondly, lower levels of thyroid hormones can affect the production of neurotransmitters and how well they are used in the brain and other parts of the body - this can lead to common low thyroid symptoms like depression, anxiety, poor memory, and
insomnia. In this respect, it can also affect digestion because enzymes, just like neurotransmitters, do not function as they should when the body temperature is lowered - this can result in poor digestion of food, which can be manifested as gas, upset stomach, heartburn or
constipation. The hormone insulin (responsible for regulating the level of sugar in the blood) is equally affected lower temperatures in the body and explains why many with low thyroid often experience fluctuations in blood sugar like yo-yoing effect of
hypoglycemia. Some of these may need to be treated along with the low thyroid.
