Mark's Daily Apple Thursday, November 10, 2022 11:00 AM Today I'm pleased to bring you a post from my longtime friend and Primal supporter Elle Russ. Elle has long worked to help people with thyroid conditions advocate for themselves and find their way back to better health. Now she has a new course that is sure to help many more. Check it out! Throughout my life I have come to realize that no one cares more about your health and wellbeing than you. This is why, in the event that you get diagnosed with a disease or health condition, it is critical to learn all that you can about the topic—because you might be able to help yourself by helping your doctor help you. It is called the "practice of medicine" for good reason… science and medicine evolve and change over time but unfortunately, uninformed doctors do not grow and change with it. When you dive deep into whatever is ailing you, often you can learn something that can help your doctor practice medicine with you and move beyond their shallow understanding of a medical topic. Such is the case with thyroid conditions. There are too many doctors practicing outdated conventional thyroid wisdom, and as a result, hypothyroid patients are still suffering. Some patients lament, "I have been struggling with thyroid issues for 15 years!" No one should ever struggle for years and years, because every single thyroid condition is fixable. EVERY SINGLE THYROID CONDITION IS FIXABLE. IF YOU HAVE NOT FIXED YOUR THYROID ISSUES YET - IT IS LIKELY DUE TO ONE (OR BOTH) OF THESE REASONS: You are dealing with an uninformed doctor, endocrinologist or practitioner who is clueless about how to solve it. YOU are uninformed about your disease and therefore cannot help yourself nor help your doctor practice medicine with you in order to fix it. Anyone struggling with thyroid issues for years is solely the result of being with a doctor who is uninformed about ordering the correct lab work, properly diagnosing and accurately assessing that lab work, and then treating the patient effectively and efficiently. You also need to be informed in order to solve hypothyroidism, Hashimoto's, reverse T3 hypothyroidism, post radioactive iodine treatment (RAI), post thyroidectomy (removal of the thyroid gland often due to thyroid cancer), and Graves disease (hyperthyroidism). Thyroid 101 The thyroid is the master gland of the human body. The thyroid gland controls the metabolic rate of every organ in the body, from the production and regulation of sex hormones, adrenal hormones, body temperature, growth development, brain function, and heart rate to every other element that keeps your body functioning. Inadequate thyroid hormones in the human body will ultimately contribute to a miserable existence, likely rampant with diseases, health problems, and accelerated aging. Over 200 million people worldwide and over 25 million Americans have some form of thyroid disease, yet 60% are undiagnosed and unaware of their condition. Undiagnosed or mistreated hypothyroidism can put people at risk for serious conditions, such as depression, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, type … Continue reading "Becoming Your Own Thyroid Advocate" The post Becoming Your Own Thyroid Advocate appeared first on Mark's Daily Apple. |
