Looking back, and knowing what I do now, I could have saved myself a world of trouble.
To say that I made my fair share of mistakes when I first began dealing with my own thyroid issues would be an understatement.
Yet, that’s also why I’ve spent years devoting my life to helping hypothyroidism sufferers.
I don’t want […]
Has your thyroid test come back as “normal” while you continue suffering from thyroid symptoms?
Then you’ve probably heard it from your doctor…
“Your TSH is normal, there’s nothing wrong with your thyroid.”
Yet, you know something isn’t right.
I’ve heard this same story from my clients so many times it makes me wonder how much longer until this […]
Wednesday, here in the United States, we celebrate the 4th of July, which for most people means a day off of work to relax, have fun, and enjoy time with family and friends.
While many of us enjoy the opportunity to let go of the mental stress of work and everyday life, we quickly forget how […]
So, I’ll come right out and say it…
If you’re trying to lower your blood pressure through salt restriction or diuretics, then you’re in for a big surprise.
When working with clients, I see both low and high blood pressure.
It’s all about how YOUR body compensates for YOUR hypothyroidism, which is different from one person to the […]
Everyone knows that protein is important for thyroid health.
Yet, did you know that some protein sources can cause more harm than good?
That’s right.
Just trying to get more protein into your diet isn’t enough.
The source of that protein matters and is important too.
When it comes to protein powders, there are literally dozens of different types […]
Have you ever been really thirsty?
Maybe you’ve spent the day outside in the hot summer sun.
Or, maybe you’ve been drenched in sweat after physical activity.
Nobody questions a sign of thirst as a potentially harmful craving or addiction.
Thirst is simply a sign from your body that you need more water.
And because water is considered “healthy”, you […]
I’ll start this post with a warning…
The topic of hypothyroidism and anxiety is beyond complex. Trying to consume everything at once would be like trying to drink from a fire-hose. Instead, this post will be divided into parts as we peel back the many layers of anxiety and show you how you can overcome it.
Before […]
Is a high-protein diet good for your thyroid?
Well, that’s a difficult question to answer, because it really depends on what else you’re eating with all that protein.
If you’re eating one of those high-protein, low-carbohydrate diets, then I’m sorry to say, but your diet is definitely suppressing your thyroid.
Yet, even if you’re eating carbohydrates but practicing […]
What if doctors have it all wrong?
Well, it wouldn’t be the first time.
In the 1800’s doctors recommended cough syrup containing heroin.
Is that a chronic cough, or are you just addicted to your cough syrup?
In the 1940’s, mental disorders including depression and anxiety were being treated with frontal lobotomies.
You don’t really need that part of your […]
