What thyroid medication are you on?
Did you know some thyroid medications can be causing your symptoms?!
Yep, you heard that right. If you're experiencing unexplained symptoms such heart palpitations, headaches, fatigue, and other mysterious symptoms that don't really point to thyroid symptoms it could be your medication.
So, what should you do?
FIRST, make an appointment with your Endocrinologist. Tell them what you're experiencing and make them run a FULL thyroid panel which includes:
-TSH
-FREE T3
-FREE T4
-Thyroid Antibodies (TPO and TG)
-Reverse T3
If you've been on your thyroid medication for more than 10+ years and it's ALL of a sudden giving you problems, it's time to change.
My recommendations for Hypothyroid Medication is an NDT thyroid hormone like NP Thyroid or Armour.
I recently learned a great deal about a new non-NDT thyroid medication called Liothyronine. It seems to have promising results in terms of relieving your thyroid symptoms in the short run!
Talk to your doctor about it BUT if your goal is to begin to lose weight, get off medication eventually, and heal your other thyroid symptoms via FOODS please check out these VALUABLE resources:
It's time that you NOT only leverage the pharmaceutical effects as treatment BUT it's time to start learning how to use food as medicine.

I have something special coming on Thursday. I'll spill the beans to you tomorrow. 🤗
Take care,

Hi Reader, The real question you should be asking your doctor is NOT how do I just manage this but how can I put it in remission? Honestly, these cases are just so few. Less than 5% of women with thyroid disease are truly able to put it in remission! Why?! Because NO ONE is sharing how it's possible. We're often told, "Medication for life!" and "There is no "cure." In today's newsletter I want to share with you how NOT only is this possible but the lifestyle domains to focus on in order to...
