In this video, weâre going to talk all about the thyroid.
There are two primary types of thyroid issuesâhypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism. âHypoâ means that your thyroid is not producing enough hormones. âHyperâ means that your thyroid is producing too many hormones.
Hypothyroidism is related to Hashimotoâs disease about 90% of the time. Hyperthyroidism is related to Gravesâ disease about 80% of the time.
Hypothyroidism occurs 8x more in women. Hyperthyroidism is 8.5x more likely in women between 40 and 60 years of age.
Women who have recently given birth are at a higher risk of developing Hashimotoâs or hypothyroidism. The risk of developing Gravesâ disease is also 7x more likely after giving birth. This suggests that estrogen is involved.
Estrogen blocks the conversion of T4 to T3 (these are vital thyroid hormones).
When testing T3 and T4 levels, itâs best to do whatâs called a free T4/T3 testâthis is far more accurate than other tests.
TSH (thyroid-stimulating hormone) is actually a pituitary hormone. Normal levels of this hormone are between 0.45 and 2.5. However, some consider levels between 0.4 and 5.0 to be normal.
T4 is the inactive thyroid hormone, and T3 is the active form. The conversion must take place to use this hormone. Some thyroid hormone replacements are the inactive formâwhich isnât helpful unless your body can do the conversion.
These are the best remedies for hypothyroid issues:
âą Selenium
âą Zinc
âą Vitamin D
âą Sea kelp
âą Bile salts
These are the best remedies for hyperthyroid issues:
âą Vitamin D
âą Vitamin B1

Thanks for watching. I hope this helped give you some ideas on what to do for thyroid problems. See you in the next video.
welcome back today we're going to talk about the thyroid i have some interesting information i'm going to try to keep this really really simple if you have a thyroid problem this video is for you i've done a lot of videos in the past on the thyroid this one comes in at a slightly different angle okay so we have two different situations with the thyroid we have a thyroid condition we have not enough hormones it's called a hypothyroidism and then a condition where you have too many hormones that's called a hyper thyroidism okay now with a hypo 90 of the time it's going to be hashimoto's that's an autoimmune issue with a hyper thyroid issue 80 of the time it's going to also be an autoimmune condition called graves disease okay so that's the first thing you need to know um most of these conditions are autoimmune conditions so they're really not thyroid as much as their immune issues and so let's just kind of go through this with a hypo okay not enough thyroid hormones and we're talking primarily about hashimoto's it occurs eight times more in women now with a hyper graves um you also see almost eight it's like 7.5 times more common women between the ages of 40 and 60. okay so that's the first clue another clue is that one of the triggers for a hypo hashimoto's is that a woman who gives birth in three to eight months postpartum past their their birth has higher incidence of hashimoto's so what does that tell us right there estrogen is involved and we already know that estrogen blocks the conversion from t4 to t3 now if we switch over to graves there's a seven times higher risk of developing this condition a year following your delivery again involving estrogen so estrogen apparently is a big trigger when you get a a total t4 and a total t3 measured on your blood test that is not the best test you should get a free t4 and a free t3 test you're going to have more accurate data now when we talk about tsh thyroid stimulating hormone okay which by the way that is not a thyroid hormone it's a pituitary hormone your pituitary makes a lot of different hormones and that's one of them it controls the thyroid from above from somewhere in your brain a lot of doctors will use the normal value of 0.4 to 5 as being normal but there's some more credible data that states that that normal value for thyroid stimulating hormone should be 0.45 to 2.5 okay not all the way up to 5. that would be a more of a normal range that i would focus on so if it's above that then there's a problem and also realize that the higher the tsh goes now the next point i want to bring up is the relationship between t4 and t3 t4 is a pre thyroid hormone and then t3 is the active thyroid hormone so it has to be converted and there's a huge problem with a lot of people with the conversion and so you need certain things to help you convert which we'll get into in a second but if you have a thyroid problem and you're on synthroid you're taking t4 realize you're taking the inactive version your body has to convert it and what you may not realize is that 20 percent of t3 is produced directly from your thyroid gland and the rest is the t4 so if you're given t4 only and not t3 you could be a bit shy on getting the full benefit of the thyroid hormones thus the reason why you still have these symptoms and the other reason why you may have still have symptoms and you're on synthroid is just simply because they're treating a secondary problem or you have a problem with the conversions so what would you do if you have a hype o hashimoto situation here's some ideas i would recommend taking selenium zinc both of these help the conversion from t4 to t3 they're also very powerful antioxidants and the inflammation that's generated from these autoimmune conditions block the conversion these cytokines block this conversion so this these two will help reduce that inflammation and help the convergence now vitamin d is just a given vitamin d helps autoimmune conditions in general and it's going to lower the inflammation seek help would be beneficial not just with the iodine but it also has selenium and zinc and a lot of the other trace minerals and then purify bile salts bile salts help convert t4 to t3 and so they will increase more thyroid hormone production and if you have a liver problem a fatty liver a gallbladder problem thickened bile you're going to be deficient in bile salts and that could be the reason why you're not converting thyroid hormones now let's shift over to graves vitamin d is essential i would recommend if you're going to take vitamin d for any autoimmune issue it should be minimally fifteen thousand IUs twenty thousand IUs up to forty thousand IUs or even more and the next thing i'm gonna recommend is vitamin b1 why because b1 can lower your estrogen dominance if you have a hyperthyroid condition one of the things that happens is you use a lot of b1 and so you're usually going to be very deficient and you're also going to be deficient vitamin d but you're going to be really deficient in b1 and if you're deficient in b1 you can have a lot of the symptoms that will mimic a lot of other conditions so you want to take bottom b1 in fact i would probably take it with the hypo as well but for hyper cases like graves you don't want to take purify bile salts because that's going to give you more thyroid hormones it's going to help you convert more you already have too much so you don't want to take that all right so that's all i wanted to communicate about the thyroid in this video thanks for watching before you go if you have a question about a product or you're new to keto and you want to know how to begin keto or you're on keto and you need a debug because it's not going as smooth i have a keto consultant standing by to help you this is just for the people in the us hopefully in the future we'll be able to answer everyone's call but i put the number down below so you can call and get some help you

I am thrilled to share my remarkable journey of overcoming thyroid issues, thanks to the expertise of Dr. Okouromi, a holistic herbal specialist I discovered on YouTube. After struggling with thyroid problems for five years, I found relief in his herbal medication and body cleanser. Remarkably, I experienced a complete cure within just three weeks, with no adverse side effects. I am grateful for the alternative herbal treatment that restored my health and well-being.đ„°đ„°đ„°đ„°đ„°đ„°đ„°
Thank you Dr. Eric for your content, especially the ones about thyroid issues. I have actually been diagnosed with hyperthyroidism and what causes this condition in me is a nodule that produces the same hormone as the thyroid gland. I have been researching this but apparently it is not as common as Graves' disease and so I can't find much information about it. Could you please consider to make a video on this topic?
Free T3 is 2.07 đą
When is it best to take the supplements?
I need help
My test Thyroid Stimulation Hormone at 5.05.
Free thyroxine (T4) is 1.0
How can I solve this ?
Donât forget Menopause can cause Hypothyroidism also.
Cut out caffeine completely folks, it destroys the thyroid, have two Brazil nutter day â€
Do not take bile salts with Graves Hyperthyroid
I have an underactive thyroid called hypothyroidism
6:00 Vit B1 is belangrijk, veel zit in varkensvlees. Bijv Karbonade
†Brilliant information.Thank you so much Doctor Berg đđđâ€
This thing chokes me when I raise up my arms to take off shirts or dresses plus I know it blocks my airway especially at night âŠ
Genius doctor â€
I was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism, but Iâm negative for Graves disease. My TSH is low, T3 is high, but my T4 is normal. I cannot find any literature that explains why some people have high T3 but normal T4. Does anyone know the reason?
Make sure you are very specific with your doctor about getting free T3 and free T4 tested.
My doctor did not give me a free T3 test even though I specifically asked for that. She gave me total T3 which apparently is not the same. I repeatedly asked for free T3 and thought thatâs what she wrote down. It wasnât.
Make sure you look at the paperwork before you have your doctor put in a blood test for you.
Or better yet, get off the mainstream health doctor system.
They seem to not help you thrive.
What bout subclinical thyroid problem,+if u feel symptoms too
What about someone who has TSH? What do yiu recommend?
Doctor Berg is like a Superhuman ….
Could see all the chemical reactions from above ….
Stay blessed ! â€
I was put on levothyroxine and never really saw much of a difference at all and how I felt. After listening to you say it is secondary to something else. They never mentioned anything about fatty liver or all of the other possibilities. Should I ask for testing of my gallbladder, etc., to make sure there is not something else going on
I was told by my endocrinologist that because as a child I received radiation it would affect the Pituitary over time. Because The thyroid is connected to the function of the pituitary gland would this be the reason for my Hashimotoâs ?
We don't have purify sea salt in Australia. Where can I get it, please
I thought i had hypothyroidism but in fact is the opposite
Dr. Berg you are the one and only to describes and help us to better understand these simple advice. You are great .
