You're feeling...

Frustrated!  You're battling with fatigue, brain fog and low mood.  Your doctor has run a thyroid test and told you everything is normal but you know it isn't!  You're offered anti-depressants but you aren't depressed!  You've lost your spark and wonder if it is all in your head?

​Disheartened! You've eventually been diagnosed and are relieved to have started medication to make you better.  A thyroid test reveals your thyroid function is now normal but you still feel rubbish!  There are no other solutions offered and you feel alone with your daily struggles. 

​At a loss!  Perhaps you have Hashimoto's or Graves' and your medication keeps being adjusted without further investigation.  Your ongoing symptoms are treated with 'sticking plasters' and you've been told there's nothing you can do about your autoimmune disease.

I have been there too!

So, what next?

Once diagnosed, thyroid problems sound simple...take a pill to get your thyroid hormone levels set right and ta dah! you will feel hunky-dory again.  Unfortunately, like you, I have learned that it's definitely not this straight forward.

Let's not get frustrated with our doctors though as thyroid physiology is complex!  Conventional medicine simply doesn't have the resources to fully investigate the individual patient and personalise treatment, so many thyroid sufferers end up reading umpteen books and joining endless forums to figure out what's going on and navigate how to take control of their health once and for all!

Well, now you can let me do the figuring out for you!  

I could write a whole book on thyroid physiology, but until then, think of the thyroid gland as the conductor of your body's orchestra!  It is responsible for regulating your metabolism (the speed at which every bodily process happens) and thyroid hormones are needed by EVERY SINGLE CELL in your body.  You cannot live without a thyroid.  I know right now you feel like you can't live with one either! but it's pretty important.

Because thyroid hormones are so important and need to be relied upon, the thyroid gland rarely creates its own problems.  Thyroid hormones interact with hundreds of other biochemicals and bodily processes. 
​Most of the time a host of other things will be contributing to a misbehaving thyroid.

What can contribute to thyroid problems

genetics

stress

immune system dysregulation

sex hormone imbalances

poor gut health

My 4 elements for optimal thyroid health
encompass a whole-body approach

RESTORE
Gut and liver health
​The gut and liver play super important roles for thyroid function, mainly as conversion sites for thyroid hormones.  The gut is also home to over 70% of your immune system, so it definitely needs closer attention if you have thyroid antibodies.

NURTURE
You and your environment
Your thyroid is a sensitive soul and can be easily upset by environmental factors.  Creating a routine for your body, a peaceful mind and clearing out hidden toxins from around the home, generates harmony and nurtures your thyroid.

NOURISH
Nutrients for your thyroid
​Thyroid hormones are made from tyrosine and iodine and need an extensive entourage to support their journey from your thyroid gland to every single cell in your body!  The main helpers are vitamins A, all the Bs, C, D and E, iron, selenium and zinc.   

REBALANCE
Stress and sex hormones
Stress can contribute to the making of duff thyroid hormones that are inactive!  Sex hormones (estrogen, progesterone and testosterone) have complex relationships with thyroid hormone, so it's time to get all your hormonal ducks in a row!
