The thyroid gland plays a significant role in overall health. The butterfly-shaped gland at the front of the neck controls heart rate and metabolism and regulates body temperature. Autoimmune conditions that affect the thyroid can damage the gland and disrupt its hormone-producing ability. As a result, too much or too little hormone released by the thyroid can cause serious health complications.


Understanding Hyperthyroidism


Hyperthyroidism affects only about 1 percent of people in the United States. However, the rare condition can severely impact the lives of those who experience it. Hyperthyroidism is when the thyroid produces more hormones than the body needs. The body can experience a wide array of symptoms when this occurs.


Hyperthyroidism is not necessarily an autoimmune disorder. However, it frequently begins because of one. Autoimmune diseases occur when the immune system overreacts to an infection or other stimuli and begins misidentifying healthy cells as foreign intruders it must attack. The actions cause damage to the body part it attacks.

Choosing Natural Remedies for Hyperthyroidism


Correcting the actions of the immune system requires people to change their lifestyles. The focus of this change should be on diet modification. Healthy diets reduce system-wide inflammation and support the immune system to keep it under control. The addition of targeted supplements can aid in these purposes. In addition, reliable hyperthyroidism remedies offer a natural and safe alternative to more risky medical options.


Dr. Robert Lichtenstein developed a method for this purpose and used it twice to defeat his stage 4 cancer. The doctor understands how nutrition plays a role in keeping the body healthy and the immune system working. He is a Board-Certified Nutritional Specialist, a Chiropractor, and proof of the effectiveness of his plan. He wants to share these methods, so everyone can improve their health and control their lives and wellness plans.

Patient Testimonal for Natural Remedies for Hyperthyroidism by Board-Certified Nutritional Specialist via Telehealth and from Forest Hills NY 11375

Patient Testimonial

After two years of medication to control my hyperthyroidism, the doctor stopped the treatment because my thyroid production stabilized. I only discovered it was a temporary cure when the symptoms restarted a year later. I was tired of the routine and wanted real answers. I found the natural remedies I needed with Dr. Lichtenstein, and I could not be happier with the results.

Symptoms of Hyperthyroidism

Hyperthyroidism often begins with mild symptoms. More health problems will arise over time. The severity of each problem will also increase. People affected by the ailment may feel some or all the symptoms listed.

  • Fatigue
  • Muscle weakness
  • Sleep disorders
  • Nervousness
  • Irritability
  • Heat intolerance
  • Hand tremors
  • Rapid heartbeat
  • Irregular heartbeat
  • Diarrhea or other frequent bowel movements
  • Unexplained weight loss
  • Mood swings
  • Goiter (swelling of the thyroid)
  • Loss of appetite (people over 60)
  • Sudden dislike of socializing (people over 60)

Causes of Hyperthyroidism

The most common cause of hyperthyroidism is the autoimmune condition Graves' Disease. The condition causes the immune system to attack the thyroid and throw off its functioning process. Additional causes can include non-cancerous nodules on the thyroid, thyroid inflammation, and too much iodine in the system. Iodine encourages the thyroid to produce hormones. People may have excessive amounts of iodine in the body if they consume seaweed or supplements containing seaweed. Other risk factors for hyperthyroidism include:


  • Being female
  • Being over age 60
  • Pregnancy or childbirth in the previous six months
  • Having a family member with thyroid disease
  • Experiencing pernicious anemia
  • Prior goiter or thyroid surgery
  • Have an autoimmune disease

Potential Risks of Leaving Hyperthyroidism Untreated

Generally, all treatments used by traditional medical doctors reduce or stop the symptoms but rarely address the cause. Traditional medical solutions for hyperthyroidism often include prescription drugs that slow hormone production in the thyroid. The use of the medication lasts for one or two years until the thyroid function stabilizes. However, this method provides only temporary correction, so more treatment eventually becomes necessary.


Other thyroid medications can cause anxiety, body tremors, and a rapid heartbeat. In addition, radioiodine therapy increases the risk of cancer, according to professional cancer studies. As a result, doctors may recommend surgery if medications do not control the problem.


Having only mild symptoms or experiencing a fear of the medication's side effects can cause people to avoid hyperthyroidism treatments. The thyroid needs assistance to recover and function normally. The gland will not correct itself. All symptoms will worsen over time, and more severe complications can arise. People who do not seek treatment for hyperthyroidism can experience:

 

  • Irregular heartbeat
  • Blood clots
  • Stroke
  • Heart failure
  • Eye complications
  • Osteoporosis
  • Fertility issues
  • Pregnancy complications that can affect the fetus or the mother
  • Miscarriage
