HYPOTHYROIDISM: Don’t Ignore These 7 Early Warning Signs

[@fidelcatsro6948]

7 early warning signs of hypothyroidism: 1. Loss of the outer part of the eyebrows 2. Thinning, dry hair 3. Decreased cold tolerance 4. Slow metabolism 5. Weight gain all over 6. Feeling tired 7. Depression 8. Other than that youre perfectly fine👌 What to do for hypothyroidism: 1. Determine the true cause 2. Take trace minerals (selenium, zinc, and iodine) 3. Don’t consume gluten 4. Take vitamin D (40,000 IU) and *Thyrotrophin PMG* (1 before bed over three months) Thank you Dr Berg!! 🐱👍🏿

[@Marie.b]

As a person who has hypothyroidism, I can attest to losing eyebrows not being an early sign. Cold intolerence, weight changes, hair changes ,hoarseness , low energy , foggy brain all came before , temperature drops like waves through your body, skin changes (cholesterol deposits under skin) weak ankles/ feet , anxiety, not as in worrying about stuff but as in internal tremours, heart palpatations, shortness of breath( onset asthma) AND for women, menstruel changes, i nearly bled out for instances before i was diagnosed and THEN i lost the outer part of my once thick , joined in the middle eyebrows! So if anyone wants to know about symptoms, ask me. I've been through the mill while the doctor just thought I was neurotic and overweight!

Cut out gluten, sugar, and dairy. It was horrible at first, felt like I was dying from the detoxing, but it was definitely worth it.

Big Pharma trains and creates the curriculum for today's doctors. They teach only to know how to manage the Disease Process and not your Health! They practice what I call 'Cookbook medicine' following the prescription recipes to manage only disease symptoms while not trying to addresses the root cause or even a cure. A deep understanding how your health decline might have come about is not required by today's doctors. The industry is in decline and Dr. Berg is the answer.

No sympathy or interest from any doctor in uk. Even had to educate my GP re certain aspects of thyroid issues as her knowledge is very basic. Some days I find it hard to accept I have to live my life this way. They need to understand just how significantly life changing the effects of hypothyroidism has on people and due to cheap, Ineffective treatment, what effect is has on patients’ quality of life.

Watching your videos I’ve lost 25 pounds in 5 weeks. I’ve played sports my whole life and was military for 6 years. I hurt my back, gained weight (from 225 to 290)and it took 13 months to get back to some type of normalcy. In that time I was still eating 6 times a day and I started getting depressed/suicidal. Once I was able to hit the gym again I hit it as hard as I can but couldn’t drop weight (I gained more. Got up to 340). It gave me body dysmorphia. I had no gut but love handles and body was just big(defensive end offensive linemen) and not what I was accustomed to. My doctor said I had no issues but needed to lose weight so I saw a dietitian. They put me inside this egg shaped machine that give a body breakdown. Long story short I followed what they said to the letter but nothing worked. Watching your videos helped me immediately, I started a 4/20 intermittent fast along with my workouts and a protein rich keto friendly diet. I had to understand my body is different and seeing a dietitian I did listen for my own good but they did give me more of a cookie cutter experience for my body. You can’t say someone is built like a linebacker(with a high energy motor) and then give them a plan for a regular person who doesn’t work like you do. I thank you and my wife thanks you. I’m finally starting to look how I workout.

[@CTX700girl]

Congratulations on your weight loss. I gained about 40 pounds during menopause and I was trying everything to lose weight. I was experiencing joint pain everywhere, especially my back. Went to the doctor and all she would say it’s a part of getting older and prescribe me mild pain pills. Got so bad I’d be up all night online trying to find out what could be causing it. That’s when I found Dr Berg, Dr. Ken Berry and Dr. Sten Ekberg, and others who I start listening to. I stared KETO and within a few days all my pain was gone and the weight just came off and I’ve kept it off for 4 years now. And when cheated around The holidays, I’ve eaten sugar, or too many carbs pain would return with a vengeance. Keep on going.

After giving birth I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism. I had all the symptoms Dr. Berg mentioned plus swelling all around and pressure around my eyes. I was put on synthroid I took it for a year almost. In that year of taking the medication it made me feel worse. I was always sleepy tired I would sleep throughout the day and I would still wake up tired. I went to Tulum last year and I forgot my medication. The week we were out there without me taking my medication felt amazing I wasn’t tired I was active I felt great so I stopped taking the medication. I went to an all natural doctor in Los Angeles, CA. She told me straight up it wasn’t my thyroid acting up she said I had a fatty liver (usually happens when your gallbladder has been removed). She had me do a colon cleanse and then detoxed my liver. I was taking choline, catsclaw, livtron and zypan. Along with that I was drinking lots of water and eating healthy. Within a month I was glowing and I had a lot of energy I felt like a brand new person. Today I’m struggling a little again but with Dr. Bergs help I will get back to it slowly but surely.

I was diagnosed at 9 years old with Hypothyroidism. I'm 44 now and was finally diagnosed with 5 different food allergies: Wheat, Soy, Corn, Peanuts, and Sesame Seeds. My life thus far has been ruined because of it. Most of my life not one Dr. would take my complaints of nausea and vomiting seriously!! It took me four years after doing the research to even get a Dr. to finally give me a food allergy blood test! I'm so angry. Knowing this early in life would have changed my future completely. I was a good kid and an A & B student but as I got older the nausea became debilitating. This greatly affected my social and work life, not to mention the depression that stemmed from it. Avoiding these foods is even more socially isolating which doesn't help my depression and I am not sure what to eat now that can help me heal. Coming from a toxic family, I was often accused of making it up and ignored when I said I don't feel well. Unfortunately, they believed the incompetent doctors over me. The relationship between my parents and I is permanently damaged because of this. 😐 I hope I can find some form of happiness this late in life. I pray my body can heal enough to have my own family. I promise I will treat them better then I was treated. Much prayers needed. 💝

I was suffering from systemic joint pain, sciatica for many months. I couldn't sleep or barely walk. I went to 6 different specialists. They did everything from removing my wisdom teeth to drugging me with daily Aleve, sulsafazine, penicillin, oxycodone etc. The Rheumatologist talked about putting me on a biologic after diagnosing me with an autoimmune disorder, even though I tested negative for all the tests, xray and then an MRI. The lady said go see your obgyn after reviewing my MRI results, "you have some cysts on your ovary, it looks like PCOS". I never heard of it. I did go to the obgyn, they did nothing as usual, cysts ruptured and put me in the hospital 2 months later. During all this time between doctors, I was still in severe pain throughout my body. I read about Keto and started watching Dr. Berg's videos. Since none of the doctors helped me and wanted to give me the hard drugs, I never filled the increased dose my Rheumatologist gave me, she said the increase was because I was going to get worse. I went home tossed what I had left, since I had started keto and felt better. Before my 90 days were up, I had zero pain. It'll be 3 yrs in September and I didn't get worse like she said. There're a lot of quacks/frauds out there. I lost a lot of trust since, seems many are just guessing 😕 anyhow, by the end of the 90 days, I also got back down to 121, a weight I hadn't seen in over 10 yrs with no help from the medical community in all that time. Turns out I probably had PCOS for over 15 yrs and seen several obgyn doctors every single year and nothing. Smh

I think perhaps the real question here is why are so many people suffering from hypothyroidism compared to say 60 + years ago. It’s not just the rise in fast food etc., but the food we consume from our grocery stores. I think dieting helps, but it’s only a small part of the equation. The US needs major changes/better regulation on what is allowed in our foods. It’s out of control as food companies only care about making higher profits. Also when healthy foods cost more than high carb foods…there’s a problem.

From my very first diagnosis, I begged to see an endocrinologist. The answer was always "there's a waiting time so we just won't refer you" I've had whacked thyroid for better part of 2 decades. I eventually had an autoimmune issue deserving of leukemia chemo. I haven't taken synthroid since. My low metabolism is linked to my hormones as I am going through early menopause.

Why this video doesnt surprise me? I went to an endocrinologist, and mentioned that my general doctor is increasing my dosage of levothyroxin every few months (I started from 75 over a year ago and now Im on 150 mg) and I found that worrying, so I wanted an specialist’s opinion, specialist said that was fine, I also mentioned that the time period where I completely stopped eating gluten based foods I noticed an improvement on my overall wellbeing, so I thought it might be related to some sort of gluten intolerance (never made the connection with the hypothyroidism), well, made a bloodtest, now I know I dont have gluten intolerance 😂.

Thanks for this video Dr Berg. I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism the year before last but given the symptoms I think I have had it for a lot longer than my GP says. I had been having blood tests roughly on an annual basis but the surgery receptionists - not the GPs at this point - kept telling me that all my results were OK and I didn't need to see a doctor. It actually took one of their practice nurses saying to me "did anyone tell you that you needed more blood tests after your last lot?" and me saying "well no, the receptionist told me everything was normal" for me to find out that everything wasn't actually "normal" and they wanted to investigate things further. I'm now being tested every three months and am prescribed levothyroxine at 100 microgrammes a day. But I haven't really been feeling any better. I feel the cold more, my OA plays up like crazy, my metabolism seems to have slowed right down and my joints are so painful (I'm taking 4 different types of tablets for the arthritic pain) and I'd put a lot of this down to menopausal issues. Also, the hospital won't test for Hashimoto's even though I and my GP have requested it because apparently "they like to try everything else first" which seems totally counter-productive to me!

There is speculation that taking LEVOTHYROXINE may cause SIBO (based on an article that came out a year or two ago that showed a strong connection). We've known for years that being hypothyroid (untreated) can cause SIBO, so this article felt like a "you've gotta be kidding me"/"damned if you do, damned if you don't" moment 😬 I made a whole video about this- basically, it seems the real connection was the autoimmunity itself (or rather, the duration of autoimmunity), rather than the medication. So if you're reading this and you've been frustrated and confused about how to treat your thyroid and your SIBO, please know that it is ok to take replacement meds if you need them.

This is exactly my problem. I have been diagnosed with hypothyroidism about 4/5 years ago (as well as a genetic mutation that doesn't allow me to absorb vitamin B12 which I always lack and a slight insuline resistance) and have been on medication ever since. I am treating my thyroid with hormones and it seems to work in the sense that all the levels are now ok but my symptoms are all still there. Apart from the loss of the eyebrows and the dry hair, everything else is there: always fatigued and depressed, thin hair, can't tolerate cold weather, difficulty in losing weight despite eating a somewhat balanced diet and so on. We were never able to identify the root cause of this hypothyroidism so my doctor just came to the conclusion that it must have been caused by some flu. But after seeing this video, I am definitely gonna suggest him to do more research, especially since my insuline resistance could be linked to it!

But when I ignored the numbers and just focused on ways to make me feel good (I do alot of emotional/energy healing), I would feel fantastic and those weird symptoms would go away. I realised my thyroid condition was caused by unresolved emotions (trauma/abuse) that I inherited from ancestors plus the ones from my childhood.

I've got hashimoto's/hypothyroidism: fatigue, weight gain, sluggishness, hair loss etc

[@teachwethepeople3943]

Wow! My chiro said to not use anti-bacterial soap as it affects my thyroid.

[@ProserpinePomegranate]

​@teachwethepeople, anti bac products contain triclosan which is an endocrine disruptor. This in turn causes thyroid issues.

I have just gotten a medial release blood test . This tests one’s blood for for foods and substances that checks your sensitivities to inflammation. Waiting on the results. So if I can see what foods are inflammatory for me, is so valuable. Thanks Doc!

What is the price of that test?

Is this the name of the test - medial release test? If not what is the proper test name?

I have elevated cortisol levels due to work and after my wife passed away it got alot worse. My doctor put me on t4 for now. He said it's temporary but for now it was needed

[@healthyketoexperiment7964]

Dr Berg’s videos on cortisol, on t4, ect, may help.

I'm so thankful, been going through thyroid madness for ten years, my endocrine sessions takes less than 10 min and off I go with my net prescription and no proper solution. This is brilliant info. And yes I do find that if I cut out all grain and dairy I feel better, dairy cause inflammation for me, but some people can have dairy but not certain oils...

This describes me to the T. I think I was born with hypothyroid. I was 11 lbs baby. Big all my life. I also had fine thin hair and when I started my menstrual cycle is when my hair started to fall. That probably was due to estrogen spike. By my mid teen my menstrual cycle becanw irregular. Missing months to having spotting couple times a year. Found out that i have PCOS. At the same time I didn't know I was becoming insulin resistant and later I became type 2 diabetic. Thank you Dr. Berg and he's videos. With he's videos I learned I had fatty liver and fatigue adrenal gland. I started doing IF and low carb eating. I still have all the issues but I'm 30 lbs lighter and still have 40 lbs to lose. Now I feel like I have a hope.

All my symptoms fully set in after caring for my grandmother who had dementia. We did that for nearly 7 years.

I just do cardio for 40 minutes per day at moderate to high intensity levels, fix most problems. Cardio activity varies by day (elliptical at level 20, treadmill at 5.5 mph to 7 mph, AMT machines rotate with arm muscles and leg muscles movement, Stairmill at 6-11 METs). Consume a little less calorie than the amount normal for a human adult, maybe consume 200-500 calories less. Ah yes, low to moderate carbs. Remember 285g carbs per day, eat a little less of it. You can take a break one day a week, Sunday and eat whatever you want. Go to a Buffett once a week. Works great!

A big "Thank you" for everything you've said în this video and not only. A surgery induced menopause at 42 years old could be related to a huge value of tireoperoxidase antibody? After measuring this value, 8 months ago, all I have done was intermitent festing, 2 meals/day, almost no carbohydrates, grains în general and high amounts of vit. D intake (between 10 and 30 000 IU/day for 3-4 months). Today the value is 7 times lower, from 142 to 21 IU/ml. TSH, T4, T3 are inside the limita.

Hi Dr. Berg I had Strep throat 2 months ago, finished antibiotics then developed a mass on my thyroid and vasculitus on my ankles. I have a 16mo old in addition to 2 more children. My family just had a big life changed moving to another state. I was on steroids for 8 days but vasculitus didn't resolve. I've been doing carnivore diet for 4 weeks, mass is gone, vasculitus has cleared. Im not over weight at all & only have 2 of these markers you spoke of. I ate a homemade arugula salad w/ chicken & homemade dressing and I totally flared again. I'm using adrenal support supplement, vitamin Dk, C, zinc, tumeric. I will try selenium & iodine next! Thank u for this video🙏

[@leanit5756]

Out of the blue I went from healthy to almost zero TSH (hyper-thyroid) on my annual physical blood tests. My Doc then had all the additional blood tests run as well as an ultrasound done. Turned out I had a growth on the Thyroid like 5-6mm. Well I had started changed from "normal" salt to "Pink Himalayan" salt from Costco 1-2 years prior. I tried it and just liked how it tasted. Anyhow, I immediately went back to Morton's Iodized salt and within a few months everything went back to normal. My Dad used to always say when handing around the salt "You don't want a goiter do you?" And we would chuckle. I thought he was just being funny.
