Fix your thyroid with more muscle mass

[@mangographics225]

So interesting - after my husband passed I began to spend more time doing sedentary things like reading, TV crocheting. This is when my Thyroid became very low. Thanks for this!

I’m so thankful for doctors like you!

[@jo-sweets-c.2714]

Thank you oh, so much for your informative/educational videos. I downloaded your suggestions for blood tests, and other information to take to my doctor, it was very helpful! My doctor listened! she ran the tests that determined that the Lavoxithyone alone was not enough for me and added Liothyronine, (T3). After struggling with weight gain, hair loss, brain fog, lethargy, muscle weakness.....etc for several years, I have now gotten my health back. I have lost 25 lbs. so far in the first three months; my hair is healthy and growing again, my mood, sleep and focus are back. All this at age 68, and I'm also applying your dietary suggestions that are helping. 👍🏼

Hello Dr. Childs, please advise me. I had Graves/ Hyperthyroidism for 3 years and on Methimazole for 2 years and now on remission to Subclinical Hyperthyroidism. Normal T4 and T3 but TSH is 0.38. I stopped taking Methimazole and feel fine, no Hyper symptoms or anything. Could you tell me if I should continue treating the Sub Clinical Hyperthyroidism or do I not need to? I do avoid iodine and eating healthy.

[@nagrabagra4924]

I got sick of how eating carbs made me feel, and just started eating Beef Bacon Butter and Eggs. My thyroid function improved drastically within 2 months. Carbohydrates are not a necessity....animal meat and fat is. I consume a lot of meat/eggs, butter and heavy cream every day and my muscle mass has increased in ways that I've never been able to attain eating a heavy carb diet. I work out with resistance bands maybe twice a week, and the muscle just keeps on building. Being on this all animal products diet has also showed me that I have an intolerance of the chemicals inside of plants. Plants are toxic. ALL plants defend themselves from anything that would harm their ability to reproduce. They are loaded with chemicals to make you sick. Some people may be able to clear these toxins out of their system without much issue. But for me and many others, we have no tolerance for those chemicals and we feel like we are being poisoned. If you are not sure if you're being affected by carbohydrates in a negative way, go on the BBB&E diet for about 90 days, then add one vegetable at a time to your diet for one day and see if you have brain fog, nerve pain, joint pain, fatigue or any kind of inflammation in you body that wasn't therefore. If you do, then don't eat it again....unless you like pain lol!

[@fidrewe99]

I don't understand how eating this much protein is supposed to work with a plant-based diet. For example, I would have to eat 1.5 kg of kidney beans every day to get 130 g of proteins. A typical meal with legumes contains just 1/6th of that. I'm drinking a 700 ml protein shake with hemp protein almost every day. The amount is 25 g, which together with the other ingredients corresponds to 19.5 g of pure protein per day. If I put in more, it ceases being enjoyable and gets difficult to drink. This is one of my 4 meals I manage to have per day. However, I would have to drink 6-7 of these shakes or 4.7 liters to get 130 g per day. Even if I managed to eat that much protein (which is said to be satiating), how on earth could I accomodate all the fruits and vegetables that we are supposed to eat? With the additional help of self-made protein bars containing nuts and seeds, I think I'm getting about 85 g of protein on most days (including occasional eggs or sheep cheese), but getting beyond that seems to be nearly impossible.

Dr Child's, thank-you for trying to help thyroid patients, so appreciate your info. I have hypo although my problem has been keeping weight on along with hair loss! I was on compound T-3,t-4 50 mcg 2 a day, when because of these two symptoms my doctor cut it in half thinking I went into hyper. I am a muscular person in the past and although my age of 64 is a consideration, I know what muscle mass I've lost is not normal. I work out about 5 times a week pretty moderately. I now switched my thyroid to a natural desiccated 75 mcg twice a day. I do what you recommended about taking my first dose at night before sleep and second dose in the morning? All the supplements and diet you recommend I follow, lab is good on iron, D and others . Any suggestions on why my hair won't stop falling out? Sleep and stress are not a problem. Just trying to give you a better picture! It's frustrating as I feel I'm doing all the right things, my last blood test showed low t4? I've been eating shrimp and the other things to raise t4 naturally! Thks

I cannot fathom getting that much protein! 130 grams? I currently get half that. I had heard about a year ago that we have been oversold on protein. Roughly one serving of either powder or meat is 20g. So how do i get 6 servings in a day without gaining weight and going broke? How about when I’m OMAD, which I heard is good for thyroid? getting 120g of protein in one meal is not going to happen.

[@eugeniabarsukova]

You need one gram per kilogram, not per pound, so you can divide that 130 in two. Bodybuilders eat up to two grams per kilogram of mass, but that's the upper limit.

*Doc, those salt lamps are toxic. You're welcome*

[@VVineTU]

Himalayan salt lamp PLEASE THROW OUT YOUR SALT LAMPS NOW Salt Lamps, Himalayan Salt & Sea Salt Are Pure Poison A ridiculous charade within our community of natural health and living has been playing out for a few years. Too many people have been buying into the outright lies. The facts are hidden right in front of their eyes in hopes that nobody pays attention to them, or they simply haven't done their due diligence and are just believing what others are telling them. Salt lamps and Himalayan salt are highly toxic. They contain extreme levels of mercury, lead, aluminum, and cadmium, just to name a few. If you heat that up in a salt lamp, you are inhaling the off-gassing of these toxic metals but also dispensing those metals into every porous surface in your home environment. When it comes to sea salt, they will only disclose the extreme levels of aluminum and won't disclose mercury, which is highly problematic since there are 2 different seas on this planet right now and have mercury cloud warning systems. Because the amount of mercury in our ocean and even our fresh waters has increased by 300% since 1990. 84% of all fish in this world contain toxic levels of mercury in a single serving. And 82% of the world's population are walking around with toxic mercury levels. This is according to the Biodiversity Research Institute of Maine (BRI), the world's foremost expert on environmental mercury. Reference: ipen.org/sites/default/files/documents/BRI-IPEN-report-update-102214%20for%20web_0.pdf And before all the detractors, cynics, and armchair warriors start attempting to defend their supplemental salt or salt lamps, I will tell you right now that scientists, naturopathic doctors, and the likes have already tried to call me out on this and had their own individual spectral analysis done of salt lamps and Himalayan salt. Every one of them found that they were highly toxic. If you're looking to argue with me on this, you'll lose because I'm about to bury you in indisputable evidence that comes directly from the suppliers and manufacturers of these products. The first thing you need to understand is what the safe levels for these toxic metals in our drinking water are. And further understanding that 80% of it will be cleared through digestive processes, as opposed to off-gassing of Himalayan salt lamps, where you get 100% of it. But for that, you need to look to Health Canada and what is considered the safe limits of all the heavy metals and chemicals in drinking water. www.canada.ca/en/health-canada/services/environmental-workplace-health/reports-publications/water-quality/guidelines-canadian-drinking-water-quality-summary-table.html Now, do you want to claim that Himalayan salt, which is what the Himalayan salt lamps are made of, is safe? From third-party spectral analysis, let's look at what the manufacturers of Himalayan salt identify right on their own websites. Let's first look at the manufacturer and distributor known as The Meadow, and you will find a copy of their spectral analysis of Himalayan salt listed here: Reference: themeadow.com/pages/minerals-in-himalayan-pink-salt-spectral-analysis This is not me making it up. This is identified by the distributor and manufacturer themselves. So don't attack me on this one, but let me break it down for you. Mercury density: 0.3 ppm Safe levels of mercury in drinking water: 0.001 ppm That is 300 times greater than that which is considered safe Aluminum density: 0.661 ppm Safe levels of Aluminum in drinking water: 0.005 ppm That is 132 times greater than that which is considered safe Cadmium density: 0.3 ppm Safe levels of Cadmium in drinking water: 0.01 ppm That is 30 times greater than that which is considered safe Lead density: 0.1 ppm Safe levels of Lead in drinking water: 0.005 ppm That is 20 times greater than that which is considered safe. . Here is a couple of other distributors' and manufacturers' spectral analyses that have been removed from being online since I first reported this, and others began confirming the toxicity of Himalayan salt products, but thanks to the web archive, we can still see them: web.archive.org/web/20161224215310/www.earthsalt.net/mineral-analysis/ web.archive.org/web/20181219061412/himalayasalt.co.za/lab-report/ This information is not something being interpreted by me. It comes directly from the manufacturers and the distributors of these products. Now let's take a look at sea salt. And what you will find is they will not even disclose mercury levels. But that's fine. There are other highly toxic metals in sea salt. Let's use cure zone's Celtic Gray Sea Salt as an example for aluminum, and this is going to rock your world. Because they try to hide it in percentages, but it's very easy to convert the percentage to 2 ppm. www.curezone.org/foods/salt/Celtic_Sea_Salt_Analysis.asp Are you ready for this? Because you may want to sit down! Aluminum density: 95 ppm Safe levels of aluminum in drinking water: 0.005 ppm That is 19,000 times greater than that which is considered safe As you will see above, they will not show cadmium, lead, or mercury. It's only a partial spectral analysis, but if 19,000 times greater than the safe limits of aluminum isn't enough for you, then I don't know what to tell you. Because nobody else wants to disclose a real mineral analysis of sea salt, let's look at Redmond's ancient sea salt, an animal product. Still, unless they are refining it heavily, this is probably what's really in Redmonds salt. www.norganics.com/label/Redmond10Analysis.pdf Once again, even in animal product salt, they don't want to disclose the mercury levels in salt that comes in the products that they mine in the most toxic state in the USA. Aluminum density: 215 ppm Safe levels of Aluminum in drinking water: 0.005 ppm That is 43,000 times greater than that which is considered safe Cadmium density: 0.27 ppm Safe levels of Cadmium in drinking water: 0.01 ppm That is 27 times greater than that which is considered safe Lead density: 0.6 ppm Safe levels of Lead in drinking water: 0.005 ppm That is 120 times greater than that which is considered safe. Now, let's talk about iodized table salt which is sodium chloride with a natural iodine bond. We are told in our community to oppose it because of the anti-caking agent and ammonium bleaching. But ammonia is a natural element that occurs in the human body and is flashed off long before the products ever hit the market. It and the anti-caking agents are acceptable for use in all organic foods. I personally do not own saltshaker of any type and haven’t for more than 20 years. I do not use salt in my food. I get all the sodium I need from real meat, raw vegetables, and fruits. Very few of us need supplemental salt. The reason it exists in our foods is mainly because it's addictive. It's every bit as addictive as sugar, and the food industry knows it. But if anybody tells you that Himalayan salt or sea salt is much healthier for you than regular table salt, they are either lying to you or buying into the lie.
