Thyroid Function: The thyroid is not broken but may need support beyond just consuming Brazil nuts and seaweed.
Hypothyroidism: It is a symptom that creates other symptoms, highlighting the need to address underlying causes of thyroid dysfunction.

Steps to Support Your Thyroid:

Comprehensive Thyroid Panel:
- Beyond TSH, a full thyroid panel is essential to understand the entire thyroid hormone journey.
- The journey includes signaling, production, conversion, transport, absorption, and utilization of thyroid hormones. (Psst… here is a FREE Masterclass on The Thyroid Hormone Journey ™️)
Assessing and Optimizing Thyroid Helpers:
- Nutrients like vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and fatty acids are crucial for each step in the thyroid hormone process.
- Methods like hair tissue mineral analysis provide insights into mineral status and cellular health.
Addressing Drains on the System:
- Factors like stress, inflammation, blood sugar dysregulation, and gut dysfunction can deplete nutrients and impact thyroid function.
- Implementing the “BRAIN Method” focuses on blood sugar balance, regulating inflammation, adrenal health, intestinal support, and nutrient repletion.
