About this book

Whats Really Going on in Hashimotos? Hashimotos is more than just hypothyroidism. Most patients with Hashimotos will present with acid reflux nutrient deficiencies anemia intestinal permeability food sensitivities gum disorders and hypoglycemia in addition to the typical hypothyroid symptoms such as weight gain cold intolerance hair loss fatigue and constipation. The body becomes stuck in a vicious cycle of immune system overload adrenal insufficiency gut dysbiosis impaired digestion inflammation and thyroid hormone release abnormalities. This cycle is self-sustaining and will continue causing more and more symptoms until an external factor intervenes and breaks the cycle apart. The lifestyle interventions discussed in this book aim to dismantle the vicious cycle piece by piece. We start with the simplest modifications by removing triggers and follow with repairing the other broken systems to restore equilibrium allowing the body to rebuild itself.
