When a person rapidly loses most thyroid gland function, some obvious and immediate symptoms develop like
- Severe fatigue and frequent exhaustion
- Depression and gloominess
- Frequent constipation
- Menstrual irregularities- especially heavy bleeding with periods
- Dry, coarse skin that is pale and itchy. Puffiness of the face, especially in post- menopausal women
- Dry, coarse, thinning hair (also losing the outer third of your eyebrows)
- Intolerance to cold
If you have these symptoms you may have full-blown hypothyroidism. I had all these symptoms, plus more.
I'd like to share with you the most important formula I take for hypothyroidism, which contains a mixture of important minerals, herbs, and other supplements that is nourishing and healing for your thyroid. It's made by a company called Bluebonnet Nutrition. I have no financial ties to this company. I am simply recommending it because it is one of the keys to my healing and continued thyroid health.
It's Bluebonnet Thyroid Boost, and I usually purchase it online from: https://www.vitacost.com/bluebonnet-nutrition-targeted-choice-thyroid-boost
Amazon does not sell it even though they sell other Bluebonnet products. Amazon also stopped selling NAC because of pressure from government organizations. Perhaps the reasons for both are similar.
The dosage on the bottle is to take 2 capsules per day.
I think this is low for someone like me whose hypothyroidism is severe. I take triple this dose. Once in the morning, once at mid-day, and once in the evening.
I will share why I came to take this dosage amount later. The way I learned to practice herbalism is to self-dose, starting with a small dose. However because I was in a very grave condition and feared I could die, I did the opposite. I wanted to start with the maximum recommended dose I could find of each of the ingredients, which happened to be just about triple the serving size.
I have tried to reduce my dosage, but I experienced the severe "hypothyroidism attacks" again when I did. They were so severe I was bedridden and non-functioning for almost a week.
Sometimes, if I accidentally miss a dose in the middle of the day, I can feel myself getting fatigued or unable to regulate temperature normally again. The supplement feeds my body exactly what I need, exactly what I lacked.
Of course, that wasn't the only key to my healing, but I call it my secret weapon because it's one of the easiest powerful ones to use when battling hypothyroidism, so I wanted to share that with you right away in case you would like to do your own experimenting.
In future lessons I will share more about the importance of each key ingredient in the formula, and other weapons I have in my arsenal that I use to battle hypthyroidism.
I call it a battle because that's what this is. And in a battle, you have to use various tactics. In close combat, there are different weapons than when at a distance, and when you lose your weapons, you have to just fight with your bare hands. It's also not just about strength, but there is also a need for fearlessness and relentless pursuit of victory, especially if your life is truly in danger. Sometimes you can run away, and sometimes you are in a battle for life. This is the case with many autoimmune disorders, inherited, genetic issues, and life-threatening diseases such as cancer.
Victory will not come merely because of one weapon in your hand. Victory will come through you. You must understand that your doctor, nurse, parent, spouse, etc. can not fight your battle for you. Though they can help and support you, true healing comes from within. It comes from the wondrous immune system that the Creator gave you, and learning how it works, and how to nourish it and use it to heal yourself, working with it instead of working against it by damaging it with a toxic lifestyle or toxic pharmaceutical drugs.
