You are showing all signs of Hypothyroidism and yet your lab work and especially your thyroid numbers are all normal. Is that even possible?

It is indeed very possible and it's more prevalent than we think says Dr. Eric Balcavage. He chalks it all up to a condition called Cellular Hypothyroidism. Cellular Hypothyroidism occurs when our cells fail to act on and absorb the normal levels of Thyroid Hormones produced by the body. 

The process of making the Thyroid gland is a complex one with so many steps and interfaces between the trigger from the hypothalamus and the final synthesis of T3 hormones by our cells.  The present conventional approach to thyroid is a glandular one where all thyroid related symptoms and disorders are attributed to the malfunctioning of the thyroid gland with little or no regard for the processes that happen at the cellular level.  

Further the treatment for thyroid disorders is a fragmented one with so much emphasis on replacement thyroid hormones, supplements, rigid diets etc that what is lost in translation is the redressal of the root causes of the symptoms that we are experiencing. 

How can we better handle the diagnosis and treatment of thyroid conditions? That's the central theme of Dr. Balcavage's book - The Thyroid Debacle. Watch this video to learn more.
