Cholesterol and Lipid Issues in Hashimoto's and Hypothyroidism


Listen Later

In this week's episode, we're diving into the intricate relationship between cholesterol, lipid metabolism, and thyroid function, especially in the context of Hashimoto's thyroiditis and hypothyroidism. Many people are unaware of the significant impact that inadequate thyroid hormones can have on cardiovascular health. Understanding this connection is crucial for effective management.


We'll explore how hypothyroidism can lead to elevated cholesterol and triglyceride levels due to impaired liver function and increased LDL production. You'll learn how low thyroid hormone levels can cause the formation of smaller, denser LDL particles, which are more prone to oxidation and contribute to atherosclerosis.


Additionally, we'll cover the lesser-known effects of hypothyroidism on homocysteine levels, blood pressure, and fluid balance, emphasizing the importance of managing thyroid function for overall cardiovascular health. Tune in for a comprehensive guide to navigating the cholesterol and lipid challenges associated with Hashimoto's and hypothyroidism.
