If you’ve suffered from hair loss (even if you don’t have a history of balding), this is a must-read.
Stomach acid is important. Really important. Our digestive system isn’t meant to be a watery pool, it’s meant to be highly acidic so that we can thoroughly break down food and absorb nutrients.
If you’ve found yourself anxious about your weight, consider taking a break from your scale. Focus on behaviors and lifestyle changes, not fickle numbers.
It’s high time for a thyroid cookbook update. First, a short story, then, a short list of where Lisa and I are with our process.
It’s ‘bout time that we gave you a juicy update on our Fire Your Thyroid Cookbook (our working title). While Lisa and I have been hard at work on our labor of love, we feel that things have recently coalesced to a point that we’re able to share a worthy summary of our progress.
When people learn that I’ve lost weight, they always ask how I did it. The fact is, I don’t exactly know.
Given that most of the time, thyroid treatment is woefully inadequate and somewhat controversial, I was prepared for the letters and comments that my Experience Life magazine article, Repair Your Thyroid, would receive. I knew that some from the conventional medical community would squawk. And sure enough, I got slammed by some who seem entrenched in the status quo.
Many women today have estrogen dominance – a condition where estrogen is high in relation to progesterone. It doesn’t necessarily mean that estrogen is elevated (although most of the time it is) – it means that there is not enough progesterone production to oppose estrogen and keep it in check. As if hypothyroidism wasn’t enough of an epidemic, estrogen dominance is epidemic as well and can have some serious implications for thyroid function. Kind of a double whammy.
I’m co-writing a Thyroid Health cookbook! I’m so excited I can hardly stand it. This idea was hatched at about 8:30 the night before one of my Fire Your Thyroid classes, as I was emailing with my very close friend and class participant, Lisa Markley.
I recently wrapped up Version 2.0 of my Fire Your Thyroid teleclass series. What an amazingly rewarding experience – again. I’m amazed at how many people enrolled and I feel so honored to be able to share what I know with so many. I had people from seven countries participating and the feedback has been to touching.
