Thyroid medication side effects so tell me if this sounds like you you were dealing with a fatigue an exhaustion a low energy low brain function focus concentration feeling cold can’t lose weight medications and forever after that you were never right you were fatigued even more your had heart palpitations you didn’t
Like the way you felt with it and ever since then maybe you’ve had bloating or maybe you’ve had just health challenges if that sounds like you then this video is for you i’m gonna be talking about thyroid medication side effects now first and foremost let’s get out of the way who i am my name is dr joel rosen
I am a functional medicine practitioner i am not trained as an md i am not an endocrinologist so that say oh he’s not even a real doctor then you don’t need to watch this video you that is maybe a little more open-minded and you want to hear what i have to say then your vid you’re going to get a lot out of this
Video i am trained as a licensed chiropractic physician i have gone back to functional medicine university and i have over 300 hours in nutrition that most endocrinologists don’t have one hour of nutrition and not to say that endocrinologists don’t have a great role to play they do they are the leading
Experts in in the way that your endocrine system works which is basically the different glands that stressors regulate your metabolism regulate your stress response regulate your fluid balance regulate your growth regulate your sex hormones regulate how your body deals with stress however what i find happens a lot of
The time is that they don’t get to the root cause of the problem and they reductionistically feel that if they just replace the part and give you some of the nutrient the medication that you’re missing that that will i really wish it did but it doesn’t work that way and hence why there’s hundreds of thousands
And millions of people that are taking thyroid medications getting their thyroid radiated getting their thyroid removed and are still dealing with a major health challenge and i want to talk to you about a client that i had today just this very day who said yeah three years ago i got put put on thyroid medication and i
Haven’t been the same scent since and that’s three years later i have swelling i have bloating i cannot tolerate stressors i’m not sleeping i can’t lose weight i i just don’t feel good and i would say to her put on thyroid medication is it safe to say that you had some health challenges like you just didn’t
Go to the doctor to kick it with them and say hey i’m feeling great you’re feeling great why don’t you just put me on thyroid medication it doesn’t work like that chances are you have some fatigue you have some brain fog you have some weight loss resistance you’re feeling cold all the time you maybe get light-headed and
Shaky and jittery you may feel faint and and you know that there potentially is a metabolic challenge should be put on the medication in the first place but i did it against my instincts and and forever after that i’m not feeling good and again that’s not to say that women and men that have thyroid challenges
Get put on medication and they all feel this way many of them it’s a lifesaver i just want to talk to you about the ones that have thyroid medication side effects and i want to explain to you what i explained to her which i think is very very valuable that most doctors don’t teach you and what that is is what does
The thyroid actually do what does the thyroid actually do and the thyroid plain and simple we can say well it helps your metabolism that’s true it makes you feel warmer it helps regulate your temperature that’s all true but what the thyroid does first and foremost is oxygen uptake into the cell kind of like
The old stoking the fire and making sure that it goes nice and high and burns nice and bright that’s what first and foremost the thyroid hormone does so if you can think about that of the thyroid hormone then you will understand what may be happened to this patient may have happened to you as well and what i would say
Is a disclaimer is don’t take my advice and just go and run with it i am not licensed to take you off medication i never am licensed to take a patient off of medication what i am licensed to do is support them and support the biochemistry support the root causes of the challenges support the cell danger now
Ask your endocrinologist have they read the research peer-reviewed journal written which is there’s two versions by dr robert navio it’s called cell danger response and it basically goes into a danger response just like you would stressed and you had a supply and demand problem your income was not higher than your
Expenses then you’re going to have to pick and choose what you primarily focus on i’m going to keep the power on i’m going to buy food i’m going to make sure i pay for my rent or my mortgage i got to pay my taxes but i’m sure as heck i’m not going to the riviera i’m not buying new shoes and i may not be going out for
Dinner very often that’s kind of a cell danger response but in your body the cell danger response happens to be certain things like slowing your thyroid metabolism slowing the uptake of oxygen into the cell now why would your body take the foot off the accelerator meaning your thyroid is the accelerator it brings oxygen
Up into the cell and when you bring oxygen into the cell what does that do that increases atp production because we have this thing called the mitochondria we have krebs cycle we have the electron transport chain we have oxidation phosphorylation these are all biochemistry things that we learn in high school
Need oxygen and oxygen is used to make atp but oxygen is also used to support free radical production or inflammation so if we have stress if we have a low-grade infection if we have a chemical exposure if we’re malnutrition or we have going to be depleted in oxygen availability high and your body is going to go
Into cell is going to be slowing the thyroid mechanics it’s not wrong your body is not falling apart it’s not broken in fact it’s working very very well and your body says hey i need to take my foot off the accelerator i’m going to stop putting free radicals into the circulation and create a lot of breakdown
Because that oxygen is needed for either atp production and or free radical production the body and its infinite intelligence will say i don’t want to make more free radicals or i have low fuel i’m not having a lot of extra reserve for atp to be produced from oxygen supply that i’m going to slow up on the thyroid function
So then that patient who’s not feeling good who’s feeling cold who’s not losing weight who has gi disturbances and brain fog and low libido goes to see the doctor right and the doctor in their wanting and willingness and desire to help you puts you on thyroid meds and what does that do the body inherently was
Taking its foot off the accelerator and now you have metabolic chaos in your body and now you have an in you may feel feel good whatsoever right from the get-go and now after that your pituitary may be faulty or may have a feedback issue it may not be sending messages to all of the different glands that rely
On the messages you may constantly be fatigued or palpitations or bloated and that’s what happened to her that’s what happened to her and i said you know what if that’s happening to her i need to tell the message to you who may have thyroid side effects from taking medication because you never got to the root cause of the
Problem now just to give you a little bit more information we did a genetic test on on this patient and we see she has iron oxidation issues meaning she is not metabolizing iron doesn’t mean she’s not absorbing iron it means she’s not getting iron into the bloodstream carried by transport nutrients getting
It to the cell and that is very important for red blood cells to be able to bind hemoglobin and oxygen together she’s anemic but she is feeling horrible with iron because there are some genetic susceptibilities where she’s not able to transport that iron effectively she’s anemic she’s not necessarily iron deficient
In her gi tract or in her tissues she’s iron deficient in other tissues and and and then she got put on iron and she said that wound her up into the hospital and i said well that seems very likely because in a chain of broken telephone if there’s six people in the telephone and the challenge is in between third
Person and fourth person i don’t yell at the first person louder to fix the third and fourth person that’s not going to get through to the other side and that’s what happened with her so it’s very important to look at the iron demand or the iron metabolism to look at the genetics she had really high neutrophils which were
Suggestive of major bacteria or microbial overgrowth in her gi tract and by be putting on medication for thyroid is not going to fix any of that it’s just not going to fix any of that so i wanted you to give you the information to say you know what it’s very real the cell danger response it’s very real that we
Have genetic information that can make priorities challenging in terms of oxygen delivery and atp production it’s very real that by putting by being put on medication you tip the balance in the favor of cell danger going haywire and creating metabolic chaos and now you’re left to pick up the pieces and the doctor
Tells you you’re crazy you’re a difficult client go see someone else be put on antidepressants or anti-anxiety medications and you’re not getting the help you’re looking for i want to tell you you’re not crazy i hopefully feel that this information gets a lot of light bulbs going off my name is dr joel rosen please
Subscribe to my youtube channel i have an amazing website called the truth about adrenal fatigue and i want you to put your comments in below so i can help you end your cell danger nightmare have an awesome day
