Some Facts About Thyroid Disease
- Thyroid Disease is an Epidemic – About 27 million Americans suffer from thyroid disease (1 out of every 12 people), and Low Thyroid, or Hypo-Thyroid conditions affect Women much more frequently than men.
- 90% of Low Thyroid conditions are due to an Auto-Immune condition called “Hashimoto’s.”
- The Standard medical treatment for Low Thyroid (thyroid hormone replacement), DOES NOT stop the Auto-Immune attack on the Thyroid Gland.
- Many patients continue to have symptoms, even with hormone replacement.
- Specific Nutritional Support can stop the Auto-Immune attack on the Thyroid gland.
- Take the next step and get the help you need. Schedule a consultation with our office today.
Are You Tired of the Medical Run-Around?
Dr. Glenn Larsen offers a different approach to naturally supporting your health, that goes beyond thyroid replacement hormone.
If you have low thyroid symptoms and have gone to a medical or alternative practitioner, you have probably been prescribed thyroid replacement hormone. And, when only one blood indicator (TSH) registers “normal”, you are told that the treatment is successful.
If you have any further symptoms, they are dealt with by more drugs (for depression), or told it’s all in your head (fatigue, muscle pain), or told that your weight gain is due to lack of will power (even if you eat well and exercise).
Have you been through this?
Most people who have sought help with low-thyroid conditions, have been through this run-around.
A Different Approach
I will take the time to learn about you, and your individual circumstances. I will ask you a lot of questions so that I have your Complete Health History, and I will order a very Comprehensive Blood Evaluation of your thyroid function and other factors that can contribute to your condition; including, blood sugar disorders, hormone regulation, anemia patterns, and adrenal dysfunction.
Are You Ready to Take Control of Your Health?
Ninety percent of all low thyroid conditions in the U.S. are Auto-immune in nature; which means that your immune system is attacking your own thyroid gland.
Autoimmune conditions start with some genetic component, but get “turned-on” by a trigger. Some possible triggers are environmental compounds, food sensitivities, endocrine imbalances, chemical exposures, stress responses, antigen responses.
The conventional approach to low thyroid, prescribing thyroid replacement hormone, does not address the cause.
If you want to gain control of your thyroid condition, and start to experience life without the debilitating symptoms associated with this condition, you need to get to the cause, and change what is triggering your symptoms.
