Thyroid problems and treatments are more complex than simply trying a quick fix or Band-Aid solution for your hormones.

A holistic treatment plan involves more comprehensive treatments that standard thyroid testing won’t detect.

For example, elevated cortisol levels can damage the pituitary gland, which in turn reduces the amount of thyroid stimulating hormone and an excess of the stress hormone cortisol in your body can also impact the process of converting T4 to T3.

Optimum thyroid performance depends on a tightly woven interplay of processes, and traditional testing often falls short.

If you find yourself tired, bloated, nauseous or generally feeling heavy after eating meals you may be eating too much in one sitting and overwhelming your GI tract.

These symptoms are often linked to gastroparesis - a condition that means the stomach empties too slowly and causes unpleasant digestive symptoms.

Eating smaller, more frequent meals has been shown to help. This can look like a smaller breakfast, lunch and dinner with a snack in between each meal.
Drinking plenty of water throughout the day, a positive mindset around eating and recognizing hunger and fullness cues are also important.

Eating smaller, more frequent meals has also been shown to help those with trouble regulating blood sugar, metabolism and weight management as well.

You know the saying - “An apple a day keeps the doctor away!” Apples are a popular fruit with pretty impressive health benefits.
Here’s why you should get them while they’re in season.

Apples are a good source of fiber, vitamins C and K, potassium and plant polyphenols - compounds found in plants that have beneficial antioxidant properties.
The fiber content of apples makes them a prebiotic food, feeding your good gut bacteria and great for improving overall gut health.

Apples are an easy snack on the go, great on oats, in juices and baked into healthy desserts.
Be sure to leave the skin on your apples, as this is where half of their beneficial fiber lives. If doing so, make sure to wash your apples before consuming to get rid of any harmful chemical residues. A soak in water and vinegar for 10 minutes will do the trick.

New research is suggesting that spending more time indoors and increased screen time may be linked to an increased rate of short-sightedness in children.

Myopia is a major health concern worldwide and an uptick has been noticed in recent years. Studies show that a major risk factor is insufficient time spent in outdoor activities and too much time spent in front of screens and doing near-work activities such as reading, writing and watching TV.

This research comes in a time where Covid-19 restrictions have had children spending more and more time using screens to learn and as their only form of entertainment.

The good news is that spending more time outdoors and engaging in play and sports has shown to have a protective role for the eyes. It’s also great to incorporate regular breaks from screens throughout the day and even “unplugging” for the day whenever possible.

Feeling tired? You could be iron deficient!

The first symptom of mild iron deficiency is fatigue, weakness or the feeling of brain fog.

Women are most at risk for iron deficiency due to heavy menstrual flow, pregnancy or in the perimenopausal stage.
Many women even remain iron deficient after delivering their baby which adds on to their feelings of exhaustion and “mommy brain”.

Diet also plays a large role in iron levels. Foods such as legumes and seeds contain non-heme iron which is not as easily absorbed by the body as it’s counterpart, heme iron, found in meat. For this reason, vegans and vegetarians are more at risk for iron deficiency.
Digestive conditions such as celiac disease, IBS (irritable bowel syndrome) and inflammatory bowel disease will affect our absorption of iron as well.

Speak with your healthcare provider if you suspect you may be iron deficient- supplementation, proper dietary intake and monitoring levels can help bring your iron levels back up to where they need to be.

L-5 hydroxytryptophan, or 5-HTP, is a compound created by our bodies from the amino acid L-Tryptophan which helps to create serotonin.

Serotonin is a key player in improving mood and mental health and also plays a role in digestive health, regulating appetite, and cardiovascular health. Serotonin is also a precursor for melatonin which helps regulate and improve sleep. It has also been shown to help relieve migraine pain and some symptoms of fibromyalgia.

As mentioned, 5-HTP itself cannot be obtained from food, we need the amino-acid L-Tryptophan to produce it.
L-Tryptophan is found in white meats, milk, potato, turnip, greens, seaweed, pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds.
You can, however, find 5-HTP in supplement form. Be sure to speak with your healthcare provider to see if this supplement is right for you.

A part of healthy thyroid function relies on diet. Iodine in particular is an important mineral needed for healthy thyroid function and helps control growth, repair damaged cells and support a healthy metabolism

Here are some of iodine rich foods to keep your thyroid functioning properly:

Seafood such as shrimp, sea bass, haddock and tuna contain a good amount of iodine that has accumulated from seawater.

Much like sea creatures, seaweed is also an excellent plant based source of iodine.

Eggs are a great addition to a thyroid-friendly diet but keep in mind the iodine is particularly found in the yolk.

Strawberries and cranberries are great sources of iodine, as are baked potatoes and beans.

Ingredients

3 cups (300 grams) old-fashioned rolled oats

In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until fully combined. Add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix until well combined. Add the chopped apple and gently mix it in.
Evenly distribute the mixture between all 12 cavities in the prepared muffin pan. Bake at 350°F for 25 to 27 minutes, or until the tops of the oatmeal cups are lightly golden brown and firm.

Your thyroid is a small organ with a huge impact on all aspects of your health. Imbalances in thyroid hormone can negatively affect your digestive tract, brain, heart, metabolism, glucose and cholesterol levels, and much more.

Thyroid problems are one of the most under-diagnosed conditions in the world. As many as 60% of people with thyroid problems aren’t aware. That’s a lot of people experiencing unnecessary health issues!

The trouble is, many thyroid treatments fall short when it comes to improving a patient’s quality of life and at the root is inadequate testing! Traditionally, only testing for thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) levels and one for the hormone thyroxine (T4) is being done and this falls short of what needs to be determined and which course of action needs to be taken to improve thyroid function.
