Have you ever wondered if you’re health issues could be symptoms of Hyperthyroidism? Gary Brecka is breaking down the latest science, treatments, and what you can do to combat it. Hyperthyroidism, an endocrine disorder characterized by the overproduction of thyroid hormones, significantly disrupts the body's metabolic processes. The thyroid gland, located at the front of the neck, becomes excessively active, leading to symptoms such as rapid heart rate, weight loss, and nervousness. This condition predominantly affects women and can be triggered by factors like autoimmune diseases, particularly Graves' disease, thyroid nodules, and excessive iodine intake. The increase in thyroid hormones accelerates various bodily functions, causing patients to experience increased energy levels but also fatigue, heat intolerance, and sleep disturbances. You’ll learn about lifestyle changes to support thyroid health through nutrition, mindfulness, and reducing toxins!
