Undiagnosed Thyroid Problems Affect Millions of People!
Can't lose weight no matter how much you try?
Feeling depressed and have low energy?
Are your hands and feet always cold?
More than twenty million Americans have undiagnosed thyroid problems and may unknowingly be suffering from debilitating side effects such as depression, mental confusion, memory loss, difficult weight loss, respiratory infections, cold hands and feet, constipation and much more. And research shows that low thyroid levels can raise cholesterol levels, thus raising the threat of a heart attack.
What is the thyroid?
The thyroid, a small bow tie-shaped gland just below the Adam’s apple, plays a key role in controlling metabolism, or how the body functions. The thyroid produces hormones (T4 and T3), and chemicals that travel through the blood to all parts of the body. These hormones tell the body how fast to work and use energy. The thyroid gland regulates how many of these hormones to produce; so when the body needs more thyroid hormones the gland starts producing again.
If the thyroid gland produces too much hormone (hyperthyroidism) it makes the body use energy faster than it should, or if it produces too little (hypothyroidism) the body uses energy slower than it should.
What causes improper thyroid function?
Thyroid malfunction is generally due to autoimmune response by the body. This is where the body’s immune system produces antibodies which attack the gland and then cause hormone production to be upset. Generally the cause is due to build up of dangerous toxins such as chlorinated substances, viruses, pathogens, infections, pesticides, altered enzymes or hormones, etc. But how do you get things like "altered hormones"? The typical American diet is bombarded with chemical preservatives, additives, high heat processing, hydrogenated oil, excitotoxins like MSG and aspartame, artificial colorings and flavorings, and more. Many times processed, pre-packaged, and restaurant foods contain a multiple assortment of dangerous toxins, all in the interest of taste, convenience and shelf life. It is almost impossible to eat as our ancestors did, and because of this, our current foods, combined with unhealthy environmental factors, expose us to toxins the body was not meant to deal with.
Up to 70% of the population may be affected
This situation has been getting progressively worse and is estimated to affect as much as 70% of the population. Many people have very real and serious symptoms, yet their medical doctors are unable to determine the true cause, often treating them for the wrong ailment. Conventional medicine usually calls for THS blood screening to lab test for low thyroid levels, which is often inaccurate because it only identifies part of the picture. It does not show whether the thyroid hormones are working correctly in the body. Since blood levels may appear normal, many people don’t receive proper treatment even though they exhibit symptoms.
Self Test
There is a self test based on body temperature, developed by Dr. Broda Barnes, M.D., using an ordinary thermometer. Immediately upon awakening in the morning, while still in bed, place the thermometer under your armpit for 10 minutes. A normal temperature range would be between 97.8 to 98.2 degrees. Anything less than 97.8 indicates low thyroid, or hypothyroidism. Anything above 98.2 could indicate hyperthyroidism, or over-active thyroid. (Of course, we are not recommending that this test replace a doctor's advice.)
Pharmaceutical companies produce synthetic levothyroxine versions of “inactive” thyroid that very often don’t work. In many cases the synthetic versions don’t convert properly and patients often experience adverse symptoms.

Look for a natural solution
Scientific and medical studies show that there is hope to naturally repair and restore proper thyroid function. Clinical medical school and hospital studies show that specially prepared Fulvic extracts regulate abnormal thyroid secretion as a result of their ability to regulate RNA and DNA at the cellular level. Similar studies show that fulvic regulates immune system function. Nutritional therapists report that in many cases thyroid function resumes after only a few months when the body has been cleansed and has accumulated proper levels of nutrients.
Your best line of defense is to start supplementation with high quality Fulvic minerals and vitamin supplements. Fulvic is an all natural, water-soluble substance of plant origin. It contains healing phytochemicals and enzymes which readily disperse throughout the body, even to the interior of cells.
Fulvic is one of the safest and most powerful antiviral substances known, and provides a natural chelation therapy. It detoxifies the body, the liver and digestive tract by attaching to toxic buildup, including heavy metals, and chlorination byproducts where they disarm, neutralize, and remove them as waste products. They also neutralize dangerous free radicals, as well as supply hormone stimulating micronutrients.

Maintain Natural Balance
It is a well known fact that an excess of one mineral can cause a deficiency in another. Fulvic in the diet assists with maintaining proper balance. It chelates and removes the excess, while helping to nourish by supplying safe natural organic forms of minerals, in proper balance, as nature intended. Correcting an imbalance with a substance whose main function is to regain balance is the most natural solution. |
