Functional Medicine Approach To Thyroid
Using Functional Medicine to Treat Thyroid Disease
Thyroid hormone helps the entire body with metabolism, energy production, and other purposes. Untreated thyroid issues can cause diabetes, mental health complexities, fatigue, weight gain, hormone dysfunction, and other disorders. Thyroid antibodies or malfunction, if predicted at an early stage, can prevent the need to execute the replacement of Thyroid hormone.
Since functional medicine consists of tests that improve the hormonal functioning and immune system, it gives an overall image of your health. Once the tests are completed, we will provide you with a considerate diagnosis. The last thing will be to create a customized therapy plan that will be tailored to your body’s requirements and improve your overall health.
The Functional Medicine Approach
Once we determine your cause of hypothyroidism, we take the necessary steps to modify your diet and lifestyle. This will increase your metabolism and overall thyroid wellbeing. This approach is different from conventional pharmacological therapy because it considers your disease-causing, lifestyle & wellness, and diet factors.
Instead of solely treating you based on your hormone levels, signs, and symptoms, a functional medicine approach considers your physical, social, environmental, and nutritional needs. Assessing you fully helps to identify the primary cause of your thyroid disorder that may be a mystery if only conventional treatments are used.
