Hashimoto’s > See the Complete List

Hashimoto’s is characterized as an underactive thyroid, with autoimmune antibodies directed against the thyroid gland causing the thyroid gland to not produce enough hormones. Issues associated include metabolic, heart rate, and body temperature disfunctions. Common symptoms include fatigue, cold sensitivity, constipation, dry skin, hair loss, unexplained weight gain, and mood swings. Common causes stem from diet, untreated infections that can trigger an antibody response to the thyroid, and genetics. A high gluten diet can sometimes trigger hypothyroidism. At the Stram Center the root cause must be determined. Is it a problem directly with the thyroid? The brain? The adrenals? Extensive testing is available at the Stram Center to elucidate the etiology and thereby selective management of the condition. Our success with thyroid issues comes with much clinical experience utilizing specific supplementation therapies, and medications when indicated
