Optimizing
your thyroid can help relieve
menopausal
symptoms…and control weight
According to the Thyroid
Foundation of America over 11 million women have a malfunctioning thyroid and
it is believed that there could be tens of millions more women with
“borderline” underactive thyroid function (hypothyroidism). Decreased
thyroid function appears to be striking women in perimenopause and menopause
(ages 35 to 55) harder than any other group.
The symptoms of weight gain,
along with fatigue, hot flashes, insomnia, irritability, palpitations, and
"fuzzy” thinking have been shown to be thyroid-related in many women in this
category.
As main regulators of the body's
rate of metabolism, thyroid hormones have profound impact on weight
and controls how the body burns carbohydrates and fats.
Hypothyroidism occurs when the thyroid gland does not produce enough of these
“energy-generating” thyroid hormones causing a low resting metabolic rate
which can cause weight gain and obesity.
In addition to disrupting
metabolism, thyroid imbalances also affect appetite control. Studies
suggest that thyroid hormones may modulate levels of leptin, a hormone
produced from fat cells that is believed to control hunger and stabilize
energy levels.
Weight control, how much energy
people have, how well they get up in the morning, how well they sleep, and how
much stamina they have for the day is directly related to their levels of
thyroid hormone. When your thyroid level is too low, you don't have
the energy to cope adequately with anything, much less the additional stress
and emotional liability associated with the menopausal years.
Menopause is not an illness, but
it can begin to feel that way if your thyroid is low or borderline at the time
of your change...supplementation
