Thyroid disorders and autoimmune diseases are on the rise dramatically these days and they are a common phenomenon in most modern societies. But have you ever thought that the information you are receiving and the kind of thyroid or autoimmune treatment you are following is not enough or is not efficient? Additionally, how can you consider any treatment to be efficient if your health is still poor and new negative symptoms keep appearing in other areas of the body? The reality is that without exactly knowing what is going on in your body, you can’t take proper decisions about your health. Here is some essential information you should understand about thyroid disease and autoimmune conditions.

Hypothyroidism: Symptoms and Causes

Hypothyroidism is the most common thyroid disorder. There are many causes for this condition, but among the most common are: the pituitary gland not sending enough TSH to the thyroid, or a thyroid that doesn’t produce enough T4 and T3 for the cells. Deficiencies in essential nutrients for the thyroid like selenium, zinc, iron, vitamin D or B vitamins, as well as thyrosine and iodine are at the core of hypothyroidism.

But most of the times, hypothyroidism appears following the autoimmune disease Hashimoto thyroiditis, when it has progressed far enough to destroy the thyroid tissue. 

Hypothyroidism leads to a slowing down of metabolic processes and this will in turn lead to numerous symptoms: fatigue, weight problems, cold hands and feet, constipation, poor concentration, low libido, infertility, depression, slow cardiac rhythm, low body temperature.
