The thyroid is a very important hormone! Not only does it affect every organ, cell and hormone in the body, we cannot survive without its presence. As we age, it decreases and with this comes among many other negative side effects, including our least favorite – weight gain.
Renowned hormone specialist Dr. Neal Rouzier says of one of his patients: “After two months (on thyroid replacement therapy), her added pounds began to fall off.”
When an individual is suffering from imbalanced thyroid levels, a proper diet and vigorous exercise routine are of no use. Improvement in weight can only be obtained once thyroid levels are optimized.
Like all other hormone replacement therapy, natural is always best. That is why it is in your best interest when beginning this type of treatment to only see specialists that practice bioidentical hormone replacement therapy. We offer a huge list of such specialists nationwide at: www.bioidenticalhormonedoctors.com.
Thyroid levels are easily checked with a simple blood test. If your levels are inadequate, then you are most likely suffering from a decreased breakdown of fat and slower cellular metabolism.
If you are still not sure whether you should have your thyroid levels checked, please consider these other benefits of this very special hormone: * increased metabolism, temperature and warmth, increase of fat breakdown, lower cholesterol, protection against cardiovascular disease, improvement of cerebral metabolism, prevention of cognitive impairment. Low thyroid also causes sparse hair, dry skin, thin nails, fatigue and depression.*
We here at www.bioidenticalhormonedoctors.com are here to help you feel and look the best that you possibly can. Please delay yourself this right no further and contact a specialist in your area today!
