Why do so many people have thyroid disorders? How come the blood tests may be inaccurate?
As I discuss in Overcoming Thyroid Disorders, up to 40% of the population may be suffering from a thyroid disorder. How can these numbers be so high? One of the main reasons is that our diet does not supply enough iodine. Furthermore, the toxic exposure to substances that inhibit thyroid function are increasing. The commonly used blood tests may be inaccurate to diagnose a thyroid disorder in a large segment of the population. I describe how to recognize a thyroid problem and how to implement a holistic treatment regimen to help you overcome/prevent a thyroid disorder.
