    The reason why Big Pharma is having doctors only prescribe T4 is that eventually it causes other complications so they prescribe more drugs, on and on it goes.

    Obviously natural dessicated thyroid is the best, as it contains not only T3/T4, but other compounds the thyroid produces. Pharma always makes the mistake of trying to fix problems with some isolated compound they can sell as a drug. I know that pharma has now changed the category of natural dessicated to a "biologic' treatment - obviously to discourage its use and at least make more profit if it is used (because there will be demand). It will also make it more expensive, and I suspect insurance companies will not want to cover it. It sure does seem like mainstream medicine wants to keep us sick. I don't know why anyone would even bother with just T4 treatment - given that there are negative consequences to just using T4 - as one would expect! If a person is symptomatic, they need T3 - and won't feel better with just T4. I think this man has a lot of good knowledge, but I disagree with him about most people being able to convert T4 to T3. People have symptoms b/c they lack T3, not T4! Imo, the level of T3 is much more important. He is still pharma affiliated and wants to support their primary product, which is T4. Despite what doc says. I don't think so many people on just T4 are doing that well - they just don't know there is anything better.Of course most docs just look at numbers - which can look okay, but not tell the whole story. Symptoms should always be primary.

    I was diagnosed with low Thyroid in 1980 at age 30 and was put on natural thyroid. The dose was gradually increased until I felt normal. Tests showed it was high but my Dr. treated my symptoms. When he retired 15 years later, new Dr. switched me to Levothyroxine and lowered the dose to a 1/3rd of my regular dose without doing a blood test. I started going downhill. Went to an Endocrinologist in another State who immediately upped my dosage and put me on T3 as well. I felt better but still was lacking. My regular Dr. kept me on the Levothyroxine and Cytomel but refused to switch me to natural Thyroid. I switched Dr.’s and new Dr. put me on Armor Thyroid with Cytomel. Levothyroxine has lactose as a filler and I’m lactose intolerant. New combination of Armor and Cytomel is much better. Sometimes we have to fight for our health.

      Interesting, thank you for sharing that. Sorry you had to go through that. Have you hear about what pharma is doing now to make Armor and other natural dessicated forms harder to get? And - not sometimes, ALWAYS we have to fight for our health, we have to educate ourselves as much as possible and ask for what we need. It's hard, especially when you don't have a lot of energy - but it is not even safe anymore to just blindly trust a mainstream, or even 'alternative' provider. I'm sorry you had to suffer for a awhile but glad you found some help. Good point about the inactive ingredients in meds - no one ever talks about that ,and most doctors will also dismiss any concerns!

      @buckeyelady65 ปีที่แล้ว

      Do you have antibodies attacking your thyroid? If so, you have Hashimoto's autoimmune condition. Nobody really knows why, but it's a whole lot more dx'd today than the past. Therefore, we are not hooked on this drug, but we are dependent to it. If there was a way to 'fix' the thyroid or get rid of antibodies that'd be great, because like you, i and everyone would love to have to stop taking it. I hate it. It's damn if I do or damned if I don't take it. If you don't have Hashimoto's you need an ultra sound of your thyroid, and assessment of your diet and any drugs or supplements to find out why your thyroid hormones are low (with of course a high TSH)

      @@KenJackson_US If you do NOT have antibodies, then you could possibly look into healing your thyroid. If you do have antibodies, then you would need to get rid of them before you can give up thyroid hormone replacement. How? Some say through diet, you'll need to seek out info. Some say we have low stomach acid and it as well as leaky gut causes antibodies. It's truly a mission of your own accord. You do not have to rely on doctors to write you labs, you can easily by them on your own. I like a few places, but BLT Systems is rather affordable. Life Extension (vitamin mfr) they sell them as well. Doctor's Data sells gastro tests and all kinds. It's nice to have a doc helping you break it down, or help you on your quest, those doctors would be Functional Medicine or Integrative Medicine docs. They're more popular now, so you may have some in your area, but look for one who has an MD, or an NP with experience to help. You won't find another type of mainstream MD to help. Nor an endo.

    Thank you for the great presentation. Here in the USA t seems almost all doctors are entrenched in the TSH/reflex to T4 mode. What amazes me is that I got myself up to date on the latest science just watching a few TH-cam videos like this one but doctors can't take a few hours to do the same. This is true in other areas also such as bone health, basic metabolism/food pyramid, inflammatory diet just to name a few I have investigated. Most doctors are stuck with concepts that are five or ten years out of date and sometimes fifty years in the case of hypothyroidism. TH-cam has the creation date on videos so it's easy to skip outdated science. Some excellent videos, such as this one, explain the history of how the outdated thinking got started so the user can understand why the outdated thinking persists. The one area that I wish all thyroid presenters would do is to always define their terms and specify exactly which substance they are referring to: is it total T3, Free T3, serum T3 ? Also, what is a proper "normal range?" What is a "supressed TSH?."

    I have known that people who take only t3 is because they can not convert t4 to t3.

    Thank you Dr Bianco. This video needs to be seen by every Endocrinologist and General Practitioner in the U.K. and worldwide to help patients not responding to T4 treatment only such as Levothyroxine. Many of us are gaslighted by our practitioners (my experience is in the U.K.) as they only measure the TSH or are guided by this result only and if they see it in what they regard as the normal range we are dismissed or offered antidepressants for our fatigue etc. If only you could spread the word to every medical practitioner prescribing to patients with Hypothyroidism about the importance of correct testing etc. and why the current system is failing a percentage of us. Very enlightening and please keep sharing your findings. Thank you again.

      I wish we could get Drs in Canada to listen to this! Also big Pharma is to blame for telling pharmacist and Drs lies in order to sell more product!

      🇺🇸. Absolutely, totally agree with your statements. It certainly is malpractice to have uninformed endocrinologist practice in the field and tend to patients who are crying for appropriate medical attention. Those endo doctors need to be monitored by a medical board and required to keep up to date in order to treat patients. Apparently undiagnosed correctly by incompetent endo doctors is a negligence of oath to the medical profession and destruction of health to patients. 🇺🇸
