Could u help me please to loss my weight and control my hyperthyroidism
Yes i have thyroid problem it's the low thyroid in want to no what can i eat to help with my Thyroid? i take Medicine but i will like to no about the foods, as what to eat in what's not to eat. Thank u Dr. 12-5-19 was on your channel
Dr. Ekberg, I’m reading about hypothyroid and not eating Cruciferous vegetables and this came up:
“Fats have been found to disrupt the body's ability to absorb thyroid hormone replacement medicines, says Stephanie Lee, MD, PhD, associate chief of endocrinology, nutrition, and diabetes at Boston Medical Center and an associate professor at the Boston University School of Medicine in Massachusetts.”
Thoughts? If this is the case then Keto would be out of the question?
Hello Dr Ekberg,
Would you have any advise for a Tsh of 0.01 mu/L? Thank you.
i got all these symptoms, most of the time i freeze aswell, chills, burning hands n lips. bloods are "normal"
Earlier this year I was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism. Dr instantly put me on Carbimazole, which in turn started messing up my liver. I stopped taking it and changed my diet (later to Keto) and I've been symptom free for almost 9 months and I've never felt so fit and healthy in my life! My point is- question every drug (you can say no to the doctor) and change your diet.
Now what’s latest situation. Could you please respond?
Thanks you Kerrie, happy for you.
Any updates on your overall health?
What were your symptoms?
Thank you 🙏🏻
So you didn’t take any medication ?
As a physician I thank you for your clear teaching

Your knowledge of the human body seems unlimited... But above all you are the best of lecturers, because you speak clear enough for us to hear every single, important word, and slow enough for us to be able to process (and thus remember) all the new information. THANK YOU!
Dr. Eckberg is a gift to the world, no doubt!
I agree!
YES!! He's so EASY for the layman to understand!
Thank you so much. I have been on Synthroid for 18 years, and no one ever gave me this level of detail, even when I asked for it. Very frustrating. I am now living a ketogenic lifestyle, and my current doctor and I are hoping to wean me off this medication this fall. Wish me luck!
How did weaning off go?
Could you please update us about your current thyroid situation? Are you still taking Synthroid?
I'd love an update to! I tried to wean off mine and instantly gained 20lbs they put me on T4 and the weight is coming off

synthroid is not a medicine..it is just a hormone which ur body makes...
Hi Dr Ekberg, I’m a 45 y/o female who just had a complete blood panel done including auto immune antibody test for the thyroid. All blood work came back phenomenal except auto immune test points to hashimotos. I’ve been doing a lot of research and remember one of your videos was talking about sucralose being created due researchers finding a pesticide was sweet. I put 2:2 together and looked up whether there was a correlation between artificial sweeteners and thyroid issues. Low and behold there appears to be a strong correlation. I am going to get myself off of artificial sweeteners and get tested again as a case study of a 52 y/o woman who had the same situation and her levels went down by avoiding them. I wanted to post this in case anyone is reading or if you have any insight to share. Thank you so very much for all of your videos. They mean everything to us in a world with very little real 1:1 healthcare advise and too much pill pushing!
Glossyvixen is it just sucralose? What about stevia??
Thank you for your valuable information.. it will help immensely. Every one who are in research are serving humanity
@@richardsarabi2064 I'm on this learning road too, so I'm NO AUTHORITY, but from what I've learned, Stevia is a PLANT, it's NATURAL and more of a healthy choice. To me, Stevia is bitter and has an after taste. I'm having trouble giving up my Splenda.
@@jacquelynking2184 Splenda is man made and unfortunately is bad for us all. The sad thing is we were all brought up with sweet drinks and now we expect them. But I will put up with a little strangeness in the stevia taste versus Splenda which is known to be bad for you.
Thanks Dr.Ekberg for this presentation. It was really easy to understand.
As a hashimoto patient here are some tips from me:
-Stay away from alcohol: If you take alcohol regularly or in high volumes,you are destroying your liver and upsetting your guts. An unhealthy liver can't produce T3 and T4.
-Avoid gluten: Gluten causes inflammation in guts and that's going to reduce the amount of inactive T3s being activated in guts. Also, gluten can mimic thyroid hormones and that causes immune response if you have hashimotos.
-Supplement Selenium: Selenium is an important substance that helps with detoxification of heavy metals which are harmful for thyroid. Selenium also helps with glutation which energizes thyroid cells so they are more active. Selenium also has a vital role in a mechanism that protects thyroid cells from immune attacks. Check your selenium blood levels,and take supplementaries if you lack it.
-Avoid stress: This is not easy thing to do, but you can always change some stuff about yourself. Try having positive outlook at life. Maybe learn meditation,or find hobbies that can relieve your stress. You can even try therapy sessions if you have difficulties.
-If you have hashimoto, taking synthetic thyroid hormones will cause immune response,and over time, you will lose more and more tyhroid cells and production. This will only make you increase the synthetic dose and that will further aggravate the problem. So it is an endless cycle UNLESS you are willing to change your lifestyle and eating habits. Just don't increase the dose by your own decision. Always get a professional opinion and don't neglect your regular blood analysis.
And iodine as kelp ? Can you take that
Easy selenium is three Brazil nuts a day.
Avoid conventional endocrinologists for a consultation. Under this kind of conventional doctors will eventually to lead to thyroid removal. If that will happen you will depend entirely to synthetic levothyroxine for the rest of your life
How bout np thyroid meds
There’s no cure other than synthetic T4: All those other things only make minor differences
Could you make a video about Hypothyroid on the Keto diet? What to watch for and aware of? The video will help a lot of folks who are suffering from Hypothyroid but wanted to get healthier.
Excellent suggestion!!!
Yes please
Yes
Yes, please! I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism but was taken off the Synthroid and levothyroxine by my pcp.
Addling it with I/f and prolong fasting that would be very important for those with hypothyroid.
I have been doing keto for almost a year, and I do research every single day and just discovered your videos and I'm happy to do so! You are a great teacher!
I find Dr Ekberg to be the best. His info is clear and detailed enough.
Hi does keto help to deal with hypothyroidism ? My Dr ask me to avoid gluten
He is great....
You don't miss the gluten in foods ..actually food digest better and you don't have that heavy feeling after meals..gluten free one year ...😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
@@seriouseater7159 most do not eat gluten in keto diets
Dr Ekberg, thank you very much for the video. I learned so much from it.
I've just found this gem from 2017. I hope my friend with hyperthyroid will get some tips from this video.
Tx for great material.
GJ Dr. Ekberg.
Absolutely brilliantly explained. Thank you so much.
You have the best straight forward information on youtube, THANK YOU DR. EKBERG
I had hyperthyroidism when I was a kid, did radioactive iodine treatment and now have hypothyroidism
This is gold... Thank you SO much Dr. Sten
Thank you Dr Ekberg. I’m learning so much from your lectures.
Life saving information!!
Hi doc, thank you for all that you do. My health has gotten much better since I started watching your channel. I learn a lot. Can you also make a video about hyperthyroid? Thanks again.
Firstly, Dr Ekberg, i want to thank you on bottom of my heart. I learned so much about IF and keto, as well as my Hyperthyroid. I experienced nearly every symptoms (especially hair loss, anxiety, depression, weight gain and feeling cold all the time) and im on a medication for about 1,5 years now. After i took medication, i felt normal but i experienced fatique all the time, after yoyo dieting and gaining over 10kgs, i started IF then im currently trying to get into ketosis, i feel amazing, like i never lived so much in my entire 21 years of life. So thank you for educating me and if its okay to do that, i want to educate others in my country (Turkey) through my videos that i want to start to make.
Its great to see someone wanting to share the knowledge. This is something I also have thought about however, my Turkish is not so perfect. I sincelery hope you will be very successful in taking some of this wisdom to the Turkey.
Thank you Doc. 🙏🏻
This is the best on explaining Thyroid , everybody can understand clearly !
On the top with subtitles ! 👍🏻
One of the best explanations about Thyroid. Thank you!
Another great video. Very good information about everything thyroid. Love it! Thank you, Dr Ekberg.
Great video and truely the best info about the thyroid I’ve seen so far. Thanks a million 🥰

In this video you will learn about hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism and hashimoto's thyroiditis - the causes and solutions.
Dr. Sten Ekberg hello what happens when you have some of the “hipo” signs and also some of “hyper” is my thyroid confused?!
I have been tested for both but for some reason my Dr. only order the standard test.even when I requested her to do a complete test. And now I don’t know what to do. I feel tired, sleepy, overweight, dry and oily skin( yes I have both)oily scalp and face . But dry feet and hands🤦🏻♀️, also thinning hair, brain fog, can’t fall asleep fast, poor digestion, puffy face, irregular menstrual cycle, high blood pressure,and also fast heart rate. I’m a mess and can’t function normally. Following the KETO way of eating for six weeks and can’t lose weight 🙇🏻♀️😪
For me, I figured out I'm not eating enough, did you test that you are in ketosis? I just want to do lchf, I figured put I'm not eating enough

Hypothyroidism hyperthyroidism and hashmoto’s thyroiditis - the causes and solutions-4 yr ago please !
I need help, because I just discovered hyperthyroidism
I regrew a thyroid that had mostly been removed when I was 10 years old. It was hyperactive. In my twenties, I started a macrobiotic diet which is whole grains, beans, veg and Seaweed. Seaweed stimulates thyroid function (not for hyperthyroid). I had an ultrasound in my thirties that confirmed it was fully there and functioning normally. Had they not left a piece in, I doubt it could have recovered. That diet also cured my allergies (miso soup everyday helped heal my gut). I know some people have difficulty with grains and beans but that diet worked like a charm for me.
Amazing story, you're living proof of the bodies healing capabilities! I love beans but, can't eat them. They make me so sleepy. 😴😋
Macrobiotics worked for me re Lyme disease 8yrs ago..however now i. might need something else. my liver isnt great but the macro diet wasnt easy for me to do and i got too narrow with the diet.Its not easy some of the time! Ive developed IBD so worse than before and some other things including liver stuff. Big problem with medical they just want to whip orgns out and it dosent always solve health issues ...unless its dangerous cancerous growth id always think about keeping my internal bits!
@@satka2mau487 yes, I think the diet is too low fat for the long term. I also had to change my diet from the macrobiotic diet. After menopause, I’ve changed it again. Ayurveda has been the key to understanding my body and the root causes of any imbalance. You need a good Ayurvedic practitioner or doctor. I also think that the functional medical doctors can be very helpful.
@@SpiritHawk thanks somebody on my Lyme forum has also suggested my problems might be pancreas. yellow ish whites of eyes and skin , palms of hands...not good. used to eat buckets loads fruit chocolate etc... some years ago now. have reformed but wasnt easy as both parents passed and other stuff to deal with..i need to research pancreas now s well
thanks
@@satka2mau487 Hello - I hope you are doing better now
My Dad is suffering with thyroid problems and I was wondering if you'd mind updating me on what your diet looks like these days? I'm trying to find natural ways of helping him, as doctors have consistently failed to find a root problem. Thank you in advance!
Once again, thank you for explaining what has been my challenge for over 50 years. I am well on my way to no symptoms.
I started watching your videos 3 days ago, and I really love the dedication you put into all of them. About 6 months ago I had a routine blood test and it seemed to show just a little bit of a slow thyroide. I took another blood test today and I'm afraid that it will still be slow because if that's the case my doctor is going to put me on medication, which I don't want. Would you recommend starting a keto diet in this circumstances?
This bring teardrops 😭 I’ve been suffering now I’ve got the understanding thanks so much 👍❤️😉
Thank you Ruth Henry. I really appreciate your feedback and so glad you liked it. The greatest compliment you can give is to help us help more people by sharing the videos.

Thankyou, it’s all so complicated but you do a great job of explaining things. 😊
Congratulations, your analytic style puts light on different myths about health and nutrition , you go away from simplistic viewss. Thanks a lot for your orientations.
Thanks for helping me comprehend my myriad of illness.
You are a great teacher Dr. Ekberg
What an Excellent Presentation -- Thank You
Thank you Wm. I really appreciate your feedback and so glad that you liked it.
Brilliant Knowledge! Thank you Doctor!!!
It took over a year for my doctor to diagnose me with hypothyroid. I had all the symptoms but he couldn’t connect them. I ballooned up to be unrecognizable to friends and family, I could barely walk because I had such bad cramps in my legs. I was (am) depressed so he put me on antidepressants. Now I’m on Synthroid and I’m still just as sick! It’s awful living like this, the strange thing is I also have a lot of the symptoms of being hyperthyroid that you’ve described. I have zero faith in the medical system. my doctor keeps telling me to lose weight because I have also been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes….right….like that’s just so easy! I feel like a complete train wreck. I have started to cut out sugar and carbs. Just finished my second day. I am determined to get healthy if I can! These videos have helped more in just two days than any doctor I’ve ever had.
change your dr Lindsey. and I'm with you about the corrupted medical system. but keep searching and don't give up,
How are you doing?
You’ve seen the light only if stopped any/all sugars (all. incl artificial), all grains, and any dary but raw dairy homemade yogurt. A bit of butter ok if grassfed/organic. NO seed/veg oils.
So: beef, lamb, game meat, oily fish, eggs if not allergic GREEN and colorful veggies, garlic,onions,leeks.
Thank you so much. You are a wonderful teacher and I listen to you every day. I have thyroid nodules and I have recently started a Keto lifestyle. Are there any other ways I can help myself? X
Thank you, Dr. Ekberg!
Thanks for sharing and educating us!! God bless you more!!
You are an excellent teacher. Thank you!
wow what an education thank you for this. God Bless You.
Thank you. What a clear explanation.
Best explanation I’ve come across. I’ll be sending this link to my Ayurvedic clients. Thanks!

Excellent explanation! I understand so much better now,.
Excellent and extremely valuable information.
Thank you for such clear explanation. It's much more comprehensible now!
So helpful, thanku!
I really really love the way you teach . I got an Honourable dr Sten Ekberg excellent job .thank You so much
I've been following your videos and thank you for all the detailed teaching about health. I had thyroidectomy back in 2002 and am 58 years old now and i am trying a low carb diet to prevent a sugar excalation as i understand it from your insulin series. But i wonder if you can also do a series for us whove had surgery. I'm thin and never experienced weight problem in my life but i value knowing about growth hormone in the brain. Thank you very much.
Thanks for helping me out with your classes
Excellent explanation. Thank you.
Brilliant. Thank you!
Thank you ketobee. I really appreciate your feedback and so glad that you liked it. The purpose of my channel is to explain things better than other channels and help people understand the principles. Comments like yours makes it all worthwhile.
I knew someone who had hyperthyroid and he worked with an herbalist and the main herb that helped him was lemon balm.
Thanks for the information!🌻
Great detailed information. Thank you very much doctor
Your videos are so helpfull and it helps to understand the thyriod better with your videos. Thx
Fantastic series of health videos! I enjoy how completely you address each topic in a balanced fashion. My question is about taking Resveratrol for longevity and alpha-Lipoic Acid for nerve function if one has hypothyroidism, Hashimoto and taking Levothyroxine. Also is there a particular probiotic that helps the thyroid?
great questions...hope you will be able to answer them @DR Ekberg
This was very helpful information
Thank goodness I came across this video. I watch your videos but just saw the endocrinology for another useless appointment. It is a shame we cannot get a refund on the appointment failures.
I was born without a thyroid gland, been taking meds all my life, as I get older it gets harder to lose weight but I am working on this, one by improving my diet and more exercise
I am waiting for an appointment with an endocrinologist But I know I need to be tested for T3 rather than just TSH, Most GP's in the UK only test for TSH which is not sufficient to get optimal function.
This is a very good explanation of how it works, Thanks Dr Ekberg!
Wow this is incredibly helpful
Best explanation of thyroid ever!!!
Love your content! Very clear explanation. Can you please make a video on Diabetis Inspidus and natural way to improve ADH hormone if any 🙏
Thank you so much for this video 💕
Thank you! I would love to know if IF is recomended for people with Hypothyroidism
Thank you so much Dr Ekberg, I'm suffering from hypothyroid for more than 20 years. I really think is Hashimoto, also have leaky gut and arthritis .I saw different Drs no improvement.
Dr. Ekberg I love listening to your videos so much, you are a living, walking, medical encyclopaedia.
I have utmost respect for you so much so that I pass your videos onto my very mature 13 years old grandfather who practices healthy lifestyle and healthy diet.

I really love your videos. They have helped my husband get his glucose levels under 100 without medication, from diet alone. They had been over 200. I have had hypothyroidism since the end of the 1980s. When the doctor came into the room, she said that I should weigh over 300 pounds. I weighed 110. My TSH was not high at the time, but my hormone levels must have been awful low. I did not get to see the test results back then. They asked me if I had had a head injury. I had. I was in a car accident where I was thrown out of the car and used my head like a shovel into the embankment. They said that the pituitary gland was not sending enough stimulating hormones to keep my levels where they should be, that they would not be using the TSH, but would work to get the hormone levels into the normal range, which took about 5 years. My energy levels at that time were very low. I slept a lot and needed help just walking short distances. After my levels were normal, my family doctor took over the prescription until about 2015 when my doctor retired. Since then I can only find TSH only endocrinologists. They took me off my thyroid meds completely, which was disastrous. They kept lowering my meds to get their ideal TSH. Meanwhile, my T4s and T3s kept dropping. My T3s especially have kept dropping. I was on Synthroid. I am now just switched to Thyroid Armour, but apparently the dose is way low. My T3s are supposed to be above 80. They are 44. My free T4s are .65, but should be at least .80. Is there any help for me? I eat whole real food. I don't eat processed food. I am not diabetic. My glucose levels run between 88 and 99. I can't find a doctor to help. I did find some doctors here that use a more holistic approach, but I am on a 10 month wait list to get in to see someone. I have a lot of thyroid symptoms, but the doctor says that my symptoms have nothing to do with my thyroid. Please advise.
Thank you, Lola Brown
Your story does not say which type of hormone was rx’d that “got you back in the normal range” for so many years, before your family md retired. Do you not remember?
I am interested . . . I would think you would be too. It should be in your medical records, and/or prescribing pharmacy - check there!
Thank you, Dr Ekberg for such clear explanation on this complex topic. I found it hard to follow many webpages on this (despite studying Pharmacology in uni) but I understand your extremely easy-to-follow video.
Great video ,easy to understand ,you are great at explaining things thank you
Thank you so much. That warms my heart. What you said is exactly what I try to do.
Thanks for the video
Thank you very much
Amazing! Thank-you!
Thank you Dr Ekberg for all the amazing videos. I am learning a lot about healthy diet and good nutrition especially when you have inflammation. I just had my thyroidectomy and this video taught me many things. My doctor did not explain much of the things to understand having thyroidectomy. I think if you can create a video about the effects of thyroidectomy in our human body, it would help more patients because of your profound knowledge in medicine and you are an excellent speaker. I like the way you talk about a topic and how you deliver it. You talk clearly and very precise and I know most of your viewers would agree with me. God bless You Dr. more power to you.😊👍👏
Thanks master!
Thanks doctor

Thank you Dr Ekberg, I am a huge fan! Can hyperthyroidism be reversed/cured and how? Thank you so much, I am very grateful for you.

Thank you very much Dr. Ekberg for explanation of the root causes. Now, I feel confident to get the proper information to help my daughter
Thank you,Dr..
Can you kindly advice what one can do to reverse hyperthyroidism..?
Grateful for your kind response..
I grew up on the east coast of the U.S.. In my 30's we moved to the Midwest where after ten years I developed a goiter. Went to doctor, he said my blood work was good, so I live with a goiter. Took iodine for a while but it made it worse. Now I take no meds, try to eat healthy,( I love broccoli, but I stay away from soy products) and because I despise the cold I started doing the Wim Hof breathing and cold therapy. My goiter has shrunk to half it's original size now and I feel great!
Do you have hyperthyroidism?
This is the most sensible explanation of Hashimoto’s I have heard so far. Now all I have to do is figure out what to do about it. Thank you Dr. E.
This was awesome! I had a feeling the gut played a role but I didn't know it also had a role in the conversion! If you could make a video of all the things to test for that would be helpful! So can ask for more than just their typical TSH and T4. Thank you!
LaChilena09 you need free t3, free t4, and reverse t3.

Thank you so much for your explanations. You even introduce medical terms and help viewers learn about them as well as the main topic. One problem I worry about is, when I drink water from a plastic container, I can feel the plastic on the roof of my mouth! So, I think plastic is entering my body. I have heard that wrapping food in plastic and heating it can leach plastic into the food we eat. Your explanation of medical "care" is correct. Most doctors do not understand how the body works; specialists isolate one part of the body and ignore the rest. I take a synthetic thyroid medication but my skin is cracked and blistered (as if I had a bad sunburn) my hair is so dry I have to add conditioner or oil to it, I have been so tired for so long that I don't feel like doing much of anything, let alone exercise (which I know I need). When I was 8 I had a streptococcal sore throat and developed acute glomerulonephritis; after that, I fainted a lot and hit my head (anemic) and never had any Stamina. From 10 to 40 I did fairly well, but in the last 38 years I am tired all of the time and my skin and hair are dried out. Lately, I've had bladder symptoms (also bowel problems which I regulate with docusate). I try to eat fresh fruit (but can't find ripe fruit); I eat spinach, green beans, onions and cabbage, liver (but can't eat fish because of some unpleasant associated memories). I also eat beef as well as chicken, butter, eggs, half and half (to swallow pills). I used to eat a lot of sugar but only eat one kind now (mochi 18 grams each) as much as eight mochi a day. I am trying to stop sugar using your advice from another video. I take a vitamin pill each day.
Thank you very much . Very helpful. Will you please let us know , how we can increase the gut bacteria!? Thanks 🙏🏼
First I would like to say thank you, you’ve helped me so much, no only to understand the whole insulin/ cortisol issue but also how to use intermittent fasting to help change it. Recently, my TSH was tested and the doctor said it was unbelievably high ”18” of coarse he increased my medication to two tablet’s a day and I was told to try it for two months. Within 2 weeks my throat was swollen and sore. After three weeks it became painful, my thyroid was then popping out of my neck, which it had not been doing. My hair was falling out in chunks and life suddenly turned upside down. Eventually I realized it must be the medication and stopped taking it. Got retested and now was diagnosed with an overactive thyroid. Not knowing what to do and since my thyroid and surrounding glands were still swollen I refrained from the medication until my thyroid and the other glands relaxed. I then Went back to the doctor and was retested and told that my numbers are fine. BUT that I should continue to take the medication 1 3/4 pill instead of two. I didn’t agree so just waited, to try to figure out what to do but my hair was falling out so much I got scared and started the medication but just 1 1/2 instead since I was initially taking 1 1/4 of a pill. I don’t know what to do , if I was living in the US I might visit your office but these days I’m not. Yes my liver was ver bad and I had leaky gut and everything else and although it’s been a few years and I’ve seen improvements there’s still issues. Is there anything else I can do? Help!
Thanks so much for the information and it’s very educative. How do you know the supplement is working or not. Good work Dr.
Hello Dr Ekberg,could you do a video on Graves Disease/Hyperthyroidism?My endocrinologist has no idea about the mechanisms of this issue.All he wants to do these past 13 years is to give me radioactive iodine but refuses to see the importance of addressing the root cause and what can be done to combat it.I do not have the symptoms of Graves anymore but my TSH is at 0.01.I'm feeling better after all these years battling Graves thanks to repairing and rebuilding my immune and digestion systems through eating a plant based diet and supplementing with plant based nutients like spirulina,chlorella,moringa and shilajit.I've also been taking msm and raising glutathione levels.I thank you in advance.Cheers!
