Help for Hypothyroidism

On September 21, 2011, In Solutions, By Wayne

Hypothyroidism is a thyroid problem caused by an underactive thyroid gland that produces insufficient amounts of thyroid hormones. This common condition affects millions of people.

Because the symptoms may be varied and difficult to define, often mimicking other conditions, many people with an underactive thyroid gland may be completely unaware of the problem.

To get a basic understanding of hypothyroidism, you need to familiarize yourself with the thyroid. The thyroid is a small gland found in the middle of the lower neck (below the larynx or Adam’s apple).

This gland manufactures thyroid hormones which enable the body to carry out a variety of very important functions. The thyroid works in conjunction with pituitary gland which produces thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH).

TSH in turn stimulates the thyroid gland to produce the thyroid hormones, T3 and T4. These thyroid hormones play a vital role in the body, influencing metabolism and all the organs in the body. They determine how fast or how slow the organs should work and how the body generates and uses energy.

When the thyroid is under-active and doesn’t produce enough of these hormones, hypothyroidism can develop. Metabolic rate and energy levels decrease and the body uses energy slower than it should.

Who Suffers from Hypothyroidism?

Underactive thyroid is a very common medical condition and statistics suggest that 1 in 50 women and 1 in 1000 men will develop symptoms of hypothyroidism. It is more common in older women and can also occur more frequently during pregnancy.

Conventional treatment usually involves the administration of synthetic or animal derived thyroid hormone replacement drugs.
Diagnosing Hypothyroidism

A blood test is needed to confirm the diagnosis of an underactive thyroid gland, but does not necessarily tell you the cause. The patient’s clinical history and results of antibody screening tests and thyroid scans can help to determine the underlying cause.

Symptoms of Hypothyroidism

The symptoms of hypothyroidism are not always easy to distinguish from other conditions, which makes a proper diagnosis very important. Some of the symptoms of underactive thyroid gland include:

* Thrush
* Allergies, e.g. Itching Eyes, Rashes, Hives
* Heart Palpitations
* Sore Breasts
* Stomach Bloating/Digestion Problems
* Nausea
* Itching Skin
* Low Sex Drive
* Skin Problems, e.g. Wrinkles & Age Spots
* Aching Joints & Muscle Soreness, e.g. Aching Legs & Backaches
* Motion Sickness
* Dry, Tangly Hair Or Hair Loss
* Fatigue & Exhaustion
* Depression
* Constipation
* Weight Gain Or Difficulty Losing Weight
* Brittle, Split Nails
* Swelling & Puffiness in the Eyes, Face, Arms and Legs
* Poor Concentration
* Menstrual Problems, e.g. Heavy and/or Infrequent Flow

Help for Hyperthyroidism

On September 21, 2011, In Solutions, By Wayne

Hyperthyroidism is often referred to as an overactive thyroid and is a disorder of the thyroid, a small gland located just below the Adam’s Apple.

This gland influences many of your bodily functions, such as physical growth and development, puberty, metabolism, organ function, fertility and body temperature. Just how well the thyroid regulates these functions depends on the production of two specific hormones, called T3 and T4.

The thyroid works in conjunction with the pituitary gland in the brain. When the level of thyroid hormones drops too low, the gland in the brain produces Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) which tells the thyroid gland to produce more hormones.

However, when the thyroid gland produces too much of these hormones, our bodies use energy faster than they should. And because the thyroid controls vital systems such as metabolism and body temperature, an overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism) will affect the body, causing a variety of related symptoms.

Diagnosing Hyperthyroidism

A sample of blood is the best screening method of testing for hyperthyroidism. Your health care professional will want to test the levels of T4 and T3 (the thyroid hormones) as well as the levels of TSH in your blood.

These blood tests will provide an accurate picture of how the thyroid is functioning. If the doctor feels further tests are necessary they may give a radioactive iodine uptake test. The type of radioactive iodine used for the test will not harm the thyroid or pose any risk. After 24 hours special equipment is then used to measure the amount of radioactivity over the thyroid gland.

Symptoms of Hyperthyroidism

Hyperthyroidism symptoms vary and may include the following:

* Impotence in Males
* Muscle Spasms, Cramps, Twitching & Tremors
* Acne
* Eye Twitch
* Headaches
* Hair Loss
* Anger, Nervousness, Mood Swings or Feeling Anxious
* Stomach Problems
* Low Sex Drive
* Body Temperature Changes
* Nausea
* Diarrhea or Experiencing more bowel movements than usual
* Itchiness
* Fatigue
* Rapid heart beat
* Difficulty breathing
* Sweating more than usual
* Hair becoming brittle
* Losing weight regardless of the amount of food you eat

Thyroid Disorders

On January 2, 2011, In Solutions, By Wayne

What is the Thyroid Gland?

The thyroid is a small endocrine gland located just below your adam’s apple and is often described visually as a butterfly having two halves or lobes.

The thyroid release hormones that influence many bodily functions, such as physical growth and development, metabolism, puberty, organ function, fertility and body temperature. These functions depend on two hormones released from the thyroid gland: tri-iodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4).

The thyroid gland can produce too much of these hormones (hyperthyroidism) or not enough (hypothyroidism). These thyroid hormones play a vital role in the body, thereby influencing all organs. They also determine how fast or how slow the organs should work and when the body systems use energy.

Diagnosing a Thyroid Disorder

A blood sample is the best screening method for any thyroid disorder. A blood analysis will help determine the levels of T4 and T3 that exist in the blood and can provide a picture of how the thyroid is functioning.

If your doctor feels further tests are necessary, they may administer a radioactive iodine uptake test. The type of radioactive iodine used for the test will not harm the thyroid or pose any risk to you. After 24 hours, special equipment is then used to measure the amount of radioactivity over the thyroid gland.

Symptoms of a Thyroid Disorder

The most common symptoms of thyroid disorders are:

* An Underactive Thyroid – Hypothyroidism
The thyroid does not produce enough hormones and many symptoms of thyroid disorder in this case are related to a slow metabolism.
* An Overactive Thyroid – Hyperthyroidism
The thyroid becomes enlarged, produces too much hormone, and the body uses energy faster than it should.

Symptoms of the above disorders include:

* fatigue
* dry, coarse skin and hair
* hair loss
* hoarse voice
* forgetfulness
* mood swings
* trouble swallowing
* weight gain or weight loss
* intolerance to temperature
* irritability/nervousness
* sleep problems
* muscle weakness/tremors
* irregular menstrual periods
* vision problems or eye irritation
* infertility

Digestion Problems

On January 1, 2011, In Solutions, By Wayne

Digestion is the process by which the body breaks down the food we eat into usable components. Our bodies use food similarly as a car engine uses gas– and this gives us the energy needed to live. When we put food into our mouths digestion has already started – because digestion means breaking food down into smaller molecules!

As we chew with our teeth, food is already broken into smaller amounts. Saliva helps to moisten the food and the tongue positions the food to move down the throat when we swallow. A tube called the esophagus then carries the food to the stomach.

This tube is lined with muscles that squeeze and push the food into the stomach. Your stomach is a sack like structure located just below the heart that makes digestive juices (acids and enzymes) that work to break down our food into a thick liquid or paste called chyme.

Although we might not think of it as such, the stomach is a muscular organ that contracts and expands in order to mix the food with digestive juices. Food usually remains in the stomach for about two hours after which it enters the small intestine.

The most important part of digestion takes place in the small intestine, because as the liquid food paste travels through the small intestine, nutrients (vitamins, minerals, proteins, carbohydrates and fats) are absorbed and whisked off through your bloodstream and travel to all your body cells and body systems to keep you healthy and growing and to replenish the immune system!

Diabetes Symptoms Treatments

On July 7, 2010, In Solutions, By Wayne

Diabetes symptoms often goes undiagnosed because many of its symptoms seem so harmless. Recent studies indicate that the early detection of diabetes symptoms and treatment can decrease the chance of developing the complications of diabetes.

Diabetes Symptoms

Type 1 Diabetes
Found throughout the pancreas, a very specialized tissue called the “Islets of Langerhans” is responsible for manufacturing and secreting hormones.

One such group is known as “beta cells”. These cells manufacture insulin according to the level of glucose found in the blood stream. Think of these beta cells as a factory: they only know how much insulin to produce when told by the “foreman” (glucose). When a person ingests food, blood sugars rise significantly, resulting in the release of a substantial amount of insulin. This insulin causes the body’s cells to use the sugar, and the level of sugar in the blood stream quickly returns to normal levels. Concurrently, these beta cells gradually reduce production of insulin until they reach an “idling state”. These beta cells constantly adjust their output, ensuring that there is precisely enough insulin to moderate blood sugar.

When a person has Type 1 diabetes, the body reacts to beta cells as if they were foreign invaders. As such, these cells (crucial to normal functioning) are destroyed. Once the beta cells are lost, the body can no longer produce insulin, and symptoms of diabetes begin to appear.

Type 1 Symptoms
* Frequent urination
* Unusual thirst
* Extreme hunger
* Unusual weight loss
* Extreme fatigue and Irritability

Type 2 Diabetes *
Type 2 diabetes is most commonly caused by an unhealthy diet and infrequent exercise. When taken together, the result is insulin resistance, a condition in which the body’s cells aren’t sensitive enough to react to insulin.

Insulin resistance is thought to be caused by a breakdown in intercellular signaling. Patients with insulin resistance have cells that don’t “hear” insulin, which means that they don’t ingest it for use. The result is elevated levels of insulin and glucose in the bloodstream.

During the developing stages of insulin resistance, the pancreas makes an attempt to compensate by producing increasing levels of insulin. Eventually, so much insulin is created that the cells once again begin to “hear” the insulin, and blood glucose is returned to a normal level. This is known as compensated insulin resistance.

Type 2 Symptoms
* Any of the type 1 symptoms
* Frequent infections
* Blurred vision
* Cuts/bruises that are slow to heal
* Tingling/numbness in the hands/feet
* Recurring skin, gum, or bladder infections
* Often people with type 2 diabetes have no symptoms
