No matter what medication you take, or how much T4 your thyroid gland produces, it doesn’t matter if the cells aren’t taking up the thyroid hormone. In other words, you can take (or make) thyroid hormone, but if you have cellular resistance, or some issue that prevents your cells from taking it up, you are still going to be hypothyroid and experience symptoms of the condition.
Symptoms vary but may include hair loss, fatigue, heart palpitations, anxiety, feeling cold, frequent infections, infertility, weakness, shortness of breath, problems with PMS and much more.
Many factors influence this cellular uptake. Today’s ARTICLE will help you understand why you might be taking medicine, but it’s not working well. If you don’t fix the problems mentioned in my article, you’ll never fully uptake the thyroid hormone like you should.
Some factors that impact the cell membrane, and therefore impact the amount of thyroid hormone you absorb are your levels of zinc, iron, reverse T3 and more.
