Do you know what’s the difference; Hypothyroidism
vs. Hyperthyroidism?
(Credit: article from everyday Health)
The butterfly-shaped thyroid gland in the front of your neck acts as the
control center for your body.
Hormones secreted by the thyroid help maintain the brain, heart,
muscles, and other organs, and help the body to use energy properly.
It;s time to check yourself your thyroid gland. If you're in doubt, please go see a doctor and get a full medical check up.
So when something goes awry that leads to under active
thyroid or overactive thyroid, your metabolism either revs up too high or slows
way down. These two conditions — hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism — affect
the thyroid in different ways and therefore have distinct symptoms.
“The major difference between hypothyroidism and
hyperthyroidism is the thyroid’s hormone output,” says Minisha A. Sood, MD, an
endocrinologist at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City.
In simple terms, with hypothyroidism, or under active
thyroid, the thyroid gland doesn’t make enough thyroid hormone for the body’s
needs. With hyperthyroidism, or overactive thyroid, the thyroid makes too much,
explains Dr. Sood.
The most common cause of hypothyroidism
is an autoimmune disease called Hashimoto’s disease, a
condition where the immune system makes antibodies that destroy thyroid cells
and stop them from making the thyroid hormone.
The most common form of hyperthyroidism is a
condition called Grave’s disease. Some people with Grave’s
disease have swelling in the front of their neck from an enlarged thyroid
gland, called a goiter, as well as eyes that appear enlarged due to
inflammation.
As a result
of an under active thyroid (hypothyroidism,
Hashimoto’s disease) you may
experience:
- Fatigue
- Forgetfulness
- Dry skin
- Dry hair
- Brittle nails
- Constipation
- Weight gain
- Muscle cramps
- Depression
- Decreased menstrual flow
- Swelling in the front of the neck (goiter)
- Feeling hot
- Sweating
- Problems falling asleep (insomnia)
- Racing thoughts
- Difficulty focusing on one task
- Forgetfulness
- Change in bowel habits, where bowels are looser
- Elevated heart rate and palpitation
- Anxiety, nervousness, or irritability
- Weight loss
- Menstrual problems
- Fatigue
The first step in natural treatment of hypothyroidism and
hyperthyroidism is to eliminate the causes of thyroid dysfunction, such as
inflammation, overuse of medications, nutrient deficiencies and changes in
hormones due to stress. The hypothyroidism/ hyperthyroidism diet eliminates
foods that can cause inflammation and immune reactions and instead focuses on
foods that help heal the GI tract, balance hormones and reduce inflammation.
