Tools for a Healthy Thyroid Workshop

If you are living with a thyroid disorder such as Hashimoto’s, or another autoimmune disorder, then you will know there can be a frustrating number of symptoms that can come and go without warning. These symptoms range from weight gain, hair loss, chronic fatigue, depression, to joint and muscle pain and brain fog.

Unfortunately, conventional medical treatment may do little to address the progression of the disease – dealing primarily with the symptoms and not the root causes. The root causes of Hashimoto's (and other autoimmune disorders) are highly individual and can involve genetic background, issues with the gut lining, and a number of environmental triggers ranging from gut bacterial imbalance, nutritional deficiency, toxins, parasites, stress, food sensitivities, etc. It's easy to see that no 'one-size-fits-all' remedy will work for everyone.

So what can you do?

There are a number of tools available that can help identify the root causes. In this 3 hour workshop, you will hear from three different practitioners who will outline some of the tools that they use to address root causes.

You will learn:
- some simple tools that you can easily implement to help you identify triggers
- what you need to know about blood tests
- what you need to know about functional testing (Comprehensive Stool Analysis, Organic Acid Tests, Food Sensitivity tests, and more)
- how better breathing techniques can help with sleep and improved energy levels
- what you need to know about DNA testing and how it can affect your biochemistry and nutritional requirements
- about the key genes that can be targeted to improve the health and diet of people with thyroid issues
