Summary
Details

YOU MIGHT BE EXPERIENCING SYMPTOMS OF A SLUGGISH METABOLISM (HYPOTHYROIDISM) EVEN IF YOUR THYROID BLOOD TESTS APPEAR NORMAL:

In Test Your Thyroid Function, biochemist Benedicte Mai Lerche, MSc, PhD, addresses this critical issue by introducing a more accurate method of thyroid testing based on Dr. Ray Peat's research.

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN:

This comprehensive guide provides the tools and knowledge to assess your thyroid health and accurately detect hypothyroidism. It explains how to interpret thyroid lab results using optimal values rather than broad reference ranges. The book also teaches you how to monitor your metabolism at home by tracking pulse rate, temperature, and symptoms of low thyroid function.

KEY TOPICS:

-The role of the thyroid gland in regulating metabolism.

-How the T3 hormone controls the metabolic rate.

-Recognizing common symptoms of hypothyroidism.

-How stress impacts thyroid function.

-The anti-metabolic effects of reverse T3 (rT3).

-Issues with converting T4 to T3.

-Understanding blood tests for TSH, T4, T3, rT3, and thyroid antibodies.

-Interpreting lab results based on Dr. Ray Peat's research.

-Differences between optimal and ""normal"" values for thyroid lab tests.

-Preparing for thyroid blood tests.

-Why thyroid antibodies become elevated.

-The truth about Hashimoto's Thyroiditis.

-How Dr. Broda Barnes used temperature to diagnose hypothyroidism.

-Why Dr. Ray Peat relied on both temperature and pulse to track metabolism.

-How to use pulse and temperature to track your metabolism at home.

-And much more.

TABLES & TEMPLATES FOR TRACKING YOUR METABOLISM:

-Table comparing optimal with standard values for thyroid blood tests.

-Tables with pulse and temperature indicating healthy thyroid function.

-List of symptoms associated with hypothyroidism.

-Personal tracking templates for pulse, temperature, and symptoms.

WHO THIS BOOK IS FOR:

Test Your Thyroid Function is perfect for those who suspect their health issues are related to a sluggish metabolism (hypothyroidism) and for thyroid patients who want to track their metabolic health with confidence and precision. If you've been told your thyroid blood tests are normal but still experience symptoms of hypothyroidism, this book offers a comprehensive, straightforward guide that clears up the confusion surrounding thyroid testing. It provides crucial insights for understanding and monitoring both thyroid function and metabolic health at the cellular level.
