A whole summit is coming up in March about thyroid and since many people with sensitivities to chemicals also have thyroid problems (including myself) I thought I would pass a long a couple of interesting items that have been released in advance.
First is the post 5 Toxic Skincare Ingredients You Should Avoid if you Have a Thyroid Condition. While I know most of you have already eliminated these five ingredients entirely from your personal care products by choosing natural and organic body care products , this article gives good scientific data about why we should be doing this.
Also there is an interesting post called Why Women Have More Thyroid Disorders: The Izabella Entz Safety Theory that says the thyroid gland is part of our body’s sensing pattern that scans the environment to determine what is safe and what is dangerous. When the thyroid gland senses danger, it can actually initiate an autoimmune response.
This begs the question: Are our thyroid glands sensing the danger of toxics in our environment and causing our bodies to respond?
The upcoming summit will have more than 100 presenters talking about cutting edge cures for thyroid disease. If you want to know more, visit http://thethyroidsecret.com
Between my environmental controls, diet, and taking Armour thyroid supplement, I’ve pretty much got my thyroid condition under control. But I’d like to not be dependent on taking the supplement. So I’m going to keep an eye on the summit and see what the latest is.
