If Dr. Kharrazian hasn't filmed the brain inflammation video yet, and you are able to, would you pass this request to him please? I have Hashimoto's, and some mornings I wake up feeling like my brain is on fire, but my body is not overheated. I also have only a slight headache, most of the discomfort is from the hot feeling, and the sensation of heat in my head hangs on for the first 60-90 minutes after I wake up. Tissue inflammation causes the area around it to feel hot from the swelling, so I'm now really wondering if that's the same kind of inflammation he's talking about - the sort that can cause heat and tenderness? It might seem like a silly question, "inflammation is inflammation" but I also know much can happen in the brain (including surgery!) and it's not felt at all, and the symptoms he described were more emotional/mental instead of physical. So I hope he will address the physical aspect as well.
What a freakin' sellout I mean, seriously? They're going into business with a con artist chiropractor seling his snake oil and horseshit and trashing their credibility? Really?

I'm sitting here crying because finally someone understands my illness. I've had Hashimoto's for almost 30 years but was only treated for hypothyroidism. Struggled off and on with all of the different symptoms described. I would tell my doctor that I'm a glass half full person yet I was struggling with depression and that I felt it was physically caused. It didn't matter they just throw the same antidepressants at you which never really worked. Thirty years later my body has activated Crohn's disease and it's made me so sick for the last year and a half. The last couple of months I've been so sick that I can hardly eat and have daily fevers. The medical establishment only treats the immediate symptoms and with poison that causes others problems. Thank you for sharing this information, I hope Dr. Kharrazian has something to help me and it's not too late!
I only briefly looked at his book reviewers but one mentioned a conflict of interest in that he makes a profit off of the supplements that his book recommends and that they’re very expensive. No matter how desperate you are, don’t get scammed into paying thousands for a “maybe”. Information on how to go gluten free or other exclusion diets can be found for free online in really accessible formats, from blog posts to video series on CZcams, you don’t need to pay anyone! The other exclusion diet that I’ve heard a lot of success stories with is the carnivore diet, while I still need to finish trying a 100% gluten-free diet, that would definitely be my next go to if I still had symptoms. I’ve started to greatly value patient stories where they share everything that worked for them (and don’t ask for money in return) over “experts” who have financial gains to make from you. As much a big pharma and mainstream medicine can be exploitative, don’t be fooled into thinking non-mainstream medical practitioners and treatments are any less exploitative! They’re still all profiting from your suffering, no nice speech about how they’re “different” changes that your suffering is what their business models are built around to profit on, they’re not a more moral/ethical person even tho they try to market themselves as that a lot of the time. This guy would be making big money just from book sales alone, so don’t mistake the creation of books like these to be good people trying to do a good thing from the kindness of their heart. I don’t begrudge anyone making profit, just when someone obfuscates that motivation and tries to pretend helping you is their ONLY motivation “unlike all those OTHER doctors” it’s a very dishonest approach that should be viewed as a red flag. In general watch out for explicitly emotional marketing methods, one’s where they try to emotionally validate you by describing your lived experience with excessive sympathy before even explaining their solution or how much it costs, they’re attempting to make you trust them more for this “understanding” they have, rather than marketing the merit of their treatment with actual statistics from studies/trials and not just anecdotes from “patients” that they don’t provide anything to even prove are real people. Look for real people online on third party websites (as reviewers on a person’s website can be fake) who can vouch for a treatment method, especially if it’s one that requires a lot of money to access. You’re already suffering enough from being sick, the last thing you want is to be suffering from sinking thousands into a treatment with no proof it’s made anyone better. For this guys book all the positive Amazon reviews were by people who were excited to try it out, not people who said they had tried it and their symptoms were in remission. Big difference, so please do your research first! I see so many people in these comment sections who are truly desperate to get better and I hate the idea of anyone getting exploited at their most vulnerable like this, many of us probably all already have stories of paying for treatments that went nowhere, but many people don’t have the spare funds to make a no-return investment of that kind, so caution is very much needed before parting with your money. Good luck getting well everyone, hope all of us find that perfect cure for ourselves one day! 🙏✨

I have been so frustrated with the medical establishment. After 20 years of dealing with Hashi’s and RA, I’ve tried so many diets, cleanses, supplements, etc. I do take Armour Thyroid, and I also take LDN…which doesn’t do much. The rest is through diet and hydration. But…it’s a hard battle done daily, and I want my life back. I’m tired of my body being my daily focus forever. There’s reason for depression…my world has gotten very small, and that’s not how I want to be. I am grateful for my dear friends and my love-partner…they get me through.
I have been struggling with autoimmune thyroid issues since my mid 30's. I'm 60 and still frustrated. I feel hope for the first time. Thank You Bob and Brad for bringing Dr. Kharrazian on your show. I bought two courses and am hoping they help me to change my life.
Hypothyroid popped up alongside symptoms of gluten allergy, for me. Avoiding all gluten made a big difference, for me. Definitely a connection between gluten sensitivity and depression/anxiety. Intermittent fasting can also help. Going gluten free is important, as well. Make sure to purchase only CERTIFIED gluten free products because a small amount of gluten is allowable for the product to be labeled gluten free.
What can I do about my disease? I have high antibodies and I’m 28 year single guy. Very depressed and worried about future and if I ever get married or have kids
@@bekabeka71 Are you asking about Hashimotos disease? I have been told that that is what I have, as well. Like the doctor said, each person is individual but start with eliminating gluten. Keep a food diary to make sure there aren't other food allergies happening, as well. I've read that dairy and gluten sensitivity can go hand in hand. If you have depression, work with your doctor but do your due diligence in taking control of your health by changing your diet and exercise routine, a bit. I've also suffered from anxiety and depression and believe it is all connected. One thing at a time.. small steps.. a little each day. You'll get there, I promise. God bless.
I have found eating Carnivore/Keto/Low Carb healthy has helped me immensely with Hashimoto’s. I actually lost 150lbs over 2 years, and have kept it off another 2 years. I went from 321lbs to 170lbs. I’m a non-smoking, non-drinking 61 year old male.
I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s (officially) after I had my thyroid removed due to cancer. My symptoms have been insane, and my endocrinologist has been less than helpful-my levels aren’t where they should be (which she said) but she won’t change my dose either. It’s been miserable-I’m in constant pain! I can’t wait to learn more and see what I can do for myself!
@@janisi9262 I’ve been in touch with my regular doctor-who is amazing-about finding someone else. I’ve finally stopped the thought process that I should just be patient and see what happens. Nothing changes, and it’s not like someone else is going to advocate for me!!
Such expertise! Mom was on hormones with a thyroid problem, doc severely over medicated her, she felt very agitated but would never question her doctor, mistake!
Thank you for this. Been suffering with Hashimotos for nearly my entire life. My brother also has it, he was diagnosed in highschool. I’m 27 now and was just diagnose about a year ago. I also have comorbidities and autoimmune symptoms like PCOS, arthritis, IBS, etc. I’ve been told to lose weight my entire life but experience incredibly turbulent shifts in basal metabolic rate. I’m currently under psychiatric treatment for cPTSD and ADHD. I’m not prediabetic (yet) but experience insulin resistance symptoms.
As a guy with Hashimotos I’ve been dealing with it since I was around 10-12. The doctors thought I was depressed and I had gained and lost weight dramatically for years. 35 now and because it wasn’t helped or taken care of it has led to severe mental health disorders. I’m on 8 medications, some for hashimotos and others are for mental health. The worst part is trying to find a doctor who understands what I’m dealing with. Everything he said is true, endocrinologist states yup you got hypothyroidism here’s some synthroid.
See a naturopath also folks!! They WILL help heal you, they healed me with supplements and change of diet. Great vid B and B btw. This should be discussed a lot more often. thank you.
I’m 75 and I’ve been waiting 60 years for a doctor like you to come along. I am certain I had hashimotos disease when I was very young. Once I went away to college I developed severe anemia then Graves’ disease. (A total reversal) I had the first thyroid lobe removed before I had my children. Then as predicted by my doctor, ten years later I had the second lobe removed. I discovered by paying attention that B12 somehow was involved due to going on a plant based diet in 2014. I could not believe how much my health improved by the diet and B12 supplements but the most interesting thing is that I required less and less hormone supplements (synthroid). My doctor is now trying to find out why. I went from 150 mcg to 77 mcg in a couple of years time. He thought it might be biotene in my vitamin supplement but it isn’t in the ingredients. Thank you, Dr. Kharrazian. Please keep up the good work. This area of medicine has been neglected for far too long. I will tell my doctor about your books.
Umm...he's not a medical doctor, he's a con artist who preys on people who blame medical doctors for their illnesses. He's a charlatan A faith healer. Shame on this site.
I really appreciate real talk about HD. I've been treated for this for years, but it just feels like coasting instead of treating or understanding what's going on. Tinnitus also is a side effect of my meds.
Good overview. It looks as though I've been doing mostly right things, but I'd like to know more. Diagnosed with hypothyroidism 40-some years ago, and my doctor checks TSH and nothing else. I still have symptoms, even though my TSH is perfect.
My husband was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s years ago med ranging from 100 to 300 and he did well. We move to COLORADO new doctor tested and said he didn’t have Hashimoto’s just hyperthyroidism and changed his med to 175 and ever sense he has been getting sicker and sicker 5 years now. He went to a allergy doctor for chronic itching and the test peroxidase was 289 and thyroglobulin 1000. So now we’re back to new endocrinologists so more meds maybe. But we took gluten out of his diet and as much sugar as we can find even most fruit it takes time to change and see a difference but I am hopeful.
I was also told I had this, after taking thyroid medicine for about a year and a half. I ended up in the hospital with my thyroid number in the 40's. I was also battling a gluten allergy which I had not recognized yet. First step, remove all gluten.. it works against the thyroid. Also, avoid antacids and other medications that interfere with the thyroid medicine. Prayers for your daughters recovery and stabilization of her thyroid. Btw.. I had to diagnose my gluten allergy, after keeping a careful food diary. Took about 4 years. Incorrectly diagnosed and treated for shingles, over and over. Intermittent fasting can also help.
Also, when going gluten free, be sure to choose only CERTIFIED gluten free products. A small amount of gluten is allowed for goods to be labeled gluten free. Try not to get overwhelmed. It is doable. Healing and normal life is attainable. Find what works.. get rid of what doesn't. Gluten really isn't healthy for any of us, anyway. Again, best wishes.
I am so freaking annoyed right now. I cannot belive this BS. I have spent the last 6 months going through the testing from hell (including 2 MRIs and I'm seriously claustrophobic!) for dizziness and vertigo that left me incapacitated for 2 weeks last winter. They have me seeing a neurologist and an audiologist, neither of whom can explain what's happening with the verigo and dizziness, by the way. In addition I have developed leaky gut (they diagnosed from food sensitivities that popped out of nowhere), anemia, and vitamin deficiencies, all within the last YEAR. I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's 9 years ago and they are treating all of these things as individual health complaints. Unbelievable. So glad I stumbled across this, maybe there's some hope and relief from the weirdness that has become my body and my life the last few years.
The guest speaker needed a better mic. Funny, I worked in a hospital transfer center, and listened to thousand of phone conversations between doctors; I can't even enumerate the number of times clinicians had to ask for a repeat on labs or narrative due to cadence, slurring of words - especially medical terminology and drug names - or volume changes like starting a sentence at good volume then tapering off and mumbling the last remarks as the clinician finished their thought. Like those conversations, I found myself often going back to Listen again as the volume and cadence sometimes made it difficult to catch what the guest had said.
My son's girlfriend, mom and siblings are gluten/lactose intolerant. She's a nurse and incredibly healthy, I worry their offsprings might be affected but she's too amazing to really care! 💘
Oops funeral underway, oops I knew that! Well youngest Louis not there, boy my kids didn't miss their gmaw's funeral! My sport's backpack 🎒, its velcro undercoating stuck to and brought up limo's carpet I was tried to leave, of course it did 😣!
This was a very informative video..thanks DrK.. I was diagnosed with this about 10 years ago.. Have had diabetes 38 years. Did not know this was an autoimmune disease that could cause physical pain in joints. I have been having a lot of joint pain lately. The thyroid numbers are good.. with the synthroid med.. generic does not work as well. Although I wish more doctors would test people for this type of disease.
I've had a frustrating experience with doctors about this, but man I guess it's mild compared to what others went through. I didn't even ask for a hashimotos test and my regular doctors one day said "hey we're gonna test you cuz your blood levels are weird" and lo and behold I had it. An endocrinologist said I needed meds, but when I was on levothyroxine it just made all my symptoms 1000 times worse so I haven't been on those meds in years. I've been gluten and dairy free for over a year and that has done wonders for my weight and ability to function normally, and aside from that stress is the number 1 thing that will make everything come back and my immune system unable to regulate me not getting colds. Sleep, making sure I enjoy each day, hobbies, I have to do it or I'll get sick asap. this year however has been hard since due to certain circumstances my schedule doesn't allow me to get enough sleep 4 days out of the week and it's slowly making me sicker and sicker. Circumstances should change in a few months and I cannot wait for that, but any advice on what to do to boost the immune system when it doesn't get enough sleep would be AMAZING
@@georgettesturgill4219 haven't tried zinc, K2, B1, and magnesium. I'll have to try that! Whenever i can feel I'm gonna get sick I would take emergen c, which would always almost completely eradicate the incoming cold, but lately it's barely done a thing since I haven't gotten the sleep I need so I know my immune system is not nearly as functional as it normally is. Thanks for you recommendation!
@@tacticalcenter8658 I do follow Eric Berg he is a great speaker and Ciropractor so more natural so is Dr. Livingood I am part of that group. The both are about vitamins and clean eating. Dr. Livingood doesn’t follow just keto diet he makes it easy for all to swap out stuff mostly. Dr Eric Berg is more healthy Keto which I am doing with my husband and gluten free.
Oh my goodness. I’m 73. I was diagnosed with hashimotos 40 years ago. I have experienced a lot of what you are talking about. I have been told I’m an attention seeker because I would react so differently than other people to medication and chemicals and on and on. I am currently on 300 mcg of levothyroxine. I haven’t read your book yet, but I am ordering it. I would love the online course but can’t afford that. But 4 1/2 months ago I did eliminate carbs in my diet (down to 20 carbs a day). I don’t feel any better but I have lost some weight. I’m hoping your book will give me more insight into this disease.
My endocrinologist did test me for the thyroid antibodies. My test came back positive. So she diagnosed me with Hashimotos. The biggest challenges for me are the brain fog, the extreme fatigue and joint pain. I get frustrated with not feeling well. Unfortunately for me, on top of the Hashimotos, I also have central hypothyroidism due to a macroadenoma that pretty much left my pituitary non functional. (Due to the pituitary tumor, I also have secondary adrenal insufficiency and very negligible HGH). ALOT of my frustration comes from not feeling well. But, because so many things are wrong with my health, I don't know what causes all my miserable symptoms...is it the Hashimotos? Is it the central hypothyroidism? Is it the secondary adrenal insufficiency or the HGH depletion? Or what combination of all the above is making me feel so "off" and unwell? I try to tell my endocrinologist that I don't feel well. Something doesn't feel right inside. I just don't feel right inside. But, all she says is "well, all your monitored hormone test numbers are within normal range." It is very discouraging to hear that, when I know that I don't feel right inside. I just come to the conclusion that I will never feel right inside ever again. I feel so unwell inside that I know something isn't right. But, I don't know how to ever pinpoint what it is so that it could possibly be treated and corrected. This may sound melodramatic, but it is the truth, that this overall unwell sensation that I feel inside sometimes makes me feel like I am halfway between life and death. That's the feeling that this overall unwellness gives me. It's not constant. Sometimes I feel better than at other times. But, when this feeling of unwellness inside comes over me it really makes me feel halfway between life and death. It's miserable! Maybe someday I can find some answers. But, this video was very interesting to listen to. And maybe, anyone else with any of my issues can give me some feedback on on how they feel and how they cope with their illnesses, including Hashimotos.
I've had that not sick but not well, neither alive nor dead feeling most of the last 40+ years. I tried different things (found on my own-no help from doctors) and finally found a combination that lets me feel good much of the time. I eat a DASH - Mediterranean (sort of) diet, little to no dairy and gluten; drink lots - almost a half gallon - of water a day; go to bed very early; do some deliberate exercise every day; and work with a personal trainer once a week. I also convinced my doc to prescribe natural thyroid instead of levothyroxin. I actually have some pain-free days now!
When treating the thyroid with meds good doctors try to keep hypothyroid patients numbers LOWER than normal. Not in the normal range BUT LOWER than normal. A lot of hypothyroid patients do not feel well until this occurs. You also have many layers of hypothyroid. So of course it’s possible for it to take more attention and tweaking in all areas to be addressed for you to feel even close to normal. You’re also not making proper responsive cortisol to respond to stress and situations that can stress your body/mind. THAT will also make you feel unwell. So it’s totally understandable. Also, thyroid symptoms, function can wax and wane so that also can explain why you may feel almost normal for a touch and then go back to feeling unwell, not normal. I hope your Docs are addressing ALL your endocrine health issues in tandem. If not try to get better ones.
I was diagnosed with graves had the radiation done to stop how hi it was working. Since then I had like 10 years of problems from the synthetic medicine. I wasn't making T3 so my endocrinologist got me the meds derived from pigs and I stopped having all the issues I was having. Started to feel normal again.
I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s about 15 years ago. Had my thyroid function checked about every 4 months initially. It took some years but my function is at steady state on levothyroxine and I feel well.
I have Hashimoto's and have a solid nodule on my left lobe. They have been giving me yearly ultra sounds on it. This last time, the nodule enlarged and changed shape. So, they did a biopsy on the nodule and found papillary carcinoma. So, I have a total thyroidectomy scheduled in a few days.
I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism in my early 30's and then shortly after developed lactose intolerance. I wasn't told I had hoshimotos until probably 10 years later.
When my doctor finally got frustrated enough with my complaints, she referred me to an endocrinologist. After 3 months of waiting for an appointment, I was hopeful. He asked me some questions, did a quick exam and said he was sorry but nothing was wrong with my thyroid. He had looked at the blood work (TSH and T4) my Dr had done 3 months earlier and it was within range. I asked about other tests…T3, rev T3. He said if I wanted to do the T3, he would go along but there is nothing there. I asked about an antibody test and he said since I had Graves’ disease 20 yrs ago, I would test with antibodies and that would be meaningless. So I said, well, don’t bother. I went home and ordered my own comprehensive panel and sure enough, my antibodies are at 330. While all other tests are in range, I’m learning that most are not even borderline optimal. So I’m trying to find a dr who can help me. I’ve been keto for 18 months and I think that’s the only thing that is helping since I’ve had no gluten whatsoever and I’m eating 100% whole food. I even make my own mayo in order to avoid all soy.
Ya I've made mayo myself in the past, it kinda split up though, hope you're having better luck, I now avoid it entirely, hubby's bud said try "Fry your grilled cheese on it (yuck), didn't same bud tell him about new best and improved Chinese food....

The last and worst being Trimethropine which landed me in hospital for five weeks with meningo- encephalitis. Having recently been given vaccines against various meningeal bugs, I as told it was because I may have a compromised spleen and no doctor has been able to explain
I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism 32 years ago. I've already had 1/2 of my thyroid removed, & for last 8 years, I've had a huge 'lump' growing on other side of neck where half thyroid was removed. Sometimes my voice gets all screwed up. Making an appointment to see how large it is using ultrasound. Sick of this entire 'issue'. As usual, men are so fortunate..... us women take on 90% of thyroid issues and problems. In my lifetime, 50+years, I've only met one man who had thyroid problems, & he continued to lose weight.
Just because you haven't met them doesn't mean they don't exist. I'm a guy with a thyroid that doesn't work like it should. So I take levothyroxine daily and have my thyroid levels checked every three months along with the other lab work I have checked every three months because of all the other medical issues I have. I don't know what the big deal is. It sucks. That's life. This chiropractor is a lowlife predator who preys on people searching for miracles.
I was diagnosed at 11 and was given some thyroid meds which turned on my menstrual cycle. All these years later started taking synthetic thyroid but stopped since I became allergic after a few doses. I also got oral lichen planus in mouth and vaginal area. This all happened in 2015 when I reached menopause. I started taking extra vit d and natural thyroid. Still not perfect but I could tell a difference with the vit d. 6000 ius a day or more and when I get a blood test my vit d levels are mid range.

I can appreciate that you must greatly admire Dr. Kharrazian and wish to show respect, so please put your mind at ease that it's certainly not disrespectful to use "Dr." when referring to him in writing, and it certainly does not belittle the title.
I'm sitting here crying because finally someone understands my illness. I've had Hashimoto's for almost 30 years but was only treated for hypothyroidism. Struggled off and on with all of the different symptoms described. I would tell my doctor that I'm a glass half full person yet I was struggling with depression and that I felt it was physically caused. It didn't matter they just throw the same antidepressants at you which never really worked. Thirty years later my body has activated Crohn's disease and it's made me so sick for the last year and a half. The last couple of months I've been so sick that I can hardly eat and have daily fevers. The medical establishment only treats the immediate symptoms and with poison that causes others problems. Thank you for sharing this information, I hope Dr. Kharrazian has something to help me and it's not too late!
I only briefly looked at his book reviewers but one mentioned a conflict of interest in that he makes a profit off of the supplements that his book recommends and that they’re very expensive.
No matter how desperate you are, don’t get scammed into paying thousands for a “maybe”. Information on how to go gluten free or other exclusion diets can be found for free online in really accessible formats, from blog posts to video series on CZcams, you don’t need to pay anyone!
The other exclusion diet that I’ve heard a lot of success stories with is the carnivore diet, while I still need to finish trying a 100% gluten-free diet, that would definitely be my next go to if I still had symptoms.
I’ve started to greatly value patient stories where they share everything that worked for them (and don’t ask for money in return) over “experts” who have financial gains to make from you.
As much a big pharma and mainstream medicine can be exploitative, don’t be fooled into thinking non-mainstream medical practitioners and treatments are any less exploitative! They’re still all profiting from your suffering, no nice speech about how they’re “different” changes that your suffering is what their business models are built around to profit on, they’re not a more moral/ethical person even tho they try to market themselves as that a lot of the time. This guy would be making big money just from book sales alone, so don’t mistake the creation of books like these to be good people trying to do a good thing from the kindness of their heart.
I don’t begrudge anyone making profit, just when someone obfuscates that motivation and tries to pretend helping you is their ONLY motivation “unlike all those OTHER doctors” it’s a very dishonest approach that should be viewed as a red flag.
In general watch out for explicitly emotional marketing methods, one’s where they try to emotionally validate you by describing your lived experience with excessive sympathy before even explaining their solution or how much it costs, they’re attempting to make you trust them more for this “understanding” they have, rather than marketing the merit of their treatment with actual statistics from studies/trials and not just anecdotes from “patients” that they don’t provide anything to even prove are real people.
Look for real people online on third party websites (as reviewers on a person’s website can be fake) who can vouch for a treatment method, especially if it’s one that requires a lot of money to access. You’re already suffering enough from being sick, the last thing you want is to be suffering from sinking thousands into a treatment with no proof it’s made anyone better. For this guys book all the positive Amazon reviews were by people who were excited to try it out, not people who said they had tried it and their symptoms were in remission. Big difference, so please do your research first!
I see so many people in these comment sections who are truly desperate to get better and I hate the idea of anyone getting exploited at their most vulnerable like this, many of us probably all already have stories of paying for treatments that went nowhere, but many people don’t have the spare funds to make a no-return investment of that kind, so caution is very much needed before parting with your money.
Good luck getting well everyone, hope all of us find that perfect cure for ourselves one day! 🙏✨
It's just so very well written 😭😭😭😭

I have been so frustrated with the medical establishment. After 20 years of dealing with Hashi’s and RA, I’ve tried so many diets, cleanses, supplements, etc. I do take Armour Thyroid, and I also take LDN…which doesn’t do much. The rest is through diet and hydration. But…it’s a hard battle done daily, and I want my life back. I’m tired of my body being my daily focus forever. There’s reason for depression…my world has gotten very small, and that’s not how I want to be. I am grateful for my dear friends and my love-partner…they get me through.
I have been struggling with autoimmune thyroid issues since my mid 30's. I'm 60 and still frustrated. I feel hope for the first time. Thank You Bob and Brad for bringing Dr. Kharrazian on your show. I bought two courses and am hoping they help me to change my life.
@Kelley McFadden No, I have not. Thanks, I will check it out!
Hi. How are you doing a year later? Have you found relief? Did you watch any more of Dr. Kharrazian?
Hypothyroid popped up alongside symptoms of gluten allergy, for me.
Avoiding all gluten made a big difference, for me.
Definitely a connection between gluten sensitivity and depression/anxiety.
Intermittent fasting can also help. Going gluten free is important, as well. Make sure to purchase only CERTIFIED gluten free products because a small amount of gluten is allowable for the product to be labeled gluten free.
What can I do about my disease? I have high antibodies and I’m 28 year single guy. Very depressed and worried about future and if I ever get married or have kids
@@bekabeka71 Are you asking about Hashimotos disease?
I have been told that that is what I have, as well. Like the doctor said, each person is individual but start with eliminating gluten. Keep a food diary to make sure there aren't other food allergies happening, as well. I've read that dairy and gluten sensitivity can go hand in hand. If you have depression, work with your doctor but do your due diligence in taking control of your health by changing your diet and exercise routine, a bit.
I've also suffered from anxiety and depression and believe it is all connected.
One thing at a time.. small steps.. a little each day.
You'll get there, I promise.
God bless.
@@bekabeka71 Please stay in touch and share your progress. And no more worrying. It will all be ok.
Enjoy your youth, Son.
I have found eating Carnivore/Keto/Low Carb healthy has helped me immensely with Hashimoto’s. I actually lost 150lbs over 2 years, and have kept it off another 2 years. I went from 321lbs to 170lbs. I’m a non-smoking, non-drinking 61 year old male.
I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s (officially) after I had my thyroid removed due to cancer. My symptoms have been insane, and my endocrinologist has been less than helpful-my levels aren’t where they should be (which she said) but she won’t change my dose either. It’s been miserable-I’m in constant pain! I can’t wait to learn more and see what I can do for myself!

Holy hell. You should try confronting her directly about it, and if you can't get her to treat you properly, find another doctor.
@@janisi9262 I’ve been in touch with my regular doctor-who is amazing-about finding someone else. I’ve finally stopped the thought process that I should just be patient and see what happens. Nothing changes, and it’s not like someone else is going to advocate for me!!
Such expertise! Mom was on hormones with a thyroid problem, doc severely over medicated her, she felt very agitated but would never question her doctor, mistake!
Thank you for this. Been suffering with Hashimotos for nearly my entire life. My brother also has it, he was diagnosed in highschool. I’m 27 now and was just diagnose about a year ago. I also have comorbidities and autoimmune symptoms like PCOS, arthritis, IBS, etc. I’ve been told to lose weight my entire life but experience incredibly turbulent shifts in basal metabolic rate. I’m currently under psychiatric treatment for cPTSD and ADHD. I’m not prediabetic (yet) but experience insulin resistance symptoms.
As a guy with Hashimotos I’ve been dealing with it since I was around 10-12. The doctors thought I was depressed and I had gained and lost weight dramatically for years. 35 now and because it wasn’t helped or taken care of it has led to severe mental health disorders. I’m on 8 medications, some for hashimotos and others are for mental health. The worst part is trying to find a doctor who understands what I’m dealing with. Everything he said is true, endocrinologist states yup you got hypothyroidism here’s some synthroid.
Go see a naturopath. THEY healed me naturally.. No regrets at all.
Don't blame medical doctors for your illnesses.
See a naturopath also folks!! They WILL help heal you, they healed me with supplements and change of diet. Great vid B and B btw. This should be discussed a lot more often. thank you.
I’m 75 and I’ve been waiting 60 years for a doctor like you to come along. I am certain I had hashimotos disease when I was very young. Once I went away to college I developed severe anemia then Graves’ disease. (A total reversal) I had the first thyroid lobe removed before I had my children. Then as predicted by my doctor, ten years later I had the second lobe removed. I discovered by paying attention that B12 somehow was involved due to going on a plant based diet in 2014. I could not believe how much my health improved by the diet and B12 supplements but the most interesting thing is that I required less and less hormone supplements (synthroid). My doctor is now trying to find out why. I went from 150 mcg to 77 mcg in a couple of years time. He thought it might be biotene in my vitamin supplement but it isn’t in the ingredients.
Thank you, Dr. Kharrazian. Please keep up the good work. This area of medicine has been neglected for far too long. I will tell my doctor about your books.
Umm...he's not a medical doctor, he's a con artist who preys on people who blame medical doctors for their illnesses. He's a charlatan A faith healer. Shame on this site.
I really appreciate real talk about HD. I've been treated for this for years, but it just feels like coasting instead of treating or understanding what's going on. Tinnitus also is a side effect of my meds.
Good overview. It looks as though I've been doing mostly right things, but I'd like to know more. Diagnosed with hypothyroidism 40-some years ago, and my doctor checks TSH and nothing else. I still have symptoms, even though my TSH is perfect.
need to check t3 and t4
My husband was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s years ago med ranging from 100 to 300 and he did well. We move to COLORADO new doctor tested and said he didn’t have Hashimoto’s just hyperthyroidism and changed his med to 175 and ever sense he has been getting sicker and sicker 5 years now. He went to a allergy doctor for chronic itching and the test peroxidase was 289 and thyroglobulin 1000. So now we’re back to new endocrinologists so more meds maybe. But we took gluten out of his diet and as much sugar as we can find even most fruit it takes time to change and see a difference but I am hopeful.
My daughter was 12 when she was diagnosed with hashimoto's disease. She is now 15 and is having all kinds of issues. Doctors lend no help.
Shelly try to find a functional medicine doctor they can help
I was also told I had this, after taking thyroid medicine for about a year and a half. I ended up in the hospital with my thyroid number in the 40's. I was also battling a gluten allergy which I had not recognized yet.
First step, remove all gluten.. it works against the thyroid. Also, avoid antacids and other medications that interfere with the thyroid medicine.
Prayers for your daughters recovery and stabilization of her thyroid.
Btw.. I had to diagnose my gluten allergy, after keeping a careful food diary. Took about 4 years. Incorrectly diagnosed and treated for shingles, over and over.
Intermittent fasting can also help.
Also, when going gluten free, be sure to choose only CERTIFIED gluten free products. A small amount of gluten is allowed for goods to be labeled gluten free.
Try not to get overwhelmed. It is doable. Healing and normal life is attainable.
Find what works.. get rid of what doesn't.
Gluten really isn't healthy for any of us, anyway.
Again, best wishes.
Give her chlorine dioxide aka Mms!! You're welcome😆
she needs an endocrinologist
I am so freaking annoyed right now. I cannot belive this BS. I have spent the last 6 months going through the testing from hell (including 2 MRIs and I'm seriously claustrophobic!) for dizziness and vertigo that left me incapacitated for 2 weeks last winter. They have me seeing a neurologist and an audiologist, neither of whom can explain what's happening with the verigo and dizziness, by the way. In addition I have developed leaky gut (they diagnosed from food sensitivities that popped out of nowhere), anemia, and vitamin deficiencies, all within the last YEAR. I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's 9 years ago and they are treating all of these things as individual health complaints. Unbelievable. So glad I stumbled across this, maybe there's some hope and relief from the weirdness that has become my body and my life the last few years.
The guest speaker needed a better mic. Funny, I worked in a hospital transfer center, and listened to thousand of phone conversations between doctors; I can't even enumerate the number of times clinicians had to ask for a repeat on labs or narrative due to cadence, slurring of words - especially medical terminology and drug names - or volume changes like starting a sentence at good volume then tapering off and mumbling the last remarks as the clinician finished their thought. Like those conversations, I found myself often going back to
Listen again as the volume and cadence sometimes made it difficult to catch what the guest had said.
My son's girlfriend, mom and siblings are gluten/lactose intolerant. She's a nurse and incredibly healthy, I worry their offsprings might be affected but she's too amazing to really care! 💘

I’m not following you.
This was a very informative video..thanks DrK.. I was diagnosed with this about 10 years ago.. Have had diabetes 38 years. Did not know this was an autoimmune disease that could cause physical pain in joints. I have been having a lot of joint pain lately. The thyroid numbers are good.. with the synthroid med.. generic does not work as well. Although I wish more doctors would test people for this type of disease.
Before being diagnosed,I’ve never heard of it.
I've had a frustrating experience with doctors about this, but man I guess it's mild compared to what others went through. I didn't even ask for a hashimotos test and my regular doctors one day said "hey we're gonna test you cuz your blood levels are weird" and lo and behold I had it. An endocrinologist said I needed meds, but when I was on levothyroxine it just made all my symptoms 1000 times worse so I haven't been on those meds in years. I've been gluten and dairy free for over a year and that has done wonders for my weight and ability to function normally, and aside from that stress is the number 1 thing that will make everything come back and my immune system unable to regulate me not getting colds. Sleep, making sure I enjoy each day, hobbies, I have to do it or I'll get sick asap. this year however has been hard since due to certain circumstances my schedule doesn't allow me to get enough sleep 4 days out of the week and it's slowly making me sicker and sicker. Circumstances should change in a few months and I cannot wait for that, but any advice on what to do to boost the immune system when it doesn't get enough sleep would be AMAZING
Vitamin D3 w/ K2, zinc, C, B1, magnesium, does wonders take magnesium at night relaxes you.
@@georgettesturgill4219 haven't tried zinc, K2, B1, and magnesium. I'll have to try that! Whenever i can feel I'm gonna get sick I would take emergen c, which would always almost completely eradicate the incoming cold, but lately it's barely done a thing since I haven't gotten the sleep I need so I know my immune system is not nearly as functional as it normally is. Thanks for you recommendation!
@@platyadmirer emergency has sugar in it I believe. It can mess with your system.
You ignore your doctors. You refuse to take the synthetic thyroid replacement to bring your thyroid levels back to normal. What's the deal?
Do you think there is a connection between these autoimmune diseases and the bioengineering of food?
Its extremely plausible.
Eat as clean as you can it helps a lot very frustrating g to read labels but worth the work. No bad oils in diet is great to.

Oh my goodness. I’m 73. I was diagnosed with hashimotos 40 years ago. I have experienced a lot of what you are talking about. I have been told I’m an attention seeker because I would react so differently than other people to medication and chemicals and on and on. I am currently on 300 mcg of levothyroxine. I haven’t read your book yet, but I am ordering it. I would love the online course but can’t afford that. But 4 1/2 months ago I did eliminate carbs in my diet (down to 20 carbs a day). I don’t feel any better but I have lost some weight. I’m hoping your book will give me more insight into this disease.
I can’t understand his name or the books can you send that info in comment section
This is perfect timing! I got diagnosed about a month ago. Thanks!
My endocrinologist did test me for the thyroid antibodies. My test came back positive. So she diagnosed me with Hashimotos.
The biggest challenges for me are the brain fog, the extreme fatigue and joint pain. I get frustrated with not feeling well.
Unfortunately for me, on top of the Hashimotos, I also have central hypothyroidism due to a macroadenoma
that pretty much left my pituitary non functional. (Due to the pituitary tumor, I also have secondary adrenal insufficiency and very negligible HGH).
ALOT of my frustration comes from not feeling well. But, because so many things are wrong with my health, I don't know what causes all my miserable symptoms...is it the Hashimotos?
Is it the central hypothyroidism?
Is it the secondary adrenal insufficiency or the HGH depletion?
Or what combination of all the above is making me feel so "off" and unwell?
I try to tell my endocrinologist that I don't feel well. Something doesn't feel right inside. I just don't feel right inside.
But, all she says is "well, all your monitored hormone test numbers are within normal range."
It is very discouraging to hear that, when I know that I don't feel right inside.
I just come to the conclusion that I will never feel right inside ever again. I feel so unwell inside that I know something isn't right. But, I don't know how to ever pinpoint what it is so that it could possibly be treated and corrected.
This may sound melodramatic, but it is the truth, that this overall unwell sensation that I feel inside sometimes makes me feel like I am halfway between life and death. That's the feeling that this overall unwellness gives me. It's not constant. Sometimes I feel better than at other times. But, when this feeling of unwellness inside comes over me it really makes me feel halfway between life and death. It's miserable!
Maybe someday I can find some answers.
But, this video was very interesting to listen to.
And maybe, anyone else with any of my issues can give me some feedback on on how they feel and how they cope with their illnesses, including Hashimotos.
I've had that not sick but not well, neither alive nor dead feeling most of the last 40+ years. I tried different things (found on my own-no help from doctors) and finally found a combination that lets me feel good much of the time. I eat a DASH - Mediterranean (sort of) diet, little to no dairy and gluten; drink lots - almost a half gallon - of water a day; go to bed very early; do some deliberate exercise every day; and work with a personal trainer once a week. I also convinced my doc to prescribe natural thyroid instead of levothyroxin. I actually have some pain-free days now!
@@maryjacobs7046 That's good! I'm happy you found some answers! What is the natural thyroid you mention?
When treating the thyroid with meds good doctors try to keep hypothyroid patients numbers LOWER than normal. Not in the normal range BUT LOWER than normal. A lot of hypothyroid patients do not feel well until this occurs. You also have many layers of hypothyroid. So of course it’s possible for it to take more attention and tweaking in all areas to be addressed for you to feel even close to normal. You’re also not making proper responsive cortisol to respond to stress and situations that can stress your body/mind. THAT will also make you feel unwell. So it’s totally understandable. Also, thyroid symptoms, function can wax and wane so that also can explain why you may feel almost normal for a touch and then go back to feeling unwell, not normal. I hope your Docs are addressing ALL your endocrine health issues in tandem. If not try to get better ones.
@@lindyc.2552 I take Armour thyroid.
@@maryjacobs7046 Thanks. I will look into it.
My daughter in law just got diagnosed I know for sure my son was never laughing
I was diagnosed with graves had the radiation done to stop how hi it was working. Since then I had like 10 years of problems from the synthetic medicine. I wasn't making T3 so my endocrinologist got me the meds derived from pigs and I stopped having all the issues I was having. Started to feel normal again.
I only started feeling better when I started taking Armor Thyroid too.
He talks too fast!
Thank you so much for sharing this valuable information. I look forward to checking out the doctor’s websites!
Saving this for later been waiting for this video
I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s about 15 years ago. Had my thyroid function checked about every 4 months initially. It took some years but my function is at steady state on levothyroxine and I feel well.
Herbs works better curing hypothyroidism, visit Doctor isibor CZcams channel his treatment helped my mom
I have Hashimoto's and have a solid nodule on my left lobe. They have been giving me yearly ultra sounds on it. This last time, the nodule enlarged and changed shape. So, they did a biopsy on the nodule and found papillary carcinoma. So, I have a total thyroidectomy scheduled in a few days.
I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism in my early 30's and then shortly after developed lactose intolerance. I wasn't told I had hoshimotos until probably 10 years later.
Great information! Thanks guys!
When my doctor finally got frustrated enough with my complaints, she referred me to an endocrinologist. After 3 months of waiting for an appointment, I was hopeful. He asked me some questions, did a quick exam and said he was sorry but nothing was wrong with my thyroid. He had looked at the blood work (TSH and T4) my Dr had done 3 months earlier and it was within range. I asked about other tests…T3, rev T3. He said if I wanted to do the T3, he would go along but there is nothing there. I asked about an antibody test and he said since I had Graves’ disease 20 yrs ago, I would test with antibodies and that would be meaningless. So I said, well, don’t bother. I went home and ordered my own comprehensive panel and sure enough, my antibodies are at 330. While all other tests are in range, I’m learning that most are not even borderline optimal. So I’m trying to find a dr who can help me. I’ve been keto for 18 months and I think that’s the only thing that is helping since I’ve had no gluten whatsoever and I’m eating 100% whole food. I even make my own mayo in order to avoid all soy.
Ya I've made mayo myself in the past, it kinda split up though, hope you're having better luck, I now avoid it entirely, hubby's bud said try "Fry your grilled cheese on it (yuck), didn't same bud tell him about new best and improved Chinese food.... Stop ✋, I don't want anymore more 💩 food! (Why yes I have told him before thanks for asking!) 💋
What comprehensive panel did you order yourself please
@@laurenglass4514 I went through Ulta Labs and asked for their “Thyroid Health-Advanced lab Panel” here’s their description (an excerpt).
The Thyroid Health - Comprehensive panel tests for T3 Reverse (RT3), T3 Total, T3 Uptake, T3, Free, T4 (Thyroxine), Total, T4, Free, TBG (Thyroxine Binding Globulin), Thyroid Peroxidase and Thyroglobulin Antibodies, TSH, and TSI (Thyroid Stimulating Immunoglobulin).

Thank you so much for airing this segment on Hashimoto's. Very informative.
I just ordered your book, Dr. Kharrazian and can't wait to get it. I do have Hashimoto's and have had this since at least 2018 and do not take the medications prescribed by my doctor. I've been on the Carnivore diet trying to reverse these autoimmune diseases my body is going through. I've seen a small amount of relief but I'm not there yet. After 4 years of trying to lose weight, I did finally lose a total of 15 lbs, but I need to lose another 60 lbs.
I was told I had Hashimoto’s disease by my doctor (former doctor ) never given me any information about it. Or suggested medication.

Great subject and I liked the speaker this week.👍
I have been saying for years that I wish I could find a doctor who could join up the dots. As an auto immune sufferer with coeliac and four other food allergies plus minor Hashimoto disease. Only taking 25mcg thyroid medication I have all sorts of difficulties. Not least violent reactions to some of the new antibiotics. The last and worst being Trimethropine which landed me in hospital for five weeks with meningo- encephalitis. Having recently been given vaccines against various meningeal bugs, I as told it was because I may have a compromised spleen and no doctor has been able to explain
Invaulable information 😻
I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism 32 years ago. I've already had 1/2 of my thyroid removed, & for last 8 years, I've had a huge 'lump' growing on other side of neck where half thyroid was removed. Sometimes my voice gets all screwed up.
Making an appointment to see how large it is using ultrasound.
Sick of this entire 'issue'.
As usual, men are so fortunate..... us women take on 90% of thyroid issues and problems.
In my lifetime, 50+years, I've only met one man who had thyroid problems, & he continued to lose weight.
Just because you haven't met them doesn't mean they don't exist. I'm a guy with a thyroid that doesn't work like it should. So I take levothyroxine daily and have my thyroid levels checked every three months along with the other lab work I have checked every three months because of all the other medical issues I have. I don't know what the big deal is. It sucks. That's life. This chiropractor is a lowlife predator who preys on people searching for miracles.
I've been hypothyroid since my early 20s.
I would love a dive into Graves disease.
Can he talk slower? 😂
I was diagnosed at 11 and was given some thyroid meds which turned on my menstrual cycle. All these years later started taking synthetic thyroid but stopped since I became allergic after a few doses. I also got oral lichen planus in mouth and vaginal area. This all happened in 2015 when I reached menopause. I started taking extra vit d and natural thyroid. Still not perfect but I could tell a difference with the vit d. 6000 ius a day or more and when I get a blood test my vit d levels are mid range. I had to push my doctor to give me the thyroid med sincer e my levels were bord
Anyway do your research and remember everyone is different!

This is ridiculous. Every medical student knows what Hashimoto’s thyroiditis is. There are many “inflammatory doctors” as you call them. . Rheumatologists, dermatologist , endocrinologists, allergy and immunologists, internists.
So find e doctor who actually joins up the dots. I have been looking for one for years. The subject seems too brain stretching for most of them.
