Understanding thyroid markers from a functional perspective can transform the way you support clients. Beyond medication, there are impactful ways to help. As the master regulator of metabolism, the thyroid affects everything from body temperature and hormone balance to digestion, nutrient absorption, liver function, cholesterol, and even aging.
You’ll get nutritional guidance for supporting thyroid health, including key dietary triggers, the impact of goitrogens, inflammation, leaky gut, and autoimmunity. We’ll explore gluten’s role in thyroid dysfunction, key autoimmune conditions like Hashimoto’s and Graves’, and how medications and nutrients can influence thyroid function.
Lesson 1
Build a strong foundation by understanding the key physiological functions and hormonal influences essential for exploring thyroid health in depth.
Explore common symptoms and root causes of thyroid dysfunction, along with how other body systems can influence thyroid health.
Understand the difference between standard and functional lab reference ranges. Learn when to test thyroid function and how to identify patterns of dysfunction. We’ll review each thyroid marker in detail, including optimal ranges, potential causes for high or low values, related blood chemistry patterns, and complementary functional lab tests.
Discover the core principles for healing thyroid dysfunction and restoring health. This includes nutritional guidelines, common dietary toxins, key diet and lifestyle considerations, and both non-prescription and prescription thyroid support options.
The course contains 5 hours of video teaching. So if you watch it from start to finish, that’s how long it will take to complete, plus 5 – 10 minutes per module for quizzes. If you really want to dig in and understand the content, I recommend applying the old college rule: 2 hours of studying for every 1 hour of teaching (15 hours total).
