An astounding number of people now have thyroid disease in some form sufficient to cause weight gain or block weight loss, cause feelings of being inappropriately cold, fatigue, and add to heart disease risk.
But why? Unfortunately, it is from the combined effect of several trends in the modern human diet and exposures to industrial chemicals.
Addressing your thyroid status is therefore a modern necessity.
Hi dr Davis.
Could you please tell me the blood tests for thyroid function to ask my doctor to perform as I think I might have a thyroid condition. Both my mother and grandmother did.
Thank you
Gail

There was a discussion here in January: Thyroid Tune-Up
There is also a summary here: Thyroid Optimization Quick Reference, with test details. Depending on where you live, you may not need to depend on your doctor to get informative testing.
Correcting thyroid presumes that you have done the rest of the Undoctored or 2014+ Wheat Belly program, which does a lot to remove thyroid antagonists, and addresses iodine deficiency.
