We're going to be talking about Hashimoto's and weight loss. A lot of these come from questions that we've gotten. We had a zillion questions. So most of what we're going to be doing over these 30 days is answering those questions and then filling in the blanks for you. And some of you are saying, Hashimoto's and weight loss? I got Hashimoto's and I put on 60 pounds and I can't get it off. And you are the more common Hashimoto's patient if you have put on weight. I just had a thin Hashimoto's patient. And if you want more on this, the thin Hashimoto's patient, we have a much longer presentation on it on powerhealthtalk.com and you just type in thin Hashimoto's patient and we'll explain a lot more about that.

But just to keep it short, about 85%, 90% of patients get an immune attack in Hashimoto's and it slows down, it beats up, it's hitting their thyroid, it's damaging thyroid tissue, it's damaging the ability for thyroid to be made. So we start getting tired, we start getting overweight, we start getting swelling around the ankles, constipation, all things that are indicative of slow metabolism. The thyroid controls your metabolism. But there's a number of patients, I'd say 10%, maybe 15%, maybe probably closer to 10% or less, that come in who have Hashimoto's who are thin. They have been mistakenly called hyperthyroidism, they have been tested for Graves' disease. Graves' disease is an attack on the actual thyroid stimulating hormone that stimulates your thyroid. And if you get an immune attack on that, it keeps making more and more stimulating hormone. And now you stimulate it more, you make more thyroid hormone, and you're like this.

So there are two different antibodies that you measure. One's called an antithyroglobulin antibody and the other one's called antithyroid peroxidase enzyme. And it seems to me, depending on which one of those get hit or both of them get hit, you can go into hyperthyroidism. And here's the deal, you'll be thin. You'll get this attack on your thyroid. And instead of you getting tired and getting the weight gain, you're actually going to become hyper. Because that attack, unlike Graves', which attacks something called the thyroid stimulating hormone, it's attacking another part of the thyroid. But it is still forcing the thyroid to create more iodine, which ultimately creates more thyroid hormone. And now when you get too much thyroid hormone, when it's too little, you're like this. When it's too much, you're like that.

But the interesting part of this is that the hyper thyroid people generally are thin, they generally are wired, they generally can't sleep. They don't really have a lot of the hypothyroid symptoms from that perspective. But most of them, for some reason their hair will fall out, their eyebrows will get thin, their valves will be off. And they will have still a number of hypothyroid symptoms. So they kind of morph back and forth between hypo and hyper, but they are hyper.
