“A wonder for my thyroid…”

-

A few years ago, I began going through a health “nightmare”— something I wouldn’t wish on anybody. I was feeling like total garbage. I was barely making it through the day. I felt like a wind-up toy that kept falling down. I also had intense brainfog, which was leading to incredible feelings of guilt.

I just couldn’t focus on what I needed to do on a daily basis, as a wife, mother and writer... so I got depressed.

Things got so bad, I’d come home at night and fall asleep on the couch at 6:30pm. And my family suffered. No dinner, mounds of dirty laundry, no help with homework for the kids.

As you can imagine, the weight piled on, which made me even more low. None of my clothes fit, sugar and carb cravings were off the charts, and I had no will power. I was comforting myself with food because I felt so awful. I was always cold. My hair was falling out. And sex, forget about it. This capped it off: When I went to see my regular doctor, he said “everything checked out.” My thyroid test came back at 4.5, and he said it was within the “normal” range. BUT I KNEW SOMETHING WASN’T RIGHT!

So I found a doctor specializi­ng in natural medicine, and she said the reason I felt so terrible was my thyroid hormones were at the rock bottom. She said if my thyroid hormones were at a 1.0 or 2.0, I’d feel entirely different.

More important, she discovered the cause of my symptoms: My immune system was attacking my thyroid hormones, making my thyroid underactiv­e. Now here’s the great news: With therapeuti­c doses of thyroid-loving vitamins and minerals... by cutting out gluten which triggers the immune system problem... and with natural therapies, my thyroid was rejuvenate­d. Best yet, I began to feel better and better each day. My energy roared back. The weight began to fall off. My brain fog lifted. I was no longer feeling down in the dumps, in fact I felt great!

I know the power of thyroid supporting nutrients. They were a godsend for me. That’s why I helped formulate the new Thyrofend with the best nutrients to nourish and restore your thyroid back to optimal balance—and now, it’s available to you. -Susan Williams
