Your thyroid controls your entire life.
If it isn't working, it damages your health, energy, and metabolism.
But 2 out of 3 people with thyroid issues are not aware.
Here are the signs your thyroid isn't working (and how to fix it):
What is your thyroid?
It’s a small butterfly-shaped gland in your neck.
But it’s the master switch of your metabolism.
It runs your:
• Body temp
• Weight
• Energy
• Digestion
• Mood
• Fertility
If it's off, everything else suffers
How it works:
Your brain sends a signal: TSH (thyroid-stimulating hormone)
Your thyroid makes two hormones:
• T4 (inactive)
• T3 (the one that actually gives you energy)
T4 gets converted into T3 in your liver & gut.
If that conversion fails, you feel like hell.
The 3 hidden problems behind thyroid dysfunction:
Problem #1: Poor Conversion (T4 → T3)
• Caused by stress, liver issues, or low nutrients
• You have hormones, but your body can’t use them
If you're struggling with quality sleep, here's one of the best science-backed natural supplements I've found.

Problem #2: Chronic Stress
• High cortisol blocks thyroid function
• You stay tired no matter how much you sleep
Problem #3: Autoimmunity (Hashimoto’s)
• Your immune system attacks your thyroid
• Most common cause, but often missed
Fix #1: Support your T3 conversion
• Eat enough carbs (yes, really)
• Selenium (brazil nuts, eggs, sardines)
• Zinc (beef, pumpkin seeds)
• Magnesium (glycinate or malate)
• Liver support (bitter greens, milk thistle)
Fix #2: Lower cortisol to protect your thyroid
Cortisol blocks T3.
Lower it by:
• Deep sleep (7.5+ hrs)
• Morning sunlight
• Walking after meals
• Meditation or breathwork
• Avoiding overtraining (chronic HIIT = thyroid death)

Fix #3: Heal your gut
Up to 20% of T4 → T3 conversion happens in your gut.
• Fix bloating, constipation
• Cut seed oils & alcohol
• Add probiotics (kefir, yogurt, sauerkraut)
• Test for infections (H. pylori, SIBO, candida)
Fix #4: Remove hidden thyroid killers
• Fluoride in water → blocks iodine
• BPA/plastics → mimic estrogen
• Mold toxins → suppress TSH
• Gluten → linked to Hashimoto’s
Drink filtered water, avoid plastic, and test for mold if symptoms persist.
If you want one master fix:
Heal your metabolism.
Your metabolism depends on:
• Proper nutrition
• Hormone balance
• Deep sleep
• Low stress
• Mitochondrial health
• Blood sugar stability
Thyroid problems are often a signal, not the root.
