Miscellaneous
On this episode of Living Beyond 120, Mark and Dr. Gladden discuss how health is an economy of balance. To support this, they consider some new findings about taking certain supplements and how it can affect different health aspects. One thing can tip the balance for test results, on any given day. Then they turn their discussion to the thyroid again, talking about why many traditional doctors often miss problems that start with a dysfunction of the gland. They talk about the many symptoms that can be tied to thyroid problems, even if your test results appear “normal.” They cover the kinds of tests you can get done, outside of your normal doctor’s protocol, to help get a clearer diagnosis. The thyroid sets the metabolic rate for the entire body, so nothing will work right unless it is functioning properly.
