so today we’re going to talk about how

to lose more weight having a type of

thyroid condition okay so if you have a

slow thyroid this videos for you here’s

the big problem when you do research on

a hypothyroid it’s a bit complex because

you have Hashimoto’s hypothyroid

condition you have nan Hashimoto’s

hypothyroid condition you’re given so

much advice it’s almost impossible to

know what is the absolute important

things to know and what is the trivial

in this video we’re gonna talk about the

absolute most important thing you need

to focus on to get results with weight

loss if you have a Hashimoto’s type

thyroid case or just regular

hypothyroidism a few basics

you got the thyroid right here it’s

located right in the bottom part of the

neck two and a half inches wide it

produces a hormone t4 okay the four

represents the number of iodine

molecules so you get four and then you

got this t3 over here right so T 4 t4 is

an inactive thyroid hormone it’s not

active it doesn’t really do much it’s a

pre hormone your body strips off this

one of the iodine molecules and it

converts to t3 t3 is the active form of

thyroid hormone okay it’s the thing that

goes into all the cells and speeds up

your metabolism as well as weight loss

and here’s the most important thing to

get from this t4 to this t3 it has to be

converted okay

eighty percent of the conversion happens

through your liver and 20% happens

through the kidneys and this is really

important information because so many

people that have a hypo thyroid

condition have a fatty liver I mean it’s

almost one for one if you have belly fat

chances are you have a fatty liver you

can get an ultrasound to find that out

but a fatty liver decreases the capacity

for that conversion so this will be your

focus to get the fat off the liver and

improve the function of the liver now it

could also be a problem with your

gallbladder it could be a problem with

not having a gallbladder it could be

cirrhosis it could be inflammation or

some damage in the liver but usually it

is a fatty

liver now you would think that all I

need to do is cut the fat out of my diet

and the fat will go away that’s not how

it works and that’s not which one to do

you do want to cut the carbs out okay

that’s why I’m gonna recommend keto in a

minute fasting but you don’t want to

start cutting down the fat and your diet

okay here are a few things to speed up

the process choline is one of the most

powerful nutrients to strip fat off your

liver very quickly you can get into

powder you can get into supplement I

recommend you get a high quality choline

and start taking that on a regular basis

that’s going to assist this nutrient is

lipotropic it’s it basically dissolves

fat and guess what food has the highest

amount of choline eggs egg yolks

interesting right so you don’t want to

start giving up those foods that are

high in choline in fact if you have a

choline deficiency you could potentially

get a fatty liver next thing is selenium

okay why selenium selenium is also

involved in the conversion from t4 to t3

people that have a fatty liver are

nearly always deficient of selenium as

well as zinc we’ll get to this in a

minute but selenium is an antioxidant so

it actually gets rid of the excess

hydrogen peroxide in your body let’s

generate especially if you have

Hashimoto’s hypothyroidism

so selenium is essential if you have

Hashimoto’s this is really important

because it’s it’s going to help your

immune system okay so if you have

Hashimoto’s you want to take some of

this as a supplement and you also want

to do more strict in a minute fasting

that’s gonna drop the inflammation

because Hashimoto’s is more of an immune

issue okay but it’s also involved in the

conversion of t4 to t3 yes there’s foods

high in selenium like Brazil nuts and

seafood but I don’t recommend trying to

get all of your selenium from foods if

you’re deficient you want to take it as

a supplement now I don’t want to get

into the brands or dosages I would just

look online for something that looks

like it has a lot of good feedback on

other people that are getting good

results with it okay and then follow the

directions on the back of the bottle all

right next one is iodine iodine is part

of the raw material to build the thyroid

hormone and a lot of people are

deficient in iodine so I would get this

from sea kelp next one is zinc zinc is

really really important taking zinc will

help you in almost every single side

effect that hypothyroid produces like

for example loss of hair thinning hair

fatigue constipation zinc is good for

that zinc is very very very very good

for the thyroid it’s also good for the

liver and if you have a fatty liver you

are going to be deficient in zinc okay

zinc is an oysters meat pumpkin seeds I

recommend getting it as a supplement so

these are the key things in addition to

keto and I F as your primary focus the

target inductance fatty liver to improve

the thyroid function thanks for watching
