The APA is delighted to host a webinar on Healing the Thyroid with Ayurveda, by Marianne Teitelbaum, D.C..
Marianne Teitelbaum is the author of the first book written to teach people how to treat the thyroid gland from the perspective of Ayurveda, published in 2019.
Marianne beautifully blends ancient Ayurvedic wisdom with modern endocrinology, offering a practical guide for both practitioners and the layperson. Patients from all around the world are thrilled to finally get to the root of their numerous health problems and not just suppress the symptoms using synthetic (or natural) thyroid hormones.
Based on her experience of treating 90 000 patients over 30 years, Marianne Teitelbaum will discuss the main points from her book:
- reasons for thyroid weakness and what to do about it
- successful treatment protocols for Hashimoto’s, hypothyroidism, and hyperthyroidism
- underlying causes of thyroid malfunction, the thyroid’s connections to the liver and gall bladder, and the importance of early detection
Current thyroid treatments are ineffective — if you have blood work which shows a problem with the thyroid gland, chances are you will be put on hormones and monitored for the rest of your life, increasing or decreasing the hormone levels depending on changes in your blood work.
This approach falls short for two reasons: First and foremost, no attention is paid to treating the REASON why the thyroid gland is weak. Taking thyroid hormones only serves to push the thyroid into hibernation as it is no longer called upon to make its hormones. And second, there is a large group of people who have full-blown thyroid symptoms, yet their hormones are normal. This group does have thyroid weakness, but not enough to show up on blood work, so they leave their doctor’s offices feeling frustrated as they are told nothing is wrong with them and no treatment options are offered.
I felt compelled to write this book to teach people all the reasons for thyroid weakness. If you address these reasons and take herbs to support the thyroid gland, it will perk right back up, without the use of prescription hormones.
