What happens when your thyroid hormones are within range but your testing positive for thyroid antibodies?

A great question and a confusing result indeed. Here’s the breakdown of what that means.

Unfortunately, it’s not common practice for doctors to test for antibodies. And usually they won’t prescribe anything for antibodies unless your thyroid hormones are dysfunctional, then they might start you on thyroxine or similar.

This is because there isn’t much that they can do for high antibodies. They may even say to you “nothing can be done” and imply there is no way for you to reverse this autoimmune attack on your thyroid.

But that is just not true. Herbs, nutrients and working on autoimmunity via gut health and key areas of focus in naturopathic work. Time and time again, we see thyroid health improved and thyroid antibodies reduced.

It’s not too late!

Why do I love herbal medicine?
It’s medicine we’ve evolved with. Medicine we’ve grown with. It can communicate with our bodies more effectively than man made medicines. And it can reach places man made medicines can’t.

Herbal medicine is restorative and regenerative. It tells a story and can often help us tell our own.

Have you tried herbal medicine before?

Easy and DIY - Low Tox
🍄 Anti-fungal mould spray!

SAVE this recipe for later use 🫧
Steps:
1. Add 30 whole cloves and 2.5 cups of white vinegar into a glass airtight container.
2. Cover and store in a cool, dark place for 1-2 weeks.
3. Strain cloves and add leftover vinegar solution to a glass amber spray bottle.
4. Spray and enjoy happy cleaning!

Clove contains essential oils that are natural anti-fungals. Meaning they kill off any fungus or mould spores when they come in contact. Coupled with vinegar to disinfect and prevent reoccurrence, this spray is perfect for those moist areas in your shower, bathroom, kitchen and laundry!

CLEAN ingredients for CLEAN living.

The common bleach cleaners just weren’t cutting it for us. It wipes it away at first, but ammonia can actually feed spores if they are not fully eradicated. Leading to quicker reoccurrence!

Whats something in your home you need for swap for a low tox option?

FIVE Super Common Misconceptions about Naturopathy and Natural Medicines. Here’s the Facts! 📠 ‼️

Naturopathy can be misunderstood easily as it is not regulated by a governing body in Australia. It is therefore up to individual Naturopaths to register with an ongoing association each year after they graduate from their Bachelor’s degree. These associations help hold us accountable and keep the public safe. Unlike other Western countries, anyone can call themselves a naturopath without the proper training - This is why it is important to visit a DEGREE-QUALIFIED naturopath.

With this in mind, I hope this post can set the record straight and give you more insight into the world of naturopathy 🌸🩷

I spent this morning listening to .avivaromm speak at the virtual herbalism conference; Cortisol rest and Stress Recovery.

So many gems learnt over this brief hour. The impact of modern living is real and our slow to evolve nervous systems have not caught up to be able to distinguish between a real danger (like running from a tiger) or a modern day issue (like paying bills).

This sets us up for experiencing chronic low level stress, on top of the potential for severe stressful events to occurs such as loss of a family member or job security. And not to mention the potential of experiencing actual traumas to the body or mind (like natural disasters or experiencing abuse).

And while we like to consider cortisol as our ‘stress hormone’ it is actually so much more than that. When it is not in excess, it regulates inflammation, immunity, executive functioning and more. Cortisol is a foundational hormone, like insuline, that is absolutely ESSENTIAL for our survival. But too much of a good thing is possible.

Chronic stress and chronic exposure to cortisol can lead to:
✋🏼 fatigue
✋🏼 insulin resistance and metabolic dysfunction
✋🏼 troubles with sleep
✋🏼 brain fog or worsening memory
✋🏼 irritability and anxiety
✋🏼 depression
✋🏼 disrupted circadian rhythm

Our nervous system requires regular fine tuning and care to clock out of the pressures of modern life and clock in to our internal rhythms of joy and healing.
