Low thyroid function leads to pre-diabetes
Many of our patients have low thyroid function, based
on low normal test results and improvement of symptoms with natural thyroid
treatment. A study from the Netherlands
shows that those with low thyroid activity have a 40% chance of developing
prediabetes, which in turn might convert into full-blown diabetes. The answer is to take natural thyroid
medicine as needed and be careful to avoid excessive carbohydrates.
