Why Do I Need Custom Thyroid Care?

There is no one-size-fits-all approach to thyroid care.  People are not all the same!  Here are just a few reasons why we customize our approach.  Patients have: 

  • Different basic needs for the amount of thyroid replacement.
  • Differences in thyroid antibody activity and/or gland destruction.
  • Different tolerances or sensitivities to fillers and formulations.
  • Different genetics that contribute to thyroid processing.
  • Different gut microbiomes and absorption environments.
  • Different intracellular concentrations of thyroid hormone.
  • Differences in peripheral metabolism of thyroid hormone.
  • Different interfering prescription medicines and nutritional deficiencies.
  • Differences in other interfering hormones.

The thyroid journey is just that — a journey! As the variables listed above change throughout a patient’s life, so too does the type, dose, and administration of their thyroid medicine.  As ATI-certified thyroid providers, we understand that and are here to guide you along the way so that you can Live Thyroid Healthy! ™
