Thyroid Dysfunction

By Dr. Bruce Frye

    Thyronew is a natural supplement and is formulated especially for those persons who have been given a traditional thyroid blood test and showed “normal” and yet still have many of the above symptoms. We can recommend Thyrostim for this extensive population of persons because it contains no thyroid hormone or thyroid glandular rather it contains the necessary elements for your body’s normal hormone production. We don’t make thyroid hormone in a test tube rather we fill the body with the necessary elements to produce its own hormone as the body determines its need.  In addition, we recommend performing the necessary urinalysis to determine the presence of toxins that can disable or block thyroid hormone and detoxify from them properly. 
    

    Thyroid conditions may be the most misdiagnosed medical condition. Medical diagnosis is based upon the use of the TSH hormone test as the definitive answer of the presence or absence of thyroid dysfunction.  TSH or thyroid stimulatory hormone test does not test for the amount of thyroid hormone. Common TSH thyroid testing checks for the amount of stimulatory hormone being released to activate the thyroid, TSH cannot measure the ability of the thyroid to achieve this goal. Therefore, common thyroid hormone tests are performed daily upon persons with obvious low thyroid hormone symptoms to simply be sent away with no answers for their condition.

Protocol: Take 1 Thyronew a day or follow your health care professional’s recommendation.    After taking Thyronew for 3 months it highly recommended you have an additional Iodine Urinalysis testing to determine iodine levels and insure the proper continued dosage.

Iodine Urinalysis Kit: The cost of iodine specific urinalysis testing $75. and requires a first morning urine sample.  If a low iodine level is revealed then the iodine test should be performed once every 3 months until levels stabilize. 

Full Thyroid Panel Urinalysis Kit: The most common causes of thyroid dysfunction are a lack of iodine or the presence of toxins that bind to thyroid receptors and disable its ability to function. These toxins include the most common thyroid binding heavy metals such as cadmium, nickel, mercury even arsenic (commonly found even in the water supply) and aldehydes (which are produced by Candida or Yeast.)

    With the help of German biochemists, Dr. Frye has assembled a thyroid urinalysis panel based on these most common toxins. This panel has proved to be invaluable in determining the cause of thyroid dysfunction. Thyroid toxin panel is available only through Frye Health Systems in the U.S.

    Cost of the Full Thyroid toxin panel is $225 and includes iodine testing. Full Thyroid Toxin panel may be picked up locally at the clinic or ordered on line with urine preservative test tubes for shipping. Upon receiving your test results you may schedule a consultation with Dr. Frye or have your recommendations (nutricuticals) shipped to you, which may include recommendations such as heavy metal detox or a candida formula and complete detox. Formula along with the Thyronew

You may order the Full Thyroid toxin panel urinalysis kit at www.fryeclinic.com or call 918-665-0036 and return the samples to 3227 S. Lakewood Ave. Tulsa Ok. 74135

Thyronew may be ordered as a stand alone supplement.   However, we suggest the urinalysis kit to aid in determining underlying causes of toxicity, determining the appropriate products for detoxification and monitoring of iodine levels.   

 !!!!STRESS !!!!

Symptoms:
Nervousness, irritability, sick stomach or acidic stomach, depression, malaise, headaches, tooth grinding, nervous twitches lowered sex drive.

Physical conditions that are precipitated by stress are fatigued adrenal glands, cortisol causing weight gain, excess sugar consumption and or increased alcohol consumption and sleep disorders.

Acidic related disease such as high blood pressure, ulcers, indigestion, heart burn and calcified arteries and arterial blockage are but a few of the conditions caused by or exacerbated by stress.

What do I do about stress?

Emotional Stress is many times caused by believing in a bad outcome. The truth is these thoughts aren't even true. How many times have you stressed about something and it never even happened? Most people stress over things that never happen or even if they do its not as bad as the stress they experienced over it. In retrospect we can see that stress is a liar and we should have never stressed over our situations. We can also name stress "Fear" You can be free from fear once you........ (for more on stress and Dr. Frye's Biblical approach to the spirit of fear ask for his article "The spirit of fear")

Stress can also be the result of high work demands. We naturally go into a hyper adrenal state in response to a great demand. When work and duties become more than we feel we are able to take care of at our present level of attention, we go into a hyper-adrenal state in an effort to do more and better work. This type of stress is less dependent on our mental outlook as it is a natural state the body goes into upon a great mental or physical demand. The problem is hyperadrenia ultimately leads to fatigue, low circulation, forgetfulness and sleeplessness. This hardly helps us achieve anything!

How can I stop the physical effects of stress?

The first physical tool to stop stress is by limiting the emotional response. We can limit the emotional response by taking the potent essential oils like St. Johns Wort and Valerian.
I recommend the essential oil form of these herbs because it is much stronger than the bulk dry herb and is much better absorbed into the system making it a very quick response to the body. This enables you to take them during a stressful time and see almost immediate results in a calming effect, that limits the effects of stress on you body.

Liquid Calm contains the essential oil of Hypericum (St. John’s wort). Hypericum has a long history dating back to Dioscoridees of ancient Greece and Hippocrates the father of medicine. The Latin name Hypericum Perforatum is interpreted as “over an apparition” or over an evil spirit. The mental emotional properties of hypericum are so strong that it was believed that it would cause evil spirits to depart.

Today we have given these “evil spirits” names (depression, hopelessness, fear, anxiety, rejection etc.) The soothing properties of this herb go further to also sooth the digestive system, relieve ulcers and gastritis. When the body is effected by negative emotions excess acid production occurs and Hypericum aids in stopping this reaction, soothing the mind and stomach.

Valerian Root or Valerian officinalis is most commonly known for its effects on the nervous system. Valerian acts as a mild sedative and has historically been used for nervousness and insomnia. Valerian is also historically known to treat epilepsy, sleeplessness, nausea, digestive irritation, and also acts as a diuretic which increases urination. Today, Valerian is the most common non-prescription sedative. Valerian has been known in Germany to treat unruly children. Today many of these children many have been diagnosed with attention deficit disorders and given prescription medications. Recent studies have shown an alarming relationship to School shootings and prescription drugs used to treat children with attention deficit and stress or depression. In fact these drugs have recently been shown to actually have a high relationship to teen suicide. In the face of these findings its no wonder people are seeking an alternative remedy.

The above information is historical in reference to the individual herbs and not to indicate any claim or cure for the product Liquid Calm.
