I wanted to share the key highlights from the thyroid seminar I just completed.

Did you know that …?

1/4-1/3 of patients who developed SARS-CoV-2 developed a thyroid condition initially caused by a big inflammatory response to virus entering the thyroid?

*SARS~CoV-2 recognises angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE2) as its receptor on the host cell, which is largely expressed by the cells of the thyroid – ACE2 expression is responsible for direct cellular damage to the thyroid gland, due to viral entry and sustained replication?

* Mental and physical fatigue is the biggest symptom of all thyroid conditions.

*Natural killer cells increase during sleep : crucial for host immunity.

*Low white blood cell count is linked with the following s
Hashimoto’s thyroiditis
Immune compromised patients
Low neutrophils or lymphocytes
Autoimmunity

*Iron supports metabolism of thyroid hormones and is required for:
Conversion of T4 to T3
Uptake of thyroid hormones at receptor
Thyroid peroxidase activity therefore active metabolism on your cell.

Start your day the best way with foods that support and nourish your thyroid and therefore mental and metabolic health: Intermittent fasting in the morning is causing lots of stress to your thyroid if you are woman due to your very different hormonal and metabolism cycles.

There is a virus going around our community starting with a very scratchy sore throat. Elderberry extract is your go to during this time, clinical studies has shown it to enhance interferon responses, bolstering the body's natural defense mechanism against invading pathogens. Interferons are natural within the body and "interfere" with viruses by preventing them from multiplying inside healthy cells. Elderberry compounds support this defense by blocking viral glycoproteins, directly reducing the virus's ability to bind to and enter a cell.Cytokine Balance: Elderberry is also known to modulate the secretion of other cytokines (like interleukins and TNF-\(\alpha \)). This helps stimulate an early immune response while keeping inflammation in check. Pop in store today for elderberry liquid or tablets to help prevent or fight a flu.

Zinc deficiency leads to an increase in oxidative stress, issues with stomach such as inability to repair the gut lining, and overgrowths of bad bacteria, reduced stomach acid production, absorbing key nutrients, slow wound healing, inability to make complex nervous system connections and as such you may suffer from not able to multitask, memory issues, lateral thinking. With all this in mind, it’s important to choose a form that’s best for you at the stage of health and life you are at. See comparisons with citrate, picolinate, oxide and glycinate forms below.

Cognitive health doesn’t just affect memory, it shapes mood, focus and daily performance at every stage of life. Supporting brain health is a no-brainer, especially when:

🌿 work requires you to uplevel mental performance
🌿 studying or learning new knowledge and skills
🌿 brain fog is thwarting productivity and focus
🌿 diagnosed with ADHD
🌿 prioritising healthy ageing and cognition for life

Set yourself up for success this year with specific herbs and nutrients for learning, memory, concentration and focus.

Important for brain and neurological function, optimal Magnesium intake is associated with better cognitive performance and a lower dementia risk.[1]

Bacopa is a cognition-enhancing tonic that rejuvenates the nervous system and improves learning, memory and concentration.[2] The herb also benefits those with ADHD.[3]

Saffron has nootropic, neuroprotective and cognition-enhancing effects. Research trials have confirmed Saffron’s cognitive benefits in both dementia[4] and ADHD.[5]
