About the course
Why is it so difficult to lose weight with hypothyroidism?
With hypothyroidism, the metabolism of almost all substances in the body is disrupted: fat (lipid), protein, carbohydrate, mineral, water-salt, etc. Slow, incomplete absorption and processing of substrates into energy is one of the main factors that hinder weight loss and provoke abnormal weight gain.
In a state of such dysfunction, regardless of the cause of its occurrence, the thyroid gland ceases to produce the required amount of hormones that affect metabolic processes. Also, inadequate therapy with only one replacement hormone – T4 – prevents full compensation of hypothyroidism and leads to obesity due to the increase in reverse T3, which inhibits metabolism. In turn, it is the active thyroid hormone – T3 – that is active and performs a huge number of functions essential for the body:
- Actively participates in protein synthesis, controls its synthesis and processing.
- Affects the rate of breakdown of fat compounds coming from food.
- Reduces blood cholesterol levels (LDL, or low-density lipoproteins).
- Accelerates the breakdown of glycogen (material for glucose production, "reserve" carbohydrates in the body).
- Participates in water-electrolyte metabolism.
- Affects tissue growth of organs and bone formation.
- Helps in the full delivery of nutrients and oxygen to the body's cells.
It is precisely the lack of the active thyroid hormone T3 in hypothyroidism, and the imbalance of all the listed metabolic functions in general, that prevent maintaining healthy weight and height proportions. How to restore metabolic quality, how to speed up metabolism, and much more will be discussed in the course.
