HASHIMOTO'S THYROIDITIS
Table of ContentsAre you prone to a problem with 'Hashimoto's Thyroiditis'? Find your imbalances and create a diet for your Weight by taking the free weight loss quiz: AYURVEDA PERSPECTIVE ON HASHIMOTO'S THYROIDITISHashimoto's Thyroiditis is an autoimmune response in the thyroid. An autoimmune disorder is when your body recognizes "you" as a foreign body or pathogen. Your immune system's job is to rid the body of harmful pathogens so you stay healthy- in the case of autoimmune inflammation, your immune system mistakenly attacks your own cells. In Hashimoto's Thyroiditis, the victim is your thyroid.Autoimmune inflammation of the thyroid leads to low production of thyroid hormones, or hypothyroidism. Thyroid hormones are responsible for your metabolism. Common symptoms are weight gain, foggy mind, mood swings, constipation, and hair loss. The thyroid gland is significantly placed close to the lungs. In Ayurveda, thyroid disorders are related to oxygen levels, poor circulation and any disorder that affects metabolism, related to weak function of the lungs, heart, or circulatory system. Undue muscle tension in the throat area can also affect thyroid function. Auto-immune disorders may be triggered by a lingering viral infection, long after the acute phase has resolved. Stress, poor liver health, toxicity and chronic inflammation are just some of the factors that lead to continual overstimulation of the immune system, a Pitta disorder. There are numerous techniques to calm the immune system including 1) Relieving stress, 2) Hypoallergenic herbs, 3) Herbs, diet & yoga to balance the liver, and 4) Anti-histamines or pharmaceuticals prescribed by your doctor. Disclaimer: 'Hashimoto's Thyroiditis' could be serious and should be checked by a medical doctor.

HOW AYURVEDA WORKS
ARE YOU WONDERING HOW AYURVEDA CAN HELP YOU?WHY IS AYURVEDA THE RIGHT SOLUTION?
Ayurveda strengthens the body while opposing disorders. It takes a holistic, systemic approach that looks at the whole body. Ayurveda shows how to interpret signs and symptoms of imbalance, and how to address them using diet, lifestyle adjustments, and herbs. It shows a person how to optimize their health on a continual basis. You can't take the doctor home with you, but you can take Ayurveda home with you. Ayurveda is the most advanced and easy to use home system for self healing.HOW DOES AYURVEDA WORK?
Ayurveda starts by identifying your body type, which identifies certain tendencies in your body to get sick (as well as identifying your strengths). It uses body type to determine the likely root causes of your disorders. Next, Ayurveda analyzes the nature of your disorder. It fits all your signs and symptoms into a pattern, expressed as a combination of biocharaceristics (gunas). For example, you may have a heat disorder, a cold disorder, or an oily disorder, etc. This simple categorical approach shows you how to correct systemic imbalances and strengthen your body as a whole.On Joyful Belly, we've created an extensive categorization of food so you can easily match food to your imbalanced biocharacteristics. By eating an optimal diet that balances your biocharacteristics, your whole body is strengthened and the conditions that created the disorder are removed. Once the root causes of the disease are removed, the disease lessens in strength or disappears altogether. Additional remedies - such as herbs and lifestyle practices - focused on the specific disorder, can greatly enhance your healing.
