Hyperthyroid from a Holistic Perspective

Hyperthyroidism is characterized by over-activity of the thyroid gland, which causes abnormal level of thyroid hormones and results in a rapid metabolism. The condition specifically refers to a combination of high levels of thyroxin (T4) and tri-idothyronine (T3) hormones produced by the thyroid gland, and low levels of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) produced by the pituitary gland. In normal conditions, TSH stimulates the thyroid gland to maintain sufficient levels of T3 and T4 hormones, which are responsible for maintaining metabolism, muscle and nerve activity, blood flow, reproductive health and various other important functions of the body. Although hyperthyroidism can affect anyone, it is most common among women between the ages of 20 and 40. If left untreated, hyperthyroidism can be life-threatening.

Causes of Hyperthyroidism

The exact cause of hyperthyroidism is not known, but it is commonly associated with the process of destruction of cells by the body when it fails to recognize them as its own (auto immunity), in a condition called Grave's disease. Other causes associated with hyperthyroidism include:

• Family history of thyroid disease
• Non-cancerous growths of thyroid gland or pituitary gland
• Tumors of testes or ovaries
• Specific viral infections
• Poorly managed dosage of levothyroxine hormone while treating hypothyroidism

The peer-reviewed published research quoted on this page represents some of the studies done on natural remedies for Hyperthyroidism. More such studies can be found on pubmed or google scholar. Our doctors participate in or evaluate research from all traditions before formulating our precedent-setting kits. However, the laws on natural medicine vary, from country to country, and we, therefore, make no claims beyond those made by the FDA in your country who is the only authority that can legally make a claim to cure, treat, or mitigate a disease. You are welcome to discuss this research with your doctors. If they truly care about your health they too will take the time to study it with an open mind. You may then take our all natural products for Hormonal and Endocrine support. Biogetica supports you in your right to know and choose and we vow to be with you every step of the way. No one will be turned away from receiving our natural remedies even if they cannot pay.

The conventional system of medicine for hyperthyroidism is hormone replacement therapy and beta-blockers.

The drugs include:

• Anti-thyroid drugs - propylthiouracil, carbimazole, methimazole (Tapazole).
• Beta-blockers - propanolol (Inderal), atenolol (Tenormin), metoprolol (Lopressor).

Biogetica’s mission is to provide you with integrated natural solutions that target root issues across the physical, energetic and informational spectrum of your life. Our Doctors research all possible ingredients and combine them synergistically into kits to potentially lead you back to health and freedom.

Biogetica's approach to healing is based on the following aspects:
1. Heal the Entire Being
2. Look for Natural Solutions
3. Appeal to the Balancing Forces Inherent in all Nature
4. From Medication to Meditation

1. Heal the Entire Being:
Biogetica has a unique and comprehensive Holographic model of healing which synthesizes all the traditional natural health systems to simultaneously ease physical, mental, emotional layers of your being.

You, as a living, thinking, feeling, vibrating being, are much more than a collection of inter-related chemical processes. You are life itself. Life can never be reduced to a series of chemical reactions as chemical reactions cannot create life. Every thought, emotion, vibration or action leads to a series of chemical changes in the body. Biogetica recognizes this and balances the ENTIRE BEING, bringing mind, body, and soul into harmony. Treating an ailment on a molecular level alone, seldom has a lasting effect as the untreated social, emotional, mental, spiritual and energetic patterns cause the ailment to manifest once again on a physical plane. Holistic healing is necessary for lasting relief. Biogetica, therefore, uses Resonance Homeopathic to harmonize the entire being; flower essences to attune the mind; Ayurvedic, Tibetan, and Chinese herbs to balance the energetic and the physiological manifestation of the five elements; and nutraceuticals to coordinate cellular nutrition.

2. Look for Natural Solutions:
Our bodies are made of and supported by nature and therefore can only be healed by nature in the long term. Chemicals are often necessary for immediate change in an acute situation but tend to do the body more harm than good in the long run. Hence, Biogetica's Doctors are dedicated to providing natural solutions that are supported by evidence and prior use. To us, the argument is fairly obvious: One would use wood to fix a desk made of wood or metal to fix a car made of metal, so why use chemicals to fix a body made of nature?

Nature has blessed the Earth with natural remedies and healing mechanisms. It would be wise not to ignore them. The intelligence of nature is much greater than that of man. Unfortunately, man still focuses on chemical medicines, as they can be patented and sold for huge profits. Allopathic attempts to treat chronic ailments by interfering directly with the chemical processes using man-made substances have essentially been a failure. We claim to be cracking the gene code, but we still can't cure a cold with man-made substances!!! Homeopathic and Naturopathic methods are never studied and verified by governing bodies, as there is no one who will spend millions obtaining an approval on herbs, knowing that they cannot be patented and sold exclusively by them.

3. Appeal to the Balancing Forces Inherent in all Nature:
Life cannot be recreated with chemical interactions and there is much more to life than molecular interactions. Our bodies are the most advanced pharmacies on the planet and millions of functions happen each minute with astounding precision. Biogetica therapies are designed to appeal to the balancing forces apparent in all nature by reminding and stimulating the body towards a certain function. The nutraceuticals in our kits provide specific nutrition for a function, the herbs in our kits balance the terrain of the body so that it is able to perform that function and the resonance homeopathies are designed to remind the body to be in resonance with that very function.

4. From Medication to Meditation:
Good health and freedom involve every aspect of our being including diet, lifestyle, exercise, emotional states, thoughts and energetic patterns. Biogetica Drs have therefore designed diet, nutrition, exercise, and meditation protocols specific to various life situations. We encourage you to actively partake in these for best results.
