You are wise to cut out sweets and limit dairy. However, lowering your overall fungal load and the corresponding exposure to mycotoxins can sometimes have a stimulatory affect on the thyroid. Fungal mycotoxins are xenoestrogens; estrogens have a suppressive effect on the thyroid. Your weight loss may have compounded the stimulatory affect because less fat equals less estrogens.
You might consider starting with some L-glutamine and then moving up to Whey Protein Isolate to help you build muscle mass, increase energy levels and support immunity. |
