A SIMPLE WAY TO ASSESS THYROID CONVERSION ▫️ Body temperature 🤒 and pulse ❤️ is what we choose to use in our practice to measure thyroid 🦋 hormone conversion, but it is not the only one. ▫️ Cellular 🦠 function is ultimately controlled by T3, the most biologically active thyroid hormone. ▫️ Low levels of T3 within the cells 🦠 of the body result in diminished cellular function, which ultimately cause people to suffer with the clinical symptoms of hypothyroidism. ▫️ 💎 Since blood tests cannot measure the level of intracellular T3 (level of T3 hormone located inside the cells), one way to objectively test cellular function is by measuring the speed by which a nerve impulse is conducted through nerve and muscle cells. ▫️ An Achilles tendon reflex is a movement of a muscle caused by the stimulation of a nerve that controls the muscle and causes it to move involuntarily. ▫️ The speed at which this reaction occurs is an indicator of cellular function. 👉🏻The lower the speed of conduction, the lower the cellular energy and function. 👉🏻A slow rate of nerve conduction demonstrates low cellular function and confirms a diagnosis of hypothyroidism. . . #thyroidhealing #thyroidhealth #functionalhypothyroidism #thyroidconversionproblems #achilliesreflex #basalbodytemperature #pulse #thyroidhormone #cellularfunction #assessingthyroidhormoneconversion #lowthyroidlevels #achilliestendonreflex #nolabsrequired #eastwesthealing #realfoodgangstas https://www.instagram.com/p/BvwZQ3WgvA7/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1wie6yzqveifk
