Jimmy Moore intervjuar Chris Kresser på sin podcast Ask the Low Carb Experts
Rekommenderas varmt! Jag önskar jag kunde skriva lika fort som de pratar för det här skulle jag vilja ha nedskrivet.
Några av punkterna som de pratar om:
• What dietary changes people can implement to treat thyroid issues
• Thyroid gland is in the neck and pituitary gland excretes TSH
• Pituitary increases thyroid stimulating hormone when thyroid is low
• T4 is not metabolically active but is converted to the active T3
• Thyroid panel can be normal, but conversion of T4 to T3 is impaired
• Fasting, calorie restriction or carb restriction will cause this
• Reverse T3 is “metabolic dead-end” blocking active T3 from forming
• Low-carb diets tend to keep T3 levels down because lack of glucose
• When insulin is low, there’s a decrease in conversion of T4 to T3
• For people with insulin resistance, the same thing happens as well
• Studies haven’t borne out thyroid function plays a role in weight
• Trials trying to treat obesity with thyroid hasn’t been successful
• How low-carb can be both the cause and solution to thyroid issues
• We all have a lot of differences and avoid “blanket statements”
• Generalizations can’t be said because of our diversity
• There are studies that discuss the decrease in T3 on low-carb
• The 20% carbohydrate diet in a study led to the T3 drop
• Overfeeding in general will cause a T4 to T3 conversion
• A study of ketogenic (2% carbs) diet showed same impaired T4 to T3
• There may be a period of adaptation that people can adjust to
• How significant the T4 to T3 conversion really is on health
• His patients have hair falling out and cold hands/feet
• When they eat more carbs, the symptoms tend to go away
• Lower T3 levels may lead to increased longevity
• You have to consider interplay of longevity, health and performance
• It comes down to what your goals are and what’s important to you
• If living a long time, then keeping T3 levels low is good
• Which is worse–low T3 or high insulin/leptin?
