We know that one of the causes of stress and mental unrest is It comes from the abnormal functioning of the thyroid. or in other words (If the root cause is to be found correctly) Stress causes the thyroid to not function properly. which is whether the chicken was born before the egg Or the egg came before the chicken? We ate both chicken and eggs. That is, the thyroid is not normal. and stress
What is stress? Many columns of Cheewajit magazine this fortnight probably already defined it. Let's just say that the editor said that Stress and thyroid abnormalities How does it affect the functioning of the body?
- headache from fatigue
- The immune system is weakened.
- Can't sleep or sleep while awake (meaning the brain doesn't work or blurred)
- mood swings (this abnormality Women often claim that I am a woman You must have this emotion. But in reality...it's not necessary...Men, please remember this. and hurriedly went to adjust her diet But how to adjust it? Please continue following.)
- Craving dessert or coffee (this is the cause of women's mood swings)
- Unable to control food cravings, such as shaking hands or dizziness when it's time to eat.
- Eat to relieve fatigue (Men are starting to see the problems of the girls near you, hehe.)
- Dizziness while standing up
- The subsystem is disturbed. (This one we may not see But notice that It's time to eat. Indigestion occurs There is gas in the stomach. Have symptoms of acid reflux Constipation...these)
When having such symptoms We often solve problems together at the end. Find tips there, tips here. From that media, some are fake, some are true, causing wrong solutions to problems (most of them can't be solved correctly), causing health to deteriorate. Ended up being fat. and become a complainer or cranky
Food, food...(We know that people who read this column are impatient. I want to know the answer quickly. Hehe) Let's listen.
-
You can eat everything.
Whether it's organic food Vegetarian food Five general food groups Except for foods that stimulate the immune system. (autoimmunity) such as eggs and dairy products Because such food will stimulate inflammation. and results in thyroid abnormalities as a result Of course, stress is accompanied by mood swings.
-
Grains, of course, are edible.
Especially rice is a part of Thai culture. But you must be sure that Must be soaked in water before being cooked. This is to avoid gluten and phytic acid or other proteins. that may cause inflammation Leads to thyroid dysfunction and stress associated with disease
-
Vegetable oil...may need to reduce the amount consumed somewhat.
Because there are free radicals leads to inflammation (If our body has too many free radicals)
-
Avoid white flour. and refined grains
And eat less of the processed kind.
-
Don't eat too many carbohydrates.
(Believe that girls Should be the first thing to do. Because I'm losing weight. or fear of gaining weight) Don't forget that eating carbohydrates Will cause the body to secrete insulin. Insulin is a part of the thyroid's function. Insulin is required for the conversion of T3 to T4, and T4 is a hormone that comes from the thyroid gland. (I understand that T3 Derived from parathyroid which is a different gland from the thyroid Insulin helps carry T3 into the thyroid gland. and ejaculated as T4) Meanwhile, in some cases T4 must be converted back to T3 because T3 is more active. Therefore, if insulin levels are too low due to calorie control So I ate too little starchy food and protein. The process of converting hormones from T4 back to T3 can put a strain on the thyroid. Which if it is continued for a long time, it is not good. Therefore, you should get 30 percent of your calories from carbohydrates and another 30 percent of your calories from protein, with the rest being calories from good fats. (Follow and read about good fats, issue dated 1 April 2018)

Take good care of your digestive system.
If so, it's probably the most important thing. Because the connection between the digestive system and thyroid function is very strong. (But few people know, right? Haha.) Because 70 -80 percent of cells in the immune system originate from the digestive system. Including good bacteria in the intestines as important helpers in converting T4 to T3, inflammation within the digestive system. (How do you know? It's from indigestion. bloating Acid reflux, constipation) increases the level of the hormone cortisol. And we all know that this is the stress hormone. This reduces the conversion of T4 to T3 and if there is too little stomach acid. (Observed from symptoms of indigestion Flatulence) will cause bad bacteria to grow, fungus or parasites in the digestive system, all of which lead to food not being absorbed. (Lazy gut or leaky gut syndrome) Inflammation, of course, when it comes down to inflammation. It inevitably develops into a thyroid disorder. And then it escalated into stress. and the erraticity of emotions
(When the intestines are lazy It won't work properly. Some are absorbed, some are not absorbed. Some absorb foreign proteins into the body. And these foreign E-proteins are that disturbs the immune system Normally, it will eat foreign cells. But when the foreign substance comes in the form of protein, it gets confused and eats up the cells. Can't tell which cell is the cell of the body Which cell is a foreign cell?)
In addition to stress linked to thyroid function, There is also stress caused by other causes. That may have to be resolved by making up your mind. or change some behavior Follow in other columns In this fortnight
How to take care of the subsystem easily
Anyone can do it.
- Chew your food slowly.
- Don't drink water between meals.
- Don't eat dessert. or sweet water after meals
