There are so many disorders (diseases) of the thyroid gland — hypothyroid (low,
underactive or inactive thyroid),
hyperthyroid (high or overactive thyroid),
thyroid cancer, thyroid nodules, enlarged thyroid, thyroiditis, goiter, etc. One can
medically treat each of the above symptoms but will that cure the cause of the
thyroid imbalance? Allopathic (Western) medicine prescribes one drug to boost an underactive thyroid, another
drug to lower an overactive thyroid and another drug to cure the thyroid
nodules. But expensive lab tests are needed, a different drug is used for each
condition and the patient generally has to stay on that drug for life, with ever
increasing doses (sometimes with side effects) just to maintain normal thyroid blood levels. Is this
holistically healing the body or just creating a dependency?
Dr. Alfred Plechner says
standard blood tests do not measure true thyroid function. The
standard blood test only measures the amount of thyroid hormone level in
the blood, not how much of the hormone is
being utilized by the body. In
other words, a body could have normal thyroid blood levels and still
exhibit hypothyroid (low thyroid) symptoms. This is because the thyroid
hormones in the blood are inactive or bound up. Dr. Plechner developed a
special blood test to detect this—his Basic Endocrine-Immune One tests
for cortisol, total estrogen, thyroid hormones T-3 & T-4, and IgA, IgM
and IgG antibodies. By looking at ALL these factors and not just one
blood thyroid level, he can holistically determine if the thyroid and
adrenals are properly functioning in synergy with the brain.
Since the thyroid is a secondary gland, holistically we would first
look at the primary glands that
control the thyroid. These are the pineal,
pituitary (master gland) and hypothalamus in the brain.
There is an
balance and interdependency between the adrenals and thyroid gland and the
the brain. From our holistic perspectives, we feel to get to the source of any thyroid or
adrenal problems, it only makes holistic sense to
first make sure the glands in the brain are fully functioning. Unfortunately, there are no known
drugs that can cross the blood/brain barrier to do this. But the brain receives
nutritional ingredients across the blood/brain barrier every day to survive. These
nutritional ingredients that can cross the blood/brain barrier can be found in whole
Here is a case study on how
(Spirulina pacifica, Spirulina platensis, Dunaliella salina and astaxanthin from
Haematococcus pluvialis) helped
our cat's body balance and normalize its
hypothyroid AND hyperthyroid
people's body balance and normalize any thyroid condition, in the same way that
bio-algae concentrates helps pets.
Thyroid (Hypothyroid and Hyperthyroid) Case Study
Connie was a stray who adopted
us around 1990. We found out in October, 2002 (age approximately 16
she was hypothyroid, an unusual condition for cats, which accounted in part for
her obesity. We thought it was
just from her overeating when we had to leave dry food down all the time for an elderly, sick cat who died in
July, 2002. We started
giving Connie bio-algae concentrates in the fall of 2002 and
by January 2003, her thyroid values were
normal. We also switched her from
dry kibble to canned and then
raw food, starting
in fall 2002. This also helped Connie slim down from a high of 16 lbs to 11 lbs,
though she has
gained some of that weight back due to inactivity
(caused by severe arthritis). Even our holistic vet was amazed that we could get
senior cat to reduce in weight.
Cats can be hard to
switch to raw
food and it took about a year with Connie. She also
had digestive upsets with
raw food that have now finally resolved after
treatment by veterinary intuitive
Donna Starita and medical
intuitive Madhu O'Toole. After one year of
transition, Connie would eat 100%
raw food, but we still occasionally
canned food as well, to hide her supplements in.
We fed her Artemis, which contains only
and fish--no vegetables or grains (which cats don't need anyway), Evanger's, ZiwiPeak, Weruva and Tiki Cat
canned cat foods.
At one point (20+ years old), Connie tested hyperthyroid, a common condition for elderly cats,
however, with a combination of supplements (bio-algae
and Standard Process Thytrophin PMG) and
homeopaths, we normalized her
thyroid again and it went back into the high normal range. We avoided the radioactive iodine treatment
and Tapazole drug our vet recommended. Note that we used bio-algae concentrates to normalize her hypothyroid and
That's one of the benefits of using a truly holistic product, in addition to
having no side effects. There is not one
pill to correct a low thyroid and
another pill to correct a high thyroid condition as in allopathic medicine.
Bio-algae concentrates excel at helping the body normalize
any glandular or hormonal
imbalance whether too high or too low. Bio-algae concentrates simply supplied super
nutrition to the body which feeds the brain. Once energized, the brain sends the
right amount of nutrition to the thyroid and adrenal glands to bring them back
into balance. It is the brain and body doing the "healing" and not the product. At
approximately 21 years of age, Connie
finally succumbed to kidney failure,
never needing any further treatment for
her hyperthyroid condition.
If you have any hormonal imbalances, especially
thyroid, you must read our information on soy. The
following is a typical story, reported in
Whole Soy Story book from someone in Boulder, Colorado:
|Do you have menopausal
symptoms, enlarged thyroid, hair falling out, low energy,
foregtfullness, lack of mental clarity or depression?
"I am a healthy 48-year-old woman. An avid runner, I have followed
primarily a vegetarian diet for over five years, and have always had excellent
blood chemistry results...Last year, however, I added something significant to
my regular diet of fruits, vegetables, beans and grains: soy products. I
followed the conventional wisdom that this would alleviate early menopausal
symptoms, keep my heart healthy, etc. I ate tofu daily, consumed soy milk in
abundance, snacked on soy nuts...and looked for soy isoflavones in my
supplements. Results: I now am facing surgery for a goiter (enlarged
thyroid)...I have symptoms of thyroid damage. My skin, nails, hair are all
suffering visibly. I have chest pain when I run. Worst of all my cholesterol has
risen from 137 to 210 in the last six months. A nonsmoking, non-drinking
vegetarian who eschews all dairy products simply cannot experience this kind of
change in less than six months without some external factor."
There are many more stories like this, telling of a myriad of health problems
caused by soy. An executive secretary in her 50's with
thyroid problems tells of
how the hidden soy added to the bread she was eating caused such severe forgetfulness
that she could not perform her job. When she stopped eating soy, the mental
problems went away.
bio-algae concentrates do all this? Bio-algae
concentrates simply supplied
the body with nutrients of Vitamin A, B-complex, C, D, E and K,
essential fatty acids of Omega 3, Omega 6, Omega 9, Gamma Linoleic Acid
(GLA content is similar to early mother's milk),
Alpha-Linolenic Acids (ALAs), Dihomogamma-Linolenic Acid (DGLA), Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and more fatty acids, over
4,000 enzymes, 10 essential amino acids plus 10 non-essential ones, all known trace minerals
and elements, antioxidants, phytonutrients, polysaccharides and thousands of other nutrients so the body
could resume normal healthy thyroid function.
Bio-algae concentrates did not
treat the symptoms but holistically balanced the whole body. When the
endocrine and immune systems are holistically balanced, everything will work
like it should. Bio-algae concentrates are so revolutionary they are
100 years ahead of their time. Now
that’s true holistic wellness!

guarantee your results will be the same. Since each body
responds differently to the super nutrition in bio-algae concentrates your
results will be different. These statements have not been evaluated by the FDA.
