When You're Hypothyroid, What You Can Do to Jumpstart Your Metabolism
by Mary J. Shomon

When you're hypothyroid, fatigue, difficulty losing weight, or continued weight gain can all be attributable to a drop in the metabolism that frequently accompanies hypothyroidism. Even after your hypothyroidism is properly treated with thyroid hormone replacement, you may find that your metabolism has not bounced back to where it was before. This sluggishness in your metabolism can leave you feeling exhausted, and finding that you can't lose weight, despite a healthy low-calorie diet.

Here are some ways you can help revive and boost your metabolism.

Make sure you eat breakfast.

If you don't eat breakfast, you slow down your metabolism and send the body into "hoard mode," thinking it's starving because you're going a long period of time frequently 8 to 10 hours or more, without food.

Eat the majority of your food earlier in the day.

Dinner should be your lightest meal, and some experts recommend you don't anything after 8 p.m., or any later than 3 to 4 hours before bedtime. This helps your body process and burn the food when you're aware and moving around and burning more calories per hour.

Don't starve.

Dropping your calorie intake below 1,000 calories a day will signal to your body that you are in starvation mode, and will slow down your metabolism.

Eat smaller meals more frequently.

Smaller, more frequent meals keeps your blood sugar stable and provides a steady source of energy to fuel metabolism.

Get enough aerobic exercise.

As much as you can is really a help for your metabolism, and if you do it in the morning, you'll raise your metabolism all day.

Build muscle with weight training or resistance exercise.

At least two to three times a week, you should add weight training or progressive resistance exercise that builds muscle. Muscle burns more calories than fat, and the more muscle you have, the more calories you burn, even at rest!

Water, water, water!!

You've heard it before, but drink those 8 8-ounce glasses of water every day. The energy burning process of metabolism needs water to work effectively.

Get enough B vitamins.

Among supplements, if you are suffering from flagging energy, you need to make sure that you are getting enough B vitamins. Vitamin B-12 in particular is one that is essential for energy. To ensure you're getting enough B vitamins, consider taking a B complex, plus a separate sublingual B-12.

Try a supplement for fatigue.

Another type of supplement useful for fatigue is in the area of substances that the body naturally produces for energy production. Supplements in this category include:

Co-enzyme Q10, also known as CoQ10, which supplies energy to muscles
L- Carnitine
NADH (Nicotinamide Adenine Finucleotide) which helps cells convert food into energy
Green Tea extract
Try Chinese Herbs

In terms of herbal remedies, while you should avoid ephedra and ma huang stimulants, you can ask your practitioner about schizandra--a Chinese herb that is used for fatigue. Ginseng is also popular for energy. Before trying any herbs, supplements, or vitamins, you should of course consult with your practitioner to ensure they are safe for you. Ginseng, for example, is not recommended for someone with high blood pressure and many herbs and supplements are not recommended during pregnancy.

Try mate tea

In the process of writing my book, Living Well With Hypothyroidism: What Your Doctor Doesn't Tell You...That You Need to Know, I had the opportunity to interview herbal and aromatherapy expert Mindy Green of the Herbal Research Foundation. I asked her what, as a person with hypothyroidism, I should reach for when I'm just completely out of steam, and am ready for a giant double espresso in order to make it through the day. Mindy, said, unquestionably, mate tea. Mate, pronounced, "mah-tay," is an herbal tea native to South America. Mate is considered far more nutritious than black tea or coffee, and though it also has some caffeine, its effects are energizing, rather than making people jittery.

Consider Energy Work

Energy and bodywork , such as yoga, tai chi, qigong (pronounced chee-gung), and Reiki, can all help in adding and balancing energy. In qigong, tai chi, and yoga, gentle movements are used to move energy along the energy pathways of the body. In Reiki, a practitioner helps open up energy channels.

(Remember to always check with your practitioner before starting any herbs or supplements.)

Meni zelo spodbudi metabolizem, ča zjutraj jem samo sadje - ponavadi spijem sok iz citrusov in jem rdeči grapefruit ali ananas, lahko tudi kivi - imajo veliko encimov, ki vzbudijo metabolizem (ne pa tudi apetita, kar je vredu, ker imam preveč kil). Potem dolgo nisem lačna in opoldne lahko jem jabolko ali kako drugo sadje... Telo se spočije, če dopoldne ješ samo sadje.
Teorij je sicer toliko kot ljudi, vsak mora prisluhniti sam sebi...

Dala si dobro idejo. Predlagaj še kam in kdaj (pod nov naslov).

Se veselim, sedaj bo lepo in ne pretoplo vreme. V naravi je že vse pisano.
Verjteni tega ne vidimo vsako leto, da istočasno cvetijo teloho, zvončki, vijolice, velikonočnice, ....

Ja, sto ljudi sto čudi.
Če jem zjutraj karkoli razen sadja, sem ful lačna in začnem zadrževati vodo.. in žreti vse živo... se mi zbudi slinavka, nagaja mi inzulin (nisem sladkornik)
Sicer se mi tudi iz vidika prečiščevanja telesa zdi tole s sadjem pametno.

Večina strokovnjakov pa trdi, da moraš krepko zajtrkovat.....
Ravno zadnjič sem brala, da ni res, da bi morali jesti pet obrokov, da je treba samo tri, da si metabolizem vmes spočije.... pa so nam vedno pravili 5 obrokov...

Prepričana sem, da je ni stvari, ki bi veljala vse. Sem pa tudi prepričana, da se ljudje lahko nekako zgrupiramo in določenim paše enako... samo kaj točno je tisto, spet ne vem. Debveli / suhi ? Krvne skupine ? Leta ? Aktivnosti ? Zdravje / bolezni ?

Že kar pred nekaj časa sem ugotovila, da če bi hotel res idealno živeti, je ena sama pot, ki pa v resnici sploh ni tako lahka. Morda malo lažja kar se telesa in prehrane tiče, vsekakor pa bistveno težja, kar se tiče notranjosti, duše ali kakorkoli bi že temu človek rekel.... Nagajajo nam navade, razvade, "ego" itd...

PRISLUHNITI SAMEMU SEBI.......... INTUICIJA......

Pa prav čisto povsod bi jo morali poslušati.. Na vseh področjih življenja. Čar je ravno v tem, da smo si tako različni in vbsak ima "user's manual" napisan samo v sebi... če ga plonkaš od drugje, se večinoma zatika.... Ampak ko je pa tako obširen in nekje tam notri založen :)

Pa še nekje je caka - v to sem tudi prepričana... V glavnem človeku vsaka stvar, v katero RES verjame sam, tudi deluje....
