I have thyroid issue and my anti-TPO levels are high. What does that mean?
High anti-TPO is a sign that body's immune system has created antibodies against your thyroid cells which is causing an autoimmune condition called Hashimoto's thyroiditis. This will progress slowly as the cells continue to damage the thyroid cells over time. I would recommend stopping gluten and dairy entirely for the time being. Leaky gut is often a co-factor in Hashimoto's, so healing the gut lining through probiotics and L-glutamine should be the first course of action. Do not stop your thyroid medications immediately as we will have to slowly taper them as we observe progress. This is a condition we will have to monitor intimately to make microchanges every now and then. Please contact our team so our doctors can help you out with reversing this condition.
Every month you delay treating the root cause, the gut lining takes more damage. The longer the inflammation continues, the harder it becomes to reverse — and the more the condition spreads into other systems. Fatigue. Hormonal imbalance. Skin flare-ups. Anxiety. What starts as acidity or bloating rarely stays just that. At Thavira Health, our AYUSH-certified doctors have seen what years of unaddressed gut dysfunction does to the body — and what's possible when it's treated correctly. If you've been putting this off, our information-packed webinar is the place to start — or connect with us on a one-on-one consultation call: thavira.health.
