Understanding Hashimoto’s Disease

Hashimoto’s disease, an autoimmune disorder, occurs when the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks the thyroid gland. This can lead to hypothyroidism, a condition where the thyroid gland does not produce enough thyroid hormone. Symptoms can range from fatigue and weight gain to hair loss and depression.

Conventional Treatments vs. Integrative Medicine

While conventional medicine often involves thyroid hormone replacement therapy, integrative medicine offers a more holistic approach, considering the whole person and addressing the root causes of the condition.
