Over 45 million people suffer from vague symptoms that they think are a normal part of life and are actually caused by subclinical hypothyroidism, a condition that goes undiagnosed in half the people who have it. (1)

Symptoms such as chronic fatigue, feeling sluggish in the morning, and memory or concentration difficulties are common symptoms of subclinical hypothyroidism. Obviously, these symptoms can occur from other deficiencies as well, but this statement from Dr. Mark Hyman, M.D. of UltraWellness explains why it is such a commonly undiagnosed problem:

Subclinical hypothyroidism may trigger many low-grade symptoms, such as chronic fatigue, trouble losing weight, mild depression, constipation, and more, yet it causes just slight changes in your blood tests. In fact, it often only shows up in tests that most conventional medical doctors never perform, leaving most people to accept the symptoms as a normal part of their lives. (1)

The purpose of this article is not to cause panic or unnecessary concern, but I am living proof of such a situation, with my under active thyroid and lack of iodine absorption never being diagnosed until in my 40’s. After researching the subject, in retrospect, many of the symptoms (more than listed here) I have had my entire life. My kinesiologist was the first doctor to make any improvements in this area.

I recently came across an article about coconut oil as a possible nature help for hypothyroidism.
