Hi @Inga-55 – thank you for sharing more information about your diet and symptoms.

Can you tell us more about these headaches you’re having? What’s the frequency? What’s the timing of the headache? What’s the location of the headache? And what do you do or take to manage the pain?

You mentioned you drink plenty of filtered water. How much?

When…

@LAK it’s interesting that you mention he’s thin because his suboptimal high TSH did jump out at me and did make me wonder what may be going with thyroid function.

Although it’s not clinically high, a TSH above 2 uIU/ml may be something to pay attention to. This suggests the pituitary is sensing a need for more thyroid hormone (which raises TSH…

Hello @LAK – if you can please provide more context, we’ll be able to better guide you. Here are some guiding questions:

• How old is your son?
• Why were these tests done?
• Does he have any symptoms?
• Was he sick at the time of testing?
• What time were these tests taken and was he fasting overnight (only water)?
• Does he take any supplements, multi’s?…

Hi @naslam1603 – when looking at enzyme supplements, each unit reflects the enzyme’s ability to break down its specific substrate. So it helps you gauge the enzyme’s potency and effectiveness.

So for example, protease is an enzyme that helps us break down our proteins. Now to be able to quantify how well the enzyme works in testing conditions,…

@Annie – in an effort to cater to all learning needs, I’ve added this as a future project for my team. We have all the audio files separately, so I’m confident we can find a way to combine them into one big audio file. I’ll keep you updated on our progress and let you know once it’s ready.

Aside from the Gut Health Masterclass, is there…

@Annie if you have a normal sized tub, I’d use that over a plastic tub for the purpose of soaking in a bath.

The tub can be filled halfway with warm water, ensuring the legs and waist are fully submerged. Then, between 1/2 cup to 1 cup of Epsom salt is added. A soak for 10-15 minutes is all that’s needed. That’s it!

@Kkol was he sick at the time of testing? This pattern can indicate a possible viral infection. You can learn more about the different patterns HERE from the Interpreting Basic Blood Chemistry course.

Hi @sheetalramchandani1 – you can send an email to support@bbettermembership.com with the list of tests you need.

Also please provide your full name, email address, date of birth, billing & shipping address (if different) to open the requisition file. You can then order the tests directly with the lab.

Specify if you want the GI Map with or…

Hi @Kkol – In the Thyroid Balance course, I discuss possible reasons for high T4 and low TSH. You can find that lesson HERE. Besides blood testing, was imaging of the thyroid or pituitary ever done for your son?

Also watch the following lesson HERE which discusses possible reasons for nodules & goiters, and the possible…

@Kkol glad to see his results came back negative. Did you end up pursuing the consultation with the geneticist?

Since the doctor has given your son the green light to go on with life, I would encourage you to address the thyroid autoimmunity and not ignore it. Clearly something in his body or environment is creating a a more hypervigilant…
