The phrase “root cause” is thrown around a lot in the functional medicine and nutrition world, but what does it really mean for you and your thyroid healing journey?
If you’re reading this, you’ve likely tried various approaches to feel better. You probably eat “healthier” than most of your friends, maybe you’ve been following all the thyroid diet tips, but somehow, your symptoms aren’t budging.
Sound familiar?
If so, it’s likely because you’re focusing on the symptom rather than the reason behind your thyroid condition – otherwise known as the infamous “root cause.”
What is the Root Cause of Thyroid Conditions?
The root cause is the underlying reason your thyroid condition happened in the first place. It’s not just a matter of bad luck or bad genes. There is a trigger – a factor that set off the chain reaction that led to your thyroid imbalance.
Something happened, and our job is to uncover what that was in your case. And that, my friend, is the most powerful step you can take when it comes to healing chronic conditions.
Understanding your root cause can shift your mindset from:
“I can’t do anything about this.”
to:
“If I know what triggered this, I can take action and heal.”
For most people, that root cause is still driving their symptoms, meaning it won’t go away until you recognize it and take steps to address it.
Why Conventional Medicine Doesn’t Always Work
Unfortunately, mainstream medicine often doesn’t focus on the root cause. It’s easier, and more cost-effective, to simply prescribe a pill and send you on your way. While medication like levothyroxine can help manage symptoms, it doesn’t address why your thyroid became underactive in the first place.
This is why so many people with thyroid conditions feel stuck, even after following their doctor’s advice. The real solution requires going deeper – taking the time to discover and address your personal triggers.
Taking Control of Your Thyroid Health
If you’re tired of feeling stuck and frustrated, it’s time to take matters into your own hands. This means advocating for yourself and digging into the root causes of your thyroid condition, which can vary but often include:
- Chronic inflammation
- Gut issues like leaky gut or dysbiosis
- Nervous system dysregulation
- Hormonal imbalances
- Detox pathway blockages
In BLOOM, my signature thyroid healing program, we work together to uncover your unique triggers and drivers, while also addressing the root causes we all share – reducing inflammation, supporting your gut, regulating your nervous system, and opening detox pathways.
