HYPERTHYROIDISM AND HOW IT CAN BE TREATED THROUGH WEIGHT TRAINING (CONTINUATION OF THYROID)

A person who says "I eat anything and everything and still don't put on weight(FAT)" is considered to be a fad these days , irrespective of his/her functional ability.
           Many a time this can be a hormonal issue especially if a person is suffering with symptoms like
⚫Hair loss
⚫Weight loss
⚫Fatigue
⚫Depression
⚫Irregular menstrual cycle
⚫Bone loss(Osteoporosis)

These are the symptoms of Hyperthyroidism .

The thyroid problem can broadly be divided into two 1) HYPOTHYROIDISM
                               2) HYPERTHYROIDISM
* I have explained the concept of hypothyroidism in my previous blog.

WHAT IS HYPERTHYROIDISM???
Hyperthyroidism is a condition of the thyroid . Hyperthyroidism occurs when the thyroid makes too much of T4 and T3 (or) both hormones . This creates an excessive high metabolic state , you may experience the symptoms mentioned above or even a Rapid heart rate , hand tremors, elevated blood pressure .

HOW WEIGHT TRAINING AND A PROPER DIET CAN HELP???
For many this can be an overlooked topic , because "LOOKING THIN" is the new fashion , irrespective of the hindrance in their functional ability (That hindrance is coped through technology in this era) hence they never realise where the hindrance has actually started and where their functional ability is going for a toss. Ex: You will never know if you can still squat until and unless you find a washroom with only the "INDIAN COMMODE".
                                       Most of the people prefer the easy way round like "JUST POPPING A PILL" . Especially for problems like Hyperthyroidism most of the health institutes prescribe medicines like Calcium, vitamin D tablets.
                    The question raised here is "IF ALL THESE MICRONUTRIENTS CAN BE FOUND IN THE NATURAL FOODS, WHY MEDICINES ?
                        In a condition like hyperthyroidism it is the liver that breaks down the fat circulating in your body. So before you think of buying the tablets to pop in your mouth , Its the eating habits and exercise that has to be implemented in its correct form , for the liver to function in its proper way.

1)A PROPER DIET CAN HELP MAINTAIN THE LIVER FUNCTION BETTER.
A diet consisting of fresh fruits and vegetables,milk and eggs can help the liver function properly and maintain the homeostasis of the body.

2)PROBLEMS LIKE OSTEOPOROSIS CAN BE TREATED THROUGH WEIGHT TRAINING 
In a condition like hyperthyroidism people tend to have weak and brittle bones a condition called osteoporosis. Progressive resistance training is an excellent way to wave off this problem.

3)PROGRESSIVE RESISTANCE TRAINING HELPS IN GAINING WEIGHT .
Progressive resistance training accelerates the recovery of skeletal muscle function and promotes weight gain(Muscle mass). The workout shouldn't be very long , it has to be short and intense and not more than twice or thrice a week.

Being skinny with a hindrance in functional ability can be solved through progressive resistance training and a proper diet(The one stated above) . Rather than getting medication which only plays a placebo effect.
