Comprehensive Thyroid Health Care in Denver

​
Natural Thyroid Hormone Replacement
​
What is Natural Thyroid Hormone Replacement?
​
Natural thyroid hormone replacement therapy provides a combination of T3 and T4 hormones, mimicking the body's natural hormone production. Unlike conventional synthetic thyroid medications (such as levothyroxine, which contains only T4), desiccated thyroid extract (NDT) and compounded T3/T4 therapies may offer better symptom relief for some individuals.
​
Who Benefits from Natural Thyroid Hormone Therapy?
​
If you experience persistent hypothyroid symptoms despite being on levothyroxine, you may benefit from alternative thyroid hormone therapy.
​
Common symptoms include:
-
Fatigue and low energy
-
Weight gain and difficulty losing weight
-
Brain fog and difficulty concentrating
-
Hair thinning or hair loss
-
Cold intolerance and dry skin
At Metta Wellness NW, we evaluate both symptoms and lab results to determine the best course of action for long-term thyroid balance.

Natural Thyroid Support
​
What Are Natural Ways to Support Thyroid Health?
​
Supporting thyroid function naturally involves optimizing nutrition, reducing inflammation, and balancing hormone function. Our approach includes:
-
Nutrient Optimization – Essential minerals such as iodine, selenium, zinc, and iron are crucial for thyroid hormone production.
-
Gut Health & Inflammation Control – Poor gut health can lead to thyroid dysfunction and contribute to autoimmune thyroid disease.
-
Adrenal & Stress Management – Chronic stress disrupts the thyroid-adrenal axis, leading to hormonal imbalances and worsening symptoms.
-
Lifestyle Adjustments – Quality sleep, reduced toxin exposure, and blood sugar balance are key factors in thyroid regulation.
Does Diet Affect Thyroid Health?
​
Your diet plays a significant role in thyroid function and hormone balance. A thyroid-friendly diet includes:
-
Lean proteins, healthy fats, and fiber-rich vegetables
-
Iodine-rich foods (seaweed, fish, eggs)
-
Selenium sources (Brazil nuts, turkey, sunflower seeds)
On the other hand, gluten, processed foods, and excessive soy may negatively impact thyroid health, particularly for individuals with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis.
​
Comprehensive Thyroid Health Testing in Denver
What Tests Are Included in a Functional Thyroid Panel?
Unlike conventional testing that only evaluates TSH, our comprehensive functional thyroid panel includes:
-
TSH (Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone) – Regulates thyroid activity
-
Free T3 & Free T4 – Active thyroid hormones influencing metabolism
-
Reverse T3 (rT3) – Measures hormone conversion efficiency
-
Thyroid Antibodies (TPO & TgAb) – Screens for autoimmune thyroid conditions such as Hashimoto’s
