Near-infrared light therapy eliminates the need for thyroid meds in nearly half of patients.
→ Fifteen patients with autoimmune thyroiditis had ten sessions of light therapy
→ Nine months later, seven patients required no medication (LT4)
→ Med needs dropped about 60% on average
→ Thyroid antibodies (TPOAb) dropped by 40%
→ The echogenicity index improved by over 20%
The echogenicity index measures how bright thyroid tissue appears on ultrasound. The echogenicity index is linked to autoimmune activity. In thyroiditis, particularly Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, thyroid tissue often becomes hypoechoic (darker) than surrounding tissues, indicating inflammation, fibrosis, and lymphocytic infiltration.
Note: This has to be carefully dosed with specific equipment.
“We noted all patients’ reduced T4 dosage needs, including 7 (47%) who did not require any T4 through the 9-month follow-up...TPOAb levels also decreased...We did observe a post-treatment increase in the echogenicity index... The preliminary results indicate that light therapy promotes the improvement of thyroid function, as patients experienced a decreased need for thyroid medication, a reduction in TPOAb levels, and an increase in parenchymal echogenicity.”
@CoachDanCole_ Excessive NO interferes with the mitochondria's ability to use oxygen, shifting cells away from efficient oxidative metabolism and toward greater reliance on glycolysis.
That’s not a state of health
Yes, some level of NO is imp. but more is harmful.
They took the blood of a patient who died from endotoxemia and injected it to rats, the endotoxin killed 100% of them.
Then they took that blood, filtered it with activated charcoal and injected it into rats.
NONE of them died.
Activated charcoal binds and deactivates LPS.
