Using herbs and other natural medicines to treat thyroid disorders

A problem with an overactive thyroid gland, that is, when too much hormone is released, often leads to the appearance of symptoms of a nervous disorder: anxiety, palpitations, sweating, poor sleep. Therefore, it is very important to relax, act in harmony with oneself, restore mental balance, which will have a positive effect on the state of the thyroid gland. She is easily vulnerable and suffers from a bad mood. Therefore, it is so important to fight your own despondency, you need to be imbued with faith and hope for healing.

Nervous excitement is well removed: valerian, azure cyanosis, erythematosus, snakeheads, heather, adonis, hyssop, hawthorn. Other plants are also useful: calendula, oregano, elecampane, linden, mint, yarrow, chamomile, dill, hops, thyme, sage, rose hips, which are taken as infusions in the form of tea in any combination at the rate of 1 tbsp. l. a mixture of herbs for 1 cup of boiling water.

Of course, an important point in the treatment of thyrotoxicosis is to strengthen the body's immunity. This is helped by lemon juice - 1 tsp. twice a day, in the morning on an empty stomach and before bedtime. In addition, a mixture of 1 tsp is recommended. apple cider vinegar, 1 tsp. honey in a glass of water with the addition of 1 drop of Lugol's solution - 1 time per day after meals.

A tincture from the leaves of room geranium helps to cure the disease, it does not matter which geranium leaves you take - red or white. They (as many as possible) must be put into a jar and filled with vodka. After 30 days of infusion in the dark, take a tincture of 1 tbsp. l. three times per day. The treatment takes up to 1 liter of tincture.

It is more difficult to prepare and use a nutty drink from green fresh or dry leaves and peels of walnuts or green fruits in the stage of waxy ripeness. Take 1 glass of this nut medicine, 1 glass of sugar and 3 liters of whey. All this has been insisted for two weeks. Drink 1 tablespoon three times a day.

We often recommend that patients take 3 drops of iodine per half a glass of milk for three weeks, take a break for 1-2 weeks and then continue treatment, which helps with both insufficient and excess iodine in the thyroid gland. In addition, we recommend taking limited doses of anticancer herbal poisons such as hemlock, aconite and fly agaric every three weeks, alternating their intake one after the other.

Well established in the treatment of thyroid celandine. The herb with flowers and celandine pods is insisted in 70% alcohol for two weeks. After that, they drink the infusion in the morning on an empty stomach, starting with 3 drops, adding 2 drops daily, bringing up to 16 drops a week. After a month of taking the medication, a break is made for 7-10 days and then the procedure continues. It should be noted that the medicine is best drunk with milk or whey.

Pay attention to two very important points that will help you treat the disease: what you eat and what you wear. It can be red berries, fruits, juices. It is especially useful to eat such foods for those who have an underactive thyroid gland. And with excessive activity of the thyroid gland, it is useful to eat blue and green foods. Accordingly, the color of the clothes should be the same, i.e. red, green or blue. The treatment is especially active during those 2-3 days when the Moon is in the sign of Taurus. People with high blood pressure should also eat less red foods, but in the days of Taurus, the effect of red is weakened, therefore, for hypertensive people, red foods are less harmful during this period.

Sea air and seafood are very beneficial for thyroid healing. For its treatment, boiled rice is mixed equally with seaweed and squid meat and used for food in a slightly boiled and fried form. Do not be tempted by the desire to sunbathe, as any radiation is harmful to the thyroid gland. It is even better to wear red scarves or scarves around your neck.

In the old days, with goiter, they drank tea from raspberry leaves and branches for months. Studies have found that raspberries contain plant hormones that help with goiter. Do not forget that herbs act softly and slowly, so they have to be used for a long time - for months and years.

To treat the thyroid gland, you can use pork fat, which is applied with a bandage overnight to the thyroid area. The top is covered with cellophane or parchment and tied with an old woolen scarf. Such compresses should be done within a month and better in winter, because then fat is easier to buy, and if the skin is irritated, you can cover your neck with a scarf.

In the old days, from the purest propolis taken from the upper part of the hive, small tablets were made from an apiary located far from the village and given to the patient every day for three months on an empty stomach in the morning.

As for the questions often asked by patients about whether or not to drink coffee with thyroid disease, this should be decided based on the state of the disease and, above all, the nervous system. If you have symptoms of a nervous disorder, you have to relieve nervous excitement by various means, then coffee will only increase the manifestation of the disease, because it has a tonic effect, excites the nervous system and, first of all, the cerebral cortex. Milk binds caffeine and weakens its tonic effect. The smell of brewed coffee even calms the nervous system. Coffee stimulates the heart, but blood pressure rises slightly. With hypertension or arrhythmias, drinking coffee is not recommended.

Patients with gastric ulcer and duodenal ulcer should not drink coffee, especially in the acute stage, as well as with gastritis with normal and increased secretion of gastric juice, with cholecystitis, hepatitis and liver cirrhosis. It is better to refrain from drinking coffee for those who are simultaneously affected by the liver and biliary tract, stomach and intestines and who suffer from chronic pancreatitis.

Coffee with milk is useful for diseases such as chronic gastritis with secretory insufficiency, chronic colitis, enteritis in the stage of persistent remission. Coffee can actively interact with drugs, it enhances and accelerates the analgesic effect of analgin, and the therapeutic effect of iron preparations (ferrocal, ferroplex), on the contrary, decreases, since their absorption is limited.

We wish you good luck and stay healthy!
