How to Control Your Metabolism by Thyroid & Growth Hormone

  • Опубликовано: 22 май 2024
  • This episode I discuss metabolism and how our thyroid hormone and growth hormone control our metabolism. I also clarify that metabolism isn't just about burning energy, it’s about converting energy from different sources into fuels for building and repairing our tissues such as muscle, brain, and tendons and mobilizing energy from body fat storage. I discuss the role of iodine, selenium, and salt for thyroid health, and how specific exercise protocols, amino acids and temperature can dramatically shift levels of growth hormone release in waking and in sleep. I also describe the current landscape of prescription compounds, peptides and other factors for changing levels of thyroid and growth hormone, and some of their risks. Throughout the episode, mechanism and tools grounded in specific mechanisms are discussed. Thank you for your interest in science!

If you can include discussion on “reverse dieting”, that’d be especially great. I’m in the first stage of reverse dieting, which is increasing my total caloric intake with focus on proper macronutrient balance as a nutritional approach to balancing my not-yet-perimenopausal hormones with the eventual goal of fat loss.

Few mainstream American doctors will advise you on how to fix your health naturally. Hopefully this does a 180 in the next decade😢Dr. Huberman is helping to turn the ship around 🙏

By and large, the most common hypothyroid condition is Hashimoto's. However, as wonderful as it would be to be able to fix Hashi's through diet alone (and many people tout that it is possible), Hashimoto's is an autoimmune condition. So it's not that Hashi's patients are low in something. Their own bodies are attacking their thyroid tissue. There are things that can help, and there are also naturally derived medications, as opposed to synthetic, but medication is a godsend for those with an actual thyroid autoimmune disorder (me included).

Not one of my specialists explained to me how I got hashimotos, or how my thyroid hormone should be working. I asked my first doctor what the thyroid disease was, and his response was completely unprofessional. He said, "Lets put it this way, you can gain weight just by looking at food". I can tell you that I left completely scared, confused and in tears. You have explained in detail about the thyroid, more than my endocrinologists ever have.

    Hi professor Huberman, just informing you that I am a 42-yo female, overall healthy, healthy and stable weight, since 7 years I have been doing a clean-food low-carb/keto diet (under 100 g carbs/day, occasionally cycled out around 100 - 150 g/day) combined with intermitent fasting (at least 18 hours of daily fasting). 14 years ago have been diagnosed with Hashimoto´s, since childhood suffering with multiple food and environmental allergies, atopic dermatitis. Since on the low-carb + IF, all health issues significantly improved: all allergies gone, atopic dermatitis gone, Hashimoto´s improving (aTPO and aTG low level now) and currently categorized as subclinical, good quality hair/nails/skin, good sleep, feeling no hunger, no cravings, no exhaustion, tons of energy, cognitively superb. Since on low-carb, my menstrual cycles are perfectly healthy, fairly regular, mild flow, mild to no pain, every cycle ovulating (had been on birth-control for 20 years before the low-carb). So in my case, the intervention works.

    Thank you so much for all you do!!
    I’m a 64 year old woman and I was very fit most of my life. I’m a holistic nutritionist and a certified yoga teacher. I lost my energy at menopause when I was 52. I’ve been struggling to piece together a recipe to regain my energy. I’ve tried many different ways of eating and exercising over the decades and most recently did keto eating less than 16grams of sugar per day. I believe it really messed up my metabolism because when I went back to eating normally I gained the 14 lbs I lost back and another 6 lbs on top of that. Your information has been so enlightening for me. Many of the beneficial things to do have been instinct for me and I can say that I’ve had the experience of not doing some of those things for these last 12 years plus doing keto and see the detrimental effects as a result. I’ll be putting some of those things back into my life. I believe I can be fit and healthy while I’m on this planet and you are instrumental in helping me do that.

    Hey Doc! Just finished this episode, thanks again for the wisdom! May I please ask you to cover 2 things eventually as I’m sure I’m not alone in this: 1) A further dive into sleep apnea, especially for those of us who have tried weight loss and despite reaching a healthy weight-to-body composition ratio, and the effects of the CNS on sleep apnea as this is something not enough specialists out there have yet mastered. Also, 2) why our body shivers (kind of like when you have a surge of relief for a quick 1-2sec after urinating, sorry for the example but best thing I can think of) when we take a REALLY deep breath; I usually take the breath in and once I can’t take in anymore, as soon as I start breathing out, I get that shiver almost 99% of the time. I have a history of anxiety/panic so the logical presumption here is that the body is just not used to so much oxygen as it has been used to being tense/reduced oxygen intake? Could this deep breathing exercise be used for addressing traumas? Thanks! 🤙🤙

I definitely feel it works, if I wasn't drinking coffee, wasn't intermittent fasting, wouldn't have a need, enough salt in my food. Some people drink lemon and salt water, I know they had a machine that dispensed that at Twitter headquarters, I think the acid suppresses hunger, gives you something, but again, for those who have decided that this schedule of eating and caffeine works for them, def not for generally anyone!

    Prof. Huberman
    Since around 2001, I have suffered with increasing lethargy, procrastination, tiredness and find it difficult to focus, concentrate and learn that has led to deep frustrations.
    I exercise, do not take drugs, or smoke, or eat junk food, consume very little alcohol, or take any prescription drugs apart from one, lansoprazole to control acid reflux.
    My medical doctor prescribed 30mg lansoprazole a day that I have been taking for at least two decades. It could just be a coincidence, but the above symptoms appear to coincide with taking lansoprazole.
    My question: Could “lansoprazole” have any side effects on my brain and/or gut biome that would cause or contribute to the above symptoms?
