This lecture discusses the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle' work, the Poetics, focusing on his views on what by his time had come to be called "problems" (problemata) mainly of criticism and their "solutions" (luseis) when it comes to poetry, particularly epic poetry. Aristotle's view is that many of these can be addressed by looking carefully at the language and the meanings in passages or compositions that are being criticized.

Roughly 80% of hypothyroid or low thyroid patients say that they have trouble losing weight.

It’s for this reason, that they are often attracted to dangerous diets that promise rapid weight loss.

Unfortunately for them, instead of rapid weight loss, they are often met with thyroid damage, metabolic damage, and short-lived changes on the scale that revert back to normal the second they stop. 

Which is why today I’m going to talk about the most powerful weight loss treatments that exist for thyroid patients.

If you are looking to lose weight SAFELY while ensuring that your weight won’t just come right back on the second you stop, these are for you: 

1. Prolonged fasting (1-4 days)
Fasting is hands down the cheapest and most reliable way to lose weight. While it is a form of calorie restriction, it works better than daily calorie restriction for patients with thyroid dysfunction (see the video for more info as to why). 

2. Strategically decrease carbohydrate intake
Your thyroid needs carbohydrates, at least 100 grams per day, but you can strategically reduce your carb intake to push out water weight and nudge the scale downward. This is great if you need to rapidly lose some weight for something like a wedding. But given their importance for daily thyroid function, carb cycling works better than long-term low carb diets. 

3. Zone-2 training
Zone-2 training promote more fat burn than any other level of exercise and it’s perfect for thyroid patients because it’s lower in intensity than HIIT. This means better compliance, more fat loss, and less fatigue. 

4. T3 thyroid medication
T3 thyroid medication is by far the most powerful thyroid hormone available and it also happens to be the best for weight loss. The only problem? It’s hard to get. 
If you can’t get T3 then opt for T2 instead which is available over the counter and comes in cream and capsule form. 

5. GLP-1 agonists
I’m not a huge fan of GLP-1 agonists in general, but there’s no question that they do work and there may be a situation where using them makes sense. 

That said, given their significant side effect profile, they should be reserved for when all other treatments have failed! 

Don’t forget that a healthy diet is part of long-term weight loss and if you need help with that, check out this video: https://youtu.be/5seJiR5aCAM?si=P3UkDO9_2CaL8jaQ

Revisit timeless insights from Alberto Savoia, Google’s first engineering director and the driving force behind the launch of AdWords, in this re-released 2019 ETL episode. As the creator of “pretotyping” and author of The Right It, Savoia tackles one of innovation’s greatest challenges: ensuring you’re building a product the market truly wants. With 80% of innovations failing—even when executed competently—Savoia reframes success as not only building it right, but first building the right “it.” This episode offers powerful strategies for entrepreneurs, product managers, and innovators looking to test ideas quickly and minimize risk in today’s rapidly changing business landscape.

The episode first aired on March 13, 2019

We need to be brave enough to face our problems and solve them in a godly manner. We need to be strong enough to stand and fulfill our responsibilities despite many challenges in life. We need prayer, wisdom, and godly advice to solve life's problems.  

Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:6-7)

I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
(Philippians 4:13)

He that handleth a matter wisely shall find good: and whoso trusteth in the LORD, happy is he.
(Proverbs 16:20)

Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counsellors there is safety.
(Proverbs 11:14)

Do you feel like your thyroid is taking over your life? Are you suffering from symptoms like weight gain, hair loss, fatigue, brain fog, or mood swings? If so, you aren’t alone. 

In fact, millions of other thyroid patients in the United States and around the world suffer from the same issues. And these issues persist even in the face of normal treatment with thyroid medication!

The question is: what can you do about it?

That’s exactly what this podcast is about.

I’m Dr. Westin Childs (D.O.) a former practicing osteopathic physician and my goal is to help thyroid patients get back to feeling 100%. 

Well, I actually have 2 goals:

#1. The first is to help 1 million thyroid patients directly or indirectly. 

And #2. To create the most comprehensive and helpful thyroid resource for thyroid patients on the internet. 

I know just how debilitating thyroid disease can be and I also know that it is possible to take control of your life. 

One of the biggest problems with thyroid management is that we just don’t talk about it enough. 

This podcast changes that. 

We are going to discuss all sorts of topics ranging from thyroid management, the use of less talked about thyroid medications, opinions on emerging treatments and therapies from leading experts, the use of natural therapies and how they fit into the conventional model, and so much more. 

If you want more information aside from the standard thyroid treatment of TSH and levothyroxine then this is the place for you. 

We won’t just stop at your thyroid, either. 

Other topics that are relevant and important to thyroid function will be discussed including things like hormone balance, menopause, testosterone replacement therapy, and weight loss therapies. 

If something helps you to better manage your thyroid, improve your symptoms, lose weight, or balance your hormones then it’s something I want to include.
