When you have an underactive thyroid rigorous exercise is not the best way to go because it can actually increase inflammation causing you to hold on to unwanted weight. Your body will respond better with low impact activities like rebounding, walkin...

One of the BEST purchases I have ever made. This tool was created to help with pain and inflammation but it also is the only way to actually get rid of cellulite. Creams and lotions will only minimize the appearance. This tool will breaks up fascia t...

I would get this done at the spa during a facial and it would take any breakouts away within a day or two, I have used this for years now and I won't be without it. It kills the bacteria in the blemish (even cystic acne). I also love the hair attachm...

This is the purchase with the biggest impact. I don't go a day without using my sauna. If you are carrying around inflammation, unwanted weight, joint pain you NEED to be using an infrared sauna. I chose this brand after a tremendous amount of resear...

Castor oil is very healing but you want to make sure it's organic, unrefined, and hexane free. Also make sure the packs that you use are organic cotton or flannel. I personally like to use it over the liver for detoxing and over the abdomen to help w...

This is part of my morning routine, I have had these for years and I love the stretch and the back cracks I get. The muscle aches that come with an underactive thyroid this gives me so much relief and it only takes a minute.

Having a sluggish thyroid, my sleep was never consistent. On a good week, I’d get two, maybe three solid nights of rest, and the rest was a mix of tossing, turning, and waking up feeling like I hadn’t slept at all. Insomnia became my “normal,” and it...

Chlorophyll has a variety of benefits, I didn't notice how much of a difference this made in my skin and hair until I stopped taking it. My hair is fuller, my skin heals better (cuts and scrapes usually take forever to heal) it also helps with detoxi...

I finally found a protein powder with clean ingredients, tastes delicious, no chalky texture and mixes easily. I love all the flavors but I suggest the vanilla or maple cinnamon.

Nothing and I mean nothing works on muscle and joint pain like Deep Blue Rub. I always have a back up tube, I take it traveling. With hypothyroidism comes flare ups which means there are days where my entire body aches.

Adding to all the other fun health issues that come with hypothyroidism, insomnia is another one. We all know that our body heals when we sleep and lack of sleep can cause an abundance of health issues and it's not great for the beauty routine either...

Some say coffee is good for you some say it's bad for your thyroid, I say no one is going to make me give up my coffee. I did set out on a search for a healthier option because most coffee is filled with mold and toxic chemicals. BulletProof is free ...

The best sugar alternative you will find. Monkfruit (in my humble opinion) is the closest to sugar in taste. I use it for my coffee or anything else I would use sugar in. You don't need much and will not impact your blood sugar. I think it tastes bet...

This was a recent purchase, I have been breaking out more than usual and I saw an ad for this. I will say, it works FAST, like over night I noticed a difference. I like it because it doesn't leave your skin dried out like many blemish treatments do.
