Hashimoto’s Crash

00:00:00
The most common conversations that i have with my hashimoto's patients
00:00:07
and that is the wonderment of the patient going and it's just it's crazy you know i have a good day or two
00:00:15
and then i go out and i do this and i go out and i clean the house and then i go out shopping and then i do my
00:00:21
exercise at the gym and then boom i hit the wall and and i just crash and sometimes
00:00:30
one of the patients i was talking to yesterday says sometimes i crash for a couple hours sometimes i crash for a
00:00:35
couple of days and sometimes they crash for three weeks so that so what we call that
00:00:41
is a person's metabolic capacity is low meaning that when
00:00:52
your physiology is working normally whatever that is today but normally is your blood sugar's good
00:00:59
you're getting good oxygen you don't you know you there's no inflammation going on you
00:01:04
know your nutrients are good you're absorbing your foods so you're getting good
00:01:08
nutrients and you're feeling good and you're sleeping good and you're getting a little exercise
00:01:12
and all that type of stuff you have better substrates going to your
00:01:22
cells so you have better like you know you have better you have minerals you have vitamins you
00:01:28
have all that stuff getting to your cells basically okay and your cells need them because in
00:01:33
your cells there's these little organelles little factories called mitochondria and
00:01:38
these guys make energy and they need a lot of that stuff to make energy they need oxygen they need
00:01:43
sugar they need all these different things they need certain like b vitamins and
00:01:47
they need a lot of different things called enzymes coenzymes things of that nature
00:01:52
and then they make energy when you crash it's because that mitochondria is just like instead of that much
00:02:02
substrate it's got that much okay and and this is very common with hashimoto's because there are a lot of
00:02:09
things that occur to dampen that like for example inflammation
00:02:14
alone will neutralize your cells it'll use it'll neutral it'll it'll damage the cell
00:02:21
walls of all of your cells and we now also know that it will actually create an inflammatory response on the
00:02:31
cell on the wall of the mitochondria here's your cell here's this tiny little mitochondria in
00:02:36
fact you have lots of them in there and then and then the outside wall of that mitochondria
00:02:42
actually gets inflamed and then that creates an inability of nutrients to get in and out
00:02:47
and so when you have hashimoto's as most of you know it's a highly inflammatory disease in its most aggressive state
00:02:55
okay not all of you are in that inflamed state but there are other things that will
00:03:00
cause even those who are not in that inflamed state to have that one of them will be a lack of oxygen okay so if you
00:03:08
have for example if you have uh sleep apnea okay if you have sleep apnea and and
00:03:16
you're not getting enough oxygen into the cells then the cell becomes damaged and the cell
00:03:23
becomes uh the immune response to the cell becomes damaged to get the inflammation
00:03:28
the mitochondria doesn't work and um and and so uh and in the end if i went through all
00:03:36
of the things that caused that that added up to cause your cell to not be able to
00:03:41
respond when you wanted to when you want to use all that energy
00:03:47
um i would be here for quite some time because there's like 39 different things and i those of you
00:03:54
watch this a lot i do use the term 39 a lot because there are 39 different things okay that
00:03:59
we know of maybe next year it'll be 42 i don't know where right now we know about of 39
00:04:04
and then and so so underlying all that is usually inflammation and and i think the point that i wanted
00:04:11
to make here was the the two biggest underlying deficits that
00:04:19
causes lack of oxygen and despite the fact that there's you know
00:04:25
38 other different ones and glutathione lack of glutathione now a lot of people know glutathione they look it up and
00:04:34
they go glutathione it's supposed to do this it's supposed to do that it's pretty awesome stuff for certain things
00:04:40
and so glutathione is known i believe i'm correct on this it's known
00:04:47
as the most powerful antioxidant that science is aware of at this current
00:04:54
date and time and where is glutathione come from it comes from us
00:05:00
it's made in our cells it's supposed to be made in every cell see the connection every cell
00:05:07
needs it okay it's also massively made in the liver it's responsible for a lot of the detoxification from in the liver
00:05:15
that you're familiar with like glutathione is what stops you from having chemical sensitivities for those
00:05:22
who have it you don't have enough glutathione okay because glutathione
00:05:28
for example let's say you walk by a perfume counter at macy's and the next thing you know
00:05:32
um you go oh i don't feel so good or you're walking by you know some uh laundry you know some
00:05:40
some commercial laundry place and and and that smell comes out with all the chemicals and you're like man i
00:05:45
gotta walk on the outside street those are chemicals okay those are little particles they
00:05:51
travel through the air they're going through your lungs they go into your nostrils and your lungs and the
00:05:56
glutathione in your system is literally here's what it does
00:06:01
here comes the chemical here and here's what the glue diet does it grabs it and you're not going to be
00:06:06
able to see me do this but yeah it literally kills it i'm like slamming it against my desk you know
00:06:11
like that's what glutathione does it's it it's this massive antioxidant antioxidants work the ones that are good
00:06:22
they work but they're expensive they're they're hard to produce they're they're hard to replicate so
00:06:28
because of the production process they're hard they're expensive like the ones i use
00:06:33
are expensive so so i use them and i use them a lot but
00:06:38
you know they work and here's the thing you cannot have autoimmunity i believe i'm correct on this okay so if
00:06:44
one of my mentors is watching this and you see that i'm not correct call me and tell me
00:06:49
okay but i don't think you can get my understanding that you cannot chemically get autoimmunity
00:06:55
if you have enough glutathione because glutathione works with something else in your system to dampen
00:07:03
immune responses as well as create that energy by by killing
00:07:11
any of those oxidative inflammatory stresses before they become a problem and whether i don't know whether it's
00:07:19
the chicken or the egg there's autoimmunity deplete your glutathione or have you already depleted your
00:07:23
glutathione you get autoimmunity the suggestion is the suggestion is you've already
00:07:28
depleted your glutathione but i don't see why it wouldn't go both ways but the bottom line is
00:07:32
if you have autoimmunity you're gonna have low glutathione and and and and i think that's the bigger
00:07:38
the bigger reason for this crash uh relative to uh relative to people crashing now
00:07:46
i i'm i'm gonna say don't go out there and buy a ton of glutathione and take it and then if it doesn't
00:07:51
prevent your crash start throwing you know things at the at the youtube channel here that i'm on
00:07:57
because it depends on how many different triggers you have that are killing your metabolic capacity um to be
00:08:08
able to uh to be able to have that energy okay and and and and to cause you to crash so
00:08:15
if you have a lot of them you take the you you take the glutathione and and
00:08:20
it it may not even feel like it's doing anything or you may have to dose it up so much you go like oh my god like i
00:08:27
it's so expensive i'm not going to do this so i mean there's variations on that that
00:08:31
might help if you want to you know well i'm not going to get in that because i don't want to start telling
00:08:36
you how to dose online for all the obvious reasons so um but that's those are things those are
00:08:43
the things that are causing you to crash basically basically you crash because there's too
00:08:47
much pressure on those mitochondria from so many different areas now you put a demand on them it's just
00:08:51
not there they're just not they're not getting the substrates maybe you're not maybe you're not
00:08:56
maybe you're not absorbing your nutrients maybe you're not breaking them down
00:08:59
you know maybe you're not eating them uh yeah there's just there's so many things but the big ones are oxygen and
00:09:05
glutathione the big big big ones are oxygen and glutathione and you just
00:09:09
you deplete them like okay i get i'm having a good day you go out you just like bomb it out and
00:09:15
the next thing you know you're you're on the floor all your pains come back everything is
00:09:18
bad this is the reason why that happens is ext and and that it is extremely common in fact
00:09:26
it's almost uh it's almost a cardinal symptom for just autoimmune patients in general
00:09:32
and and kind of a gauge of the severity of it as you'll see as time goes on if you're
00:09:37
not doing anything about it you'll get you'll get more crashes more frequently they'll they'll be worse you'll be
00:09:43
down for longer periods of time but that's been something that's been coming up a
00:09:49
lot lately here when i'm talking to patients so i thought it would be some good data to
00:09:53
put out for you okay so that's it talk to you again you
