Also see: The effect of raw carrot on serum lipids and colon function The Cholesterol and Thyroid Connection In the 1930′s accurate diagnosis [of hypothyroidism] was made by evaluating a variety of indications, including basal oxygen consumption, serum cholesterol level, pulse rate, temperature, carotenemia, bowel function, and quality of hair and skin. -Ray Peat, PhD [...]
Energy depletion itself is an excitatory state, that calls for increased fuel and oxygen. But when cells are exposed to PUFA, their ability to use glucose is blocked, increasing their exposure to the fats. Saturated fats activate the pyruvate dehydrogenase enzyme that is essential for the efficient use of glucose, while PUFA block it. -Ray Peat, [...]
Also see: Hypothyroidism, Gout, and Uric Acid Quotes by Ray Peat, PhD: “Lipid peroxidation is involved in the degenerative diseases, and many publications argue that fructose increases it, despite the fact that it can increase the production of uric acid, which is a major component of our endogenous antioxidant system (e.g., Waring, et al., 2003).” “One of [...]

Giordano N, Santacroce C, Mattii G, Geraci S, Amendola A, Gennari C. OBJECTIVE: A significant correlation between thyroid function and purine nucleotide metabolism has been established in hypothyroidism. On the contrary, the relationship between hyperthyroidism and [...]
