In this video, Dr. Justin discusses how stress hormones like cortisol can affect the conversion of T4 (Thyroxine) to T3 (Triiodothyronine) in the body and how this can impact thyroid function. Cortisol is an anti-inflammatory stress hormone used to manage inflammation caused by stress. However, chronic high or low levels of cortisol can also affect the conversion of T4 to T3, as the body does not want to increase metabolism when stressed or inflamed. Additionally, gut health and nutrient absorption are critical factors in thyroid function, as specific gut issues like SIBO and dysbiosis can impact the assimilation of necessary nutrients.

Dr. Justin emphasizes the importance of taking a comprehensive approach to understanding thyroid function. Many conventional doctors may need help understanding underlying issues because they only focus on the thyroid itself rather than looking at the whole body. Functional medicine takes a more holistic approach to understand the body's overall function and aims to catch problems early by addressing underlying systems and imbalances. By using more sensitive metrics for labs, functional medicine doctors can identify deviations from the operating range earlier, preventing patients from getting sicker and having more problems. Therefore, when dealing with thyroid issues, it is essential to look at the big picture and understand how different systems in the body interact.
