The Lion Diet and Thyroid
Many people talk about having "thyroid problems" because they are unable to lose weight. Symptoms of low thyroid function (hypothyroidism) include cold hands and feet, hair loss, dry skin, and inability to lose weight despite calorie reduction and increased physical activity.

Studies have shown that there is a link between an under active thyroid gland and insulin function. Hence, an appropriate diet that supports thyroid function often involves an appropriate amount and type of carbohydrates.

As a person whose
Hauser Diet Typing resulted in Hauser Lion Diet Type physiology, you may be particularly susceptible to problems with hypothyroidism if you do not follow your appropriate Hauser Lion Diet because the Hauser Lion Diet physiology is one that requires very minimal amounts of carbohydrates and much more protein and fat.

Low thyroid function results from a number of causes, such as imbalance of hormones, (including cortisol, estrogen, and progesterone,) insulin resistance, and poor nutrition.

As you know, we at Hauser Diet Central believe that the better the quality of food you consume, the better chance you have of providing your body and its vital organs with the nutrients it needs to feel good, have energy, function efficiently, and avoid disease.

So first and foremost, we recommend that you throw away any processed, pre-packaged, pre-seasoned foods and start buying fresh!

Since people with Hauser Lion physiology have a propensity toward insulin resistance, carbohydrates are typically their problem foods which may in turn contribute to conditions such as hypothyroidism.

With over 15 years of clinical experience, we have developed a program that allows us to individualize diet plans for people who want to start on the road to wellness now.

We will show you how through testing, a diet system can be created to provide you with an individualized plan for weight loss, energy, and feeling better! The Hauser Diet.

The Hauser Lion Diet is the highest in protein and fat among the five Hauser Diets. Therefore, it is imperative that the Lion eat according to their Diet Type in order to help strengthen the thyroid gland.

Foods that will help Hauser Lion Diet Types strengthen their Thyroid function:
1. Meat: beef, chicken, pork, lamb
2. Eggs - whole, organic eggs!
3. Nuts and seeds: sunflower seeds, almonds, cashews, pistachios
4. Fats and oils: olive oil, canola oil, avocados, nitrate-free bacon
5. Green leafy vegetables: spinach, arugula, leaf lettuce

If you are not sure if you are a Hauser Lion Diet Type, and would like to know for certain, give us a call and set up an appointment for a consultation and Diet Typing or make an appointment online. You'll be glad you did! Remember, never underestimate the power of food - in feeling good and keeping your body functioning the way it should!
