ANTI-THROID EFFECTS OF PUFAS (POLYUNSATURATED FATS) AND HERBS
Polyunsaturated fats (PUFA) suppress thyroid signaling. PUFAs suppress thyroid hormone levels and cause weight gain. Inhibiting the thyroid slows the metabolism. The highPUFA diet promoted weight gain: it caused excess weight to be retained at a l ower calorie intake. This is consistent with reduced...

Summary: | Polyunsaturated fats (PUFA) suppress thyroid signaling. PUFAs suppress thyroid
hormone levels and cause weight gain. Inhibiting the thyroid slows the metabolism. The highPUFA
diet promoted weight gain: it caused excess weight to be retained at a l ower calorie
intake. This is consistent with reduced thyroid activity. |
