From the Desk of Dr. Akiba J. Green:
Dear Thyroid Sufferer,
My name is Dr. Akiba Green and I am a board certified chiropractic physician. I have owned my successful, private practice in Cornelius, North Carolina since 2003. I have taken over 460 hours of post graduate courses in functional diagnostic medicine, including, Autoimmune Physiology, Functional Blood Chemistry Analysis, Brain and Neurotransmitters, Functional Endocrinology, Autoimmune Thyroid and Advanced Thyroid Principles and Case Studies.
I consult with over 1000 doctors (www.lifechangingcare.com) around the country. I have personally trained with Dr. Michael L. Johnson, the author of the alternative medicine bestseller, “What Do You Do When the Medications Don’t Work?—A Non-Drug Treatment of Dizziness, Migraine Headaches, Fibromyalgia and Other Chronic Conditions”, Dr. Ronald Grisanti, director of Functional Medicine University and Dr. Datis Kharrazian the author of the revolutionary, breakthrough book “Why Do I Still Have Thyroid Symptoms, When All My Labs Are Normal?”
Some 20 million Americans are affected by thyroid disorders…..that’s 1 in 13 people! And more than half of those people are unaware they have a thyroid problem because it frequently goes undiagnosed…until it gets severe.
According to the National Women’s Health Information Center, one in eight women will experience a thyroid disorder during their lifetime. This fact may surprise you because you’ve probably never heard it explained to you fully. This is because most doctors are only vaguely familiar with thyroid disorders.
- Are you tired of running from doctor to doctor only to play “Russian Roulette” with different medications? “Here try this drug, that didn’t work? Try this one!”
- Are you tired of taking drugs that don’t fix the problem?
- Do you continue to struggle with chronic thyroid symptoms day in and day out?

Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis is an autoimmune disorder where your immune system attacks the thyroid. Patient’s that suffer from Hashimoto’s experience some or all of the above symptoms.
Let’s talk about the thyroid gland a bit.
The thyroid “runs” our metabolism. It is the “gas pedal” of the body.
Thyroid hormones have a direct effect on most organs, including the heart, which beats faster and harder under the influence of increased thyroid hormones (this is why heart problems can often accompany chronic thyroid problems in women, and perhaps why heart problems are more common in women under the age of 50).
The thyroid creates two hormones. T3 is the more biologically active hormone (it’s more important for cellular function), and in fact most of T4 (80%) is converted to T3 in the body’s peripheral tissues. So T4 is just a precursor for the more active hormone, T3.
One of the main problems in some thyroid disorders is that your body may have trouble converting T4 to T3 in your tissues (have you been checked for this?) This can create a deficiency of T3, disrupting the body’s ability to properly regulate metabolism…leading to specific symptoms.
There are some clinicians that are treating thyroid conditions with tyrosine or iodine. I do not recommend iodine or tyrosine in the treatment of thyroid conditions. According to renowned thyroid expert, Dr. Datis Kharriazian (author of the book, “Why Do I Still Have Thyroid Symptoms?”), using iodine to treat thyroid conditions is akin to throwing gasoline on a fire.
But there are new treatments now available…I am here to tell you there is NEW HOPE!
If you’re tired of chronic thyroid issues and you are worried about it getting worse, start learning now how your thyroid condition can be helped.
