Thyroid issues affect millions of people, and lead to weight gain or loss, constipation, fatigue, joint pain, libido loss, headaches, dizziness, ear ringing, hair loss, brittle nails, fatigue, cold sensitivity, insomnia, dry skin, cold feet and hands, infections, hoarse voice, and more.
Studies have shown that even 65% of the American population is overweight, and 27% of these people are obese.
Yet, these facts are alarming as they are directly related to the problems with the thyroid, as especially in women with hypothyroid disorders.
Coconut oil is saturated fat, meaning that it is stable and does not experience damage due to oxidation stress. Namely, this healthy oil prevents the conversion and processing of T3 and T4 hormones, needs no enzyme stress, and it does not need to be broken down with enzymes.

The liver experiences the oxidation damage and damage from rancid oils, conversions from T4 to T3, the elimination of long chain fats and the switch from medium chain fats (of coconut) can rebuild cell membranes and produce more enzymes.
Therefore, researchers recommend the intake of more polyunsaturated fats such as coconut oil, as it has been found to be extremely beneficial in the treatment of thyroid issues.
