Pureveen

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sarah M., 63 "Down 17 pounds and I didn't change a single thing about how I eat. I'd tried every diet, every supplement, every thyroid group recommendation for two years. Nothing touched the weight until Pureveen. I finally understand why nothing worked before." ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Linda K., 48 "I was eating less than 1,200 calories and still gaining. My doctor kept saying my labs were perfect. Three mont

I saw the photo my daughter took at Sophie's birthday party and I had to ask her to delete it. The woman standing in the background wasn't me. Swollen. Puffy. Exhausted-looking even though I was smiling. I'm 57. That woman in the photo is what six years of "your labs are normal" has done to me. Three days later, my daughter said the words I'd been dreading since I watched my own mother disappear.

I saw a statistic that made me sick. Women with Hashimoto's are 17 times more likely to die from a heart attack before 70 than a normal woman the same age. Not twice as likely. Not 5 times. 17. I didn't believe it when I read it. I'd been on Levothyroxine for 14 years and not one doctor had ever mentioned my heart. But here's the truth. Your thyroid doctor runs thyroid tests. Your heart doctor run

I was in line at the grocery store buying chicken breasts and a bag of spinach when the woman in front of me asked the cashier if they happened to know of anyone hiring in town. She didn't ask casually. She asked the way you ask when you've been asking the same question at every counter, every front desk, every pharmacy, every bakery you've walked into for two months. Her voice was steady but her

I took a shower this morning. And if you have hashi’s or hypo... you know exactly what I mean. Because for the last eight years, it was always such an achievement. It's not just a shower. It's a calculation. One you run before you even open your eyes in the morning. How long will it take. What I have to do after. Whether I have enough in the tank to make it through the hair dryer. I used to give m

I ran into my aunt at a family dinner and didn't even recognize her. She'd lost so much weight. She has hypothyroidism like me. So I asked her what she was doing. She pulled out her phone and showed me a Reddit thread that explained something I'd never heard before. 71% of women with thyroid problems have a sluggish liver - and that's the organ that converts T4 into the T3 your cells actually need

I read something that stopped me cold. I was sitting in my mother's kitchen last spring, watching her move around the counter. Slowly. Carefully. Like every step cost her something. She used to dance in that kitchen. I'm not exaggerating, she would put on the radio while she cooked and just move. Didn't care who was watching. That woman has been gone for six years. What's left is someone who wears

My daughter drew a picture of our family yesterday. All four of us. Even her dead grandma. She drew my mom in her gardening clothes because that's the only way she remembers her. Big straw hat. Dirt on her knees. She gave her huge arms because Grandma always scooped her up the second she walked through the door. Then she looked up at me and said, "When is Grandma coming back from the doctor?" My m
