INTRODUCTION
Benedicte Mai Lerche is a biochemist with an MSc and PhD.
BENEDICTE'S STRUGGLE WITH HYPOTHYROIDISM
In her early twenties, Benedicte experienced severe hypothyroid symptoms, including chronic fatigue, muscle pain, headaches, digestive problems, allergies, PCOS, and more. Despite these numerous symptoms, her hypothyroidism was overlooked for a long time. When she finally received the diagnosis, finding the right treatment proved challenging.
DISCOVERING DR. RAY PEAT:
The turning point in Benedicte's health journey came when she connected with thyroid expert Dr. Ray Peat. His innovative approach and groundbreaking insights into metabolism and hormones played a crucial role in her transformation from battling debilitating hypothyroid symptoms to achieving vibrant health.
LEARNING FROM DR. RAY PEAT:
Dr. Peat taught Benedicte how to correctly interpret her thyroid lab results and how to monitor her metabolism at home using pulse and temperature. He also guided her in following his pro-metabolic diet and using her thyroid medication properly. His insights into natural hormone supplementation, particularly progesterone and pregnenolone, were invaluable to her recovery.
HELPING OTHERS HEAL:
Unfortunately, Benedicte's experience is not unique. Many people face similar health challenges, desperately searching for explanations and solutions to their symptoms. Often, they don’t realize that their diverse symptoms are linked to an underactive thyroid. Benedicte's mission is to help others recover their health using Dr. Ray Peat’s groundbreaking insights.
