Guest guest Posted October 15, 2010 Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 Hi All, I need to buy a thermometer and I'm wondering do I need to buy a specific type and which is a good one to buy? Also, would somebody run through the temperature protocol for assessing the thyroid pls - thanks. Lv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 15, 2010 Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 Temperate Charting by Dr. Rind: You can determine your thyroid and adrenal status by following Dr. Rind with a temperature graph. You simply take your temp 3 times a day, starting three hours after you wake up, and every three hours after that, to equal three temps. (If you have eaten or exercised right before it's time to take your temp, wait 20 more minutes.) Then average them for that day. Do this for AT LEAST 5 days. If your averaged temp is fluctuating from day to day more than .2 to .3, you need adrenal support. If it is fluctuating but overall low, you need more adrenal support and thyroid. If it is fluctuating but averaging 98.6, you just need adrenal support. If it is steady but low, you need more thyroid and adrenals are likely fine. http://www.drrind.com/therapies/metabolic-temperature-graph#intro JOT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
