Keith Littlewood: 我对优化人类健康的热情源于我在学校的失败经历,以及后来在健身和功能医学领域的兴趣。我在军队服役后,偶然进入健身行业,并逐渐对功能医学和营养学产生了兴趣。我对Ray Peete的研究很感兴趣,他的信息和一些被忽视的科学家的扎实思考对我产生了影响。我认为当今商业和工业界倾向于采用还原论的方法,而忽视了一些更早但同样有效的研究。通过阅读和实践,我加深了对内分泌学的理解,并开始了对污染和激素,特别是甲状腺激素影响的博士研究。了解甲状腺功能及其紊乱对于理解人体生理的各个方面至关重要,这是一项值得终身投入的事业。我的工作是帮助人们理解并解决导致他们经历负面结果的系统输入,通过指导人们解决与激素相关的健康问题来谋生,重点是营养、环境和生活方式的调整。我意识到企业干预、数据压制和伪造的存在,这影响了人们的健康。甲状腺血液检测可能毫无意义,除非你了解个体所处的环境和压力水平。评估甲状腺相关临床试验的有效性需要了解试验参与者的暴露情况。我不认为自己是专家,因为在攻读博士学位时,我意识到自己的理解水平还有待提高。我对超分子生物学感兴趣,它关注生物体的整体功能,而不仅仅是分子水平。我认为重要的是要关注分子水平的变化,同时也要理解这些变化对生理、血液检测和症状表达的更广泛影响。我感兴趣的是更全面地了解与甲状腺抑制相关的问题,并帮助人们了解他们可以控制的事情。我认为人们在体检中可能会被技术性地变成病人,仅仅因为一些任意的数字被定义为好或坏。我希望人们明白他们可以掌控自己的健康,并在指导下找到改善生理机能的途径。我希望人们能够长期保持生理机能的凝聚力和秩序,而不需要过多的干预。胆固醇本身并不一定与心脏病有关,就像其他因素一样。动脉中胆固醇的积累是由于该区域存在损伤,而甲状腺激素对胆固醇值有很大影响。我感兴趣的是研究甲状腺功能抑制或不准确的甲状腺值如何影响代谢,以及这如何成为一个问题。
