Hyperinsulinemia
Many patients with DM Type II and hyperinsulinemia have low body temperatures and can benefit from WT3 therapy. If the thyroid system appears to need help, WT3 therapy and/or other thyroid support can always be used. The best thing about WT3 therapy is that it doesn’t have to be taken for life, unless the patient has Hashimoto’s Disease. The improvements are often lasting, but WT3 alone won’t always normalize insulin levels. Increasing body temperature is indicative of increasing metabolism, which results in increased uptake of glucose of the cells.
Hyperinsulinemia Hormone Supplements
| Hormone/ Drug | Indication | Pharmacology |
| Pregnenolon | Adrenal tonic | Low adrenal function is associated with hypometabolism causing weight gain |
| DHEA | Adrenal tonic | Low levels associated with dysglycemia |
| Liothyronine | WTS protocol helps with euthyroid and hypothyroidism | Low thyroid function causes weight gain and decreases insulin receptivity |
Caution: Thyroid hormone supplementation can cause potentially lethal cardiac consequences in diabetics. Due to the increased cardiovascular risk, caution should be used when administering thyroid hormones.
