Endometriosis
Facts:
Tyrosine
reduces dopamine levels, Thyroid hormones are derived from Tyrosine.
In
Endometriosis Cysteine reads as Tyrosine in error.
Endometriosis
occurs when there is a lack of Cysteine in the body and the body is
creating tyrosine instead.
Human
Hepcidin – a natural iron regulator the absence of which creates a
condition known as Hereditary Haemachromatosis which results in high
iron levels.
Human
Hepcidin is created from Cysteine rich peptides.
In
conditions where Cysteine is substituted for Tyrosine the natural
iron regulator Hepcidin is not produced.
Cysteine
metabolises to Sulphuric Acid which detox's the system.
Cysteine
breaks down mucus making it thinner and easier to cough up. (Is there
a lack of Cysteine with the condition Cystic Fibrosis?)
Observations:
I come from a family that has the potential to get thyroid problems,
my body may well produce Tyrosine to help and this in turn creates
Thyroxine and keeps Thyroid problems at bay. The accidental result
could be lack of Cysteine creating Endometriosis. That same lack of
cysteine could mean that my natural iron regulator in the form of
Hepcidin is not being made.
I
come from a family history which is part Irish and part German. The
German part of the family are more prone to Thyroid problems. I have
heard if you live in a country that does not have a water boundary it
can lack Iodine from the sea in the air and cause Thyroid problems
over many generations. So I have the potential for Thyroid problems but I don't have the problem. Yet.
I
also have an Irish background and the condition Hereditary
Hemochromatosis is common amongst the Irish and can be found in DNA some 4,000 years ago mutating so that it could asborb the
little iron they had. Of course once their diets returned to normal
the mutation remained and the body stores more iron than is necessary
and the condition Hereditary Hemochromatosis was born. Oddly Cystic Fibrosis is also highly prevalent in Ireland along with lactose intolerance. All mutations many thousands of years old.
So
from my German background my body changes the production of Cysteine
to Tyrosine in order to correct my potential for Thyroid problems,
which in turn creates the health problem Endometriosis through lack
of Cysteine, which in turn creates my Hereditary Hemochromotosis
problems again from lack of cysteine. So perhaps if I found a way to
add Cysteine to my body I would not have had H.H or Endometriosis but
could well have had Thyroid problems.
It
would appear my mutations were trying to help my combined
German/Irish background and ended up causing me health problems. DNA always has good intentions.
As an update since writing this I have had surgery to correct the endometriosis......and yes I now have thyroid problems. X
