In this lesson you will discover what thyroid peroxidase (TPO) antibodies are and what can be learned from them. You will also learn some about the role of thyroid peroxidase in the body. What Is Thyroid Peroxidase (TPO)? Have you ever gotten a cut or scrape? How did you treat it?
Having thyroid peroxidase antibodies is also associated with a number of other conditions. Patients with Graves' disease, an autoimmune thyroid disorder that causes the thyroid to overproduce the thyroid hormone, can have thyroid peroxidase antibodies present in their blood. Some studies have suggested...
There are two types of thyroid antibodies associated with Hashimoto’s: thyroid peroxidase antibodies (TPO antibodies) and thyroglobulin antibodies (TG antibodies). These are markers of how aggressive the attack is on your thyroid gland, and can be used as a marker to track the progress of your...

Soyis a phytoestrogen. This mean it can mimic estrogen although it does so very weakly and nowhere close to being as powerful as estrogen. Eating large amounts of soy can inhibit the activity of thyroid peroxidase (TPO) and cause the thyroid to be inflamed. ...
Additionally, due to the autoimmune attack and destruction of the thyroid, self-reactive antibodies such as thyroid peroxidase (TPOAb) and thyroglobulin antibodies (TgAb) become elevated and contribute to these symptoms. Many people will finally be diagnosed with Hashimoto’s at this point, but thei...

However, studies also show that consuming any of these nutrients in excess of the body’s needs does not provide additional protection and may even be harmful. Therefore, it is important to be watchful for the at-risk groups and to check their nutritional status and consider it adequately. ...
