Gluten is a common trigger for Hashimoto’s and can aggravate thyroid-related symptoms. In my survey of over 2000 individuals with Hashimoto’s, 93 percent felt better after going gluten-free! It’s worth noting that of those who responded, only 3.5 percent had celiac disease. 😩 Most readers said their reactions included gut issues like constipation, diarrhea, cramping, bloating, gas, nausea, and burning or burping from acid reflux, as well as symptoms such as headaches, brain fog, anxiety, depres

Hashimoto's thyroiditis, an autoimmune condition where the body's immune system attacks the thyroid gland, is often undiagnosed in patients experiencing thyroid issues. This is primarily because many doctors don't routinely test for Hashimoto's. But why?In the conventional medical model, the focus is usually on treating the high TSH number, and secondarily the symptoms, rather than identifying the underlying cause(s). When it comes to Hashimoto's thyroiditis, doctors often disregard testing for

How insulin resistance can make your Hashimoto's worse! In this video, I dive into the connection between insulin resistance and Hashimoto’s disease. Insulin resistance stimulates inflammatory pathways like NF-kB and TH17, which worsen autoimmune conditions like Hashimoto’s. The inflammation caused by both insulin resistance and Hashimoto’s can fuel a vicious cycle, leading to further insulin resistance and worsening autoimmune symptoms. It's critical to address insulin resistance while also sup

Is it possible to cure Hashimoto’s thyroiditis? Not exactly, but it may be possible to put Hashimoto’s into remission. A state of remission just means that your symptoms are 100% controlled and that your thyroid lab tests are essentially normal without the use of thyroid medication. It’s not possible for every patient to get to this state but it should be the goal to try to get there. The reason is that even if you can’t get into a state of remission, the treatments that you will use along the w

Hashimoto's thyroiditis is an autoimmune disease that causes the body to produce antibodies that attack and damage the thyroid gland. This can lead to a variety of symptoms, including fatigue, weight gain, and depression. Selenium helps to convert the inactive form of Thyroid hormone (T4) to the active form (T3), which is then able to be used by the body. Additionally, selenium has been shown to reduce levels of thyroperoxidase antibodies (TPO-Ab), which are one of the main drivers of Hashimoto'

Research supports a strong connection between Rheumatoid Arthritis and Hashimoto's thyroiditis. Studies show that patients who are diagnosed with Hashimoto's thyroiditis, have a higher risk of developing rheumatoid arthritis. Additionally, patients suffering from rheumatoid arthritis have an increased chance of acquiring Hashimoto's thyroiditis. The close correlation between autoimmune diseases suggests both share common underlying causes linked to immune system inflammation. In other words, bei
