Hi, I just joined the community. I am interested in how to treat osteoporosis and Hashimoto's diseases. Any one out there with these 2 diagnoses?

This link is to the Mayo Clinic and is about Hashimotos. mayoclinic.org/diseases-con...

The next link is to the American Osteoporosis Society nof.org/

Finally the link to the Royal Osteoporosis Society theros.org.uk/

Hope this helps.

I'm in same boat -- have heard thyroid meds for Hashimoto's cause bone loss. I end up taking Nature-Throid around 4:30am-5am, then go back to sleep, then have coffee around 6am with Calciblend in it to make coffee more alkaline and not leach bones. Black and green tea are no-nos for thyroid probs due to inherent fluoride, so am trying yerba mate which I've heard is OK for bones and doesn't have fluoride. Always a yo-yo....

I think coffee is bad for your bones.

Hello, westpartcadet. Here is some information from the American Bone Health site about Hashimoto's thyroiditis and the risk of osteoporosis. americanbonehealth.org/abou...

It is so hard to go dairy and gluten free with Hashimoto’s and osteopenia. Has anyone done it?
