How do you manage(enjoy) your food when you have Hashimoto’s/ hypothyroidism?
Hello everyone, I have been a strict gluten free diet since January. As a result, I feel less bloated. I don ‘t know if it’s the levothyroxine or the gluten free diet but I can eat eggs, garlic ( sorry, I’m French) again. I couldn’t eat eggs or garlic for a few years. It’s still very new for me, I eat

Hi, I've now been strictly Gluten free for almost 7 weeks, and taking Levothyroxine 50mcg for about 5 weeks. I'm due to go back for some repeat bloods in a few weeks to see how my thyroid levels and antibodies are doing. I don't know if I've noticed any improvements or not from being Gluten free, it's

Current guesses (borrowed from several articles, papers, and studies). I'm seeing a pattern. Comments?
Over the last few months, I've been noticing some trends, and as I spent another nearly sleepless night reading and watching videos, some of the pieces seem to be fitting together. In short, it seems that more and more theories and studies are focusing on mitochondria. In particular, a "biochemical defect

Carbs and thyroid
sorry, none of you seem to have understood my question. I am not talking about low carb diets at all. I am asking if a high carb diet will cure an underactive thyroid in a person who is not on medicatrion. If so, where is the research and evidence and why don't endos, GPs etc. suggest adding extra

Well after all does weight really matter
Have just come off my first (and last ) cruise and I was staggered at the amount of people who were not just overweight but obese . Having carefully watched my weight for years and low fat diet plus plenty of exercise it didn’t stop me needing a bypass at 76 . So what am I missing I keep asking myself
