Linsta,

Soy can aggravate Hashi's so it would be best to buy a multi-vitamin which does not contain it.

Thanks Clutter, still finding my way. No calcium or iron in the morning, no soya products at all, no cruciferous veg, must admit still like a bit of broccoli but can easily forget the rest. Is there anything that can help in the diet?

Goitrogens (cruciferous veg) are fine cooked but should be avoided raw. Gluten-free and the Paleo diet have been beneficial for many but not all hypo and Hashi px are gluten intolerant.
