samy1990 It means that you are positive for autoimmune thyroid disease aka Hashimoto's. This is where antibodies attack the thyroid and gradually destroy it. Hashi's isn't treated, it's the resulting Hypothyroidism that is.

You can help reduce the antibodies by adopting a strict gluten free diet which has helped many members enormously. Gluten contains gliadin which is a protein thought to trigger antibody attacks

Supplementing with selenium L-selenomethionine 200 MCG daily and keeping TSH suppressed also help reduce the antibodies.

Hashi's information:
