Going gluten free, taking adequate amounts of Iodine (50-100mg of iodoral) and selenium (200mg selenomethionine) to suppress the antibodies. Go over to the Iodine supplementation forum for info and support on iodine.

EDIT: I forgot to mention taking enough desiccated thyroid meds too. see: http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com

hello tash25,
i have recently been diagnosed with hashimotos. i am working with a practitioner trained by dr. Kharrazian .
i have been suffering for 2 an ahalf years without diagnosis.i have had mostly all of the symptoms.

basicly if you have hashimotos or any autoimmune you will have to stay off gluten the rest of your life. just eating gluten once can cause a reaction for 6 to 9 months.


i have been off gluten for about 7 weeks and my energy is getting better. I am also off all dairy and red meat.my stomach is flatter less bloated and digestion is better.

check out dr k's website http://www.thyroid360.com/
and listen to his interviews.if you read his book you will know more than 99 percent of drs about your condition.
