I see one person went carnivore. I went all-veggie, except for fish - no dairy, gluten, sugar, or processed for 6 years now. My thyroid is normal and I have no Hashimotos symptoms. Diet also reversed my RA and I have minimal symptoms, and I have no scleroderma symptoms, despite having the autoantibodies. No meds either. So, you don't have to be a carnivore. Diet can work wonders.
Thanks for sharing that... I started the AIP Diet.. a few weeks ago .. not as big a deal as I thought ( but I was glutein free for a year( not perfectly but pretty good) Now I know I will not return cuz the freedom from that Wheat intolerance is ALREADY greatly improved... - ( it appears we need to be at a breaking point when changes need to be made)) And with the help from A higher source ( mine is YAHWEH) All things can be accomplished .. shalom
How long before all your symptoms went (hashimotos)? My grandmother had scleroderma - I’m sorry you have that to deal with as well. I’m happy you found relief
@@Whatisalex took about 6 months to get all my symptoms managed and my esr and crp back to normal. exercise is also crucial. and keeping the bad stress out of your life. fortunately, I have the crest version of the scleroderma. sorry about your grandmother.
I have Hashimoto's, and I went on the AIP diet a year ago. My bloodwork is now within the norm on all my tests! I plan to stay on it going forward. Thank you for your videos. They really help.
I decided to go carnivore since hashimotos is gut related My thyroid antibodies are normal, hair is fuller than ever. I will always stay away from gluten. As far as being carnivore for life, I'm not sure. I definitely will be on the spectrum of low-carb to lion diet. Oxalates & fruits have always made me itchy. I am very happy that everything is optimal
I'm the total opposite: fully plant based diet, I eat gluten, and my antibodies also dropped! (From 850 to 14 last time I checked). Just want to add I have done some life changes and use some "helpers" with Hashi so I think it's a mix of things that have helped.
I eat only healthy and cook I don't crave any sweets,only one black coffee, morning exercise, last meal 1pm. I ate as well the same before getting Hashimoto. Stress and polutated air are way more worse! Diet is only 50% , water quality, air quality. I eat diary fermented in the evening like skyr or kefir and I feel amazing. In my case Hashimoto was not because of diet because I don't even have even glucose spikes (that's also stress) for me it was stress because of bad people around me, polutated air and water, and main reason: exercise in the evening! That hurt my thyroid the most! Workouts in the evening and protein after workout, due to cortisol spikes. Now when I exercise in the morning and only walk in the first in the afternoon I am in remission. So no diet is not only the reason. More important check that is the reason of stress that destroys your thyroid. Even this perfect diet you mention and I would eat in the evening, it's stress for my body. Or wrong order of eating. And glucose spikes 😅
I've been on keto & intermittent fasting since 2017; I've done a few longer fasts, but not many. Diagnosis was Hashimoto's in about March, 2024. Your suggested food list is what I'm already doing. This is our Labor Day "long weekend," and I'm trying a 72-hour fast this weekend. I just learned that I brought down my own TSH numbers from 78 to 16.8 since March, without medication. I think the biggest thing I did to make the change was going dairy-free since March. I'm interested to see what autophagy (the 72-hour fast) does for me. I also received my first bottle of Thyrotrophin PMG last night and took the first pill, so that should be interesting too. I'm tending now toward carnivore, although I do like a fabulous salad every few days. Random observation: I got COVID for the first time ever this past July, and it seemed that in recovering from COVID I craved carbs like never before. I've been on keto & IF for so long, carbs just weren't a temptation at all, until after COVID. There's some connection there. Colleagues who also got COVID for the first time in July (we shared it!) also mentioned the new carb craving.
One remark. Better choices are: primorse oil (due to DGLA content acting higly aintinflammatory and antiallergic). As to carbohydrates. Ketogenic diet cuts inflammation in Hashimoto more thany any other diet as some studies have shown. rT3 has nothing to do with availability of free T3 hormones. T4 and T3 are not changing on low carb diets. rT3 has some effect on hypothalamus, but real function is uknown. T3 hormones are needed for carbohydrate metabolism (and proteins as well), so when your turnover of carbohydrates and proteins is reduced (which may be considered good in many instances), T3 hormones produced by liver and kidney are not needed and bound to reverse transport protein, so they become rT3. That is why rT3 goes up. But it does not shut down T4/T3 production nor affect TSH level... In otherwords, I disagree with this autor has said at 7th minute. Othorwise video is worthy.
Lactose intolerance is almost nonexistent in northern European and Scandinavian cultures, because these folks have benefited from the evolutionary changes necessary for people trying to survive in cold clients climates, and for most that includes dairy. As you move farther south towards the equator, the incident of lactose intolerance is greater and greater until you get into West Africa where it’s something like 97% of people are like intolerant. On the other hand, sensitivity, or allergy to milk proteins, such as Casein Is somewhat prevalent.
Because in general there is not sufficient about selenium in our food, even Brazilian nuts famous for selenium richness are not really containing it due to poor soil. Please if you supplement check blood tests, I've seen many people supplementing vitamins and minerals and not absorbing them. Blood tests are expensive but more expensive are supplements which we often don't absorb. In all thyroid diseases you need to have good level of vitamin D, ferritin,FE and B12, selenium. Avoid any supplement with vitamin mix and biotin, often people don't even know what can hurt them.
I lost my thyroid 15 years ago. I do agree with you that limiting calories destroyed my metabolism. My sister did not and I did. We both lost our thyroids, but she has a much higher metabolism than I do. Will this protocol help us who have lost our thyroids to be healthier.
Just started AIP diet 2 weeks ago( which I first heard here by Dr Childs .. It has been a big deal but then again I've had thyroid issues for 20+years diagnosed 13 years ago ( meds were crap ( Levo) 5 years.. stopped n so I did nothing.. now I got very small growths.. with my hair failing out) .. -got on Armour / change to a functional dr.. (as these standard docs nothing except say retest in 6mos.. I think NOT... AIP was told me on my visit..( new blood tests in 6weeks with better testing to ensue) I FEELREALLY GOOD.. I already ate Biblically Clean..avoid some things but I loved sugary stuff.. WHEAT ( the stuff out here I will no longer consume for sure).. eventually HEIRLOOM WHEAT unprocessed I hope to be able to eat.. ... Then I learned I could actually reverse my symptoms .. EVEN BETTER.. I personally say thank you YAHWEH for Wisdom you impart to the GOOD DOCS .. The ability for us hear and learn to trust in the process and to heal.. !
Would this diet also help with healing my gut? If it actually needs healing, that’s to be determined lol I have Hashimoto but no symptoms of a poor gut as far as I can tell without being tested
Hi Dr. My TPO is 1400's and my TSH, T3 and T4 normal.. what that means and what can i do thank you... My tsh was at level 17 a few years ago but i just took another test last week and my TSH t3 and t4 is normal
I have Hashimotos and developed small fiber neuropathy all over my body. The neurologists were stumped. I was already dairy free but gave up gluten and added a supplement containing vitamin B1 (benfotiamine) and R alpha lipoic acid and it’s improved 98%! It feels like a miracle to me. Good luck! 🙏🏻 ps it took two months to see results as I’ve learned nerves heal slowly.

This worked for me, too. Meat,eggs,cheese and fruit. Animal based dirt. Oh and lost 30lbs
Gut relation is only 50% it's as well any other stress inside and outside your body
Please be aware usually after 3years of taking thyroid hormones antibodies drops
@user-lk8ff5nx1c 80% of your immune system is in your gut. For a lot of people, it cause gap junctions. Leaky gut

Just wondering why you did not mention checking selenium level and taking a selenium supplement to boost this mineral ?
Because in general there is not sufficient about selenium in our food, even Brazilian nuts famous for selenium richness are not really containing it due to poor soil.
Please if you supplement check blood tests, I've seen many people supplementing vitamins and minerals and not absorbing them.

Once I changed my diet, the MD reduced my thyroid meds by 10%

What about Graves' disease? Doctors never discuss hyperthyroidism. Is this channel specifically for hypothyroidism?
Do you know if hashimotos can cause neuropathy?
I have Hashimotos and developed small fiber neuropathy all over my body. The neurologists were stumped. I was already dairy free but gave up gluten and added a supplement containing vitamin B1 (benfotiamine) and R alpha lipoic acid and it’s improved 98%! It feels like a miracle to me. Good luck! 🙏🏻 ps it took two months to see results as I’ve learned nerves heal slowly.
GREAT VIDEO - such a good concentration of information in one short video which I appreciate! Thank you so much
@@michellemybelle22 I tried giving up gluten and dairy it didn’t help me
😊thank you I have a question is it ok to take ashwagandha when you have hashimoto's?
yes
No
I heard it is ok. So I will
I have mine in a low state but a tpo above 3 is still hashis. Mine is 7 , even still my t3 sits low at 2.5. It sucks
How do you figure the grams of protein so we can get enough?
Bodybuilding wise it's 0.8g per pound or 2g per kg. His estimate is low.
Worst disease ever!
