Examining Hypothyroidism, Diet, And How It Relates To You

By Dr. Kevin Dobrzynski


You may already recognize a strong connection between hypothyroidism, diet, and you.

Unfortunately the doctor you make an appointment with might not get adequate insight on how you can control hypothyroidism.

To this day, I'm still confused as to why most doctors think there's no connection between your diet and hypothyroidism. Yet when you're struggling with symptoms and weight loss doctors blame your diet, hmm?

If the answer is hesitant or absent, you will do yourself a favor by changing doctors. He or she should quickly tell you that it concentrates iodine and tyrosine to make thyroid hormones.

Move on to another physician for help if a fast and clear answer is not forthcoming. Your doctor should quickly answer, explaining that the body makes thyroid hormone by concentrating iodine and tyrosine.

In addition to iodine and tyrosine, the body requires a host of other minerals and vitamins. They include vitamin A, vitamin B, manganese, magnesium, selenium, zinc and copper to produce and convert the thyroid hormone. But, tyrosine and iodine are the most important ones.

Where do you go for these necessary nutrients when your food does not supply them in sufficient amounts? There are supplements, but, they do not adequately replace a deficient diet.

The environment and food intake are what cause hypothyroidism to occur. A stressful existence plays a part as well. Why then, if these are able to cause thyroid problems, should they not be a part of the treatment?

Hypothyroidism occurs mainly because of diet and the environment. Stress also plays a role. So, if these three things can cause thyroid problems shouldn't they be included in the treatment?

In what way does the diet and the environment where you live enable hypothyroidism or another disease to develop? The vitamins and minerals that are lacking allow toxicity of the body to cause it to break down.

Is it true that the body can be healed with the right food? There are many medical and non-medical individuals who believe it is possible.

Many more complex issues occur concurrently when disease strikes. But, is it a possibility that certain foods can heal your body? I think yes.

Now you know there is a definite connection between you, hypothyroidism, and diet.

Eat well and be well.
