The Hypothyroidism/diet Link

By Dr. Kevin Dobrzynski


Is there a hypothyroid diet connection?

Most doctors will usually say no to this question if asked.

If you want to develop a better understanding of the link between hypothyroidism and your normal eating habits, however, it is necessary to search for the cause of hypothyroidism, which is not something that a lot of doctors actually do.



Sadly, many doctors spend their time focusing on just two things - diagnosing and treating the issue.

You might find yourself asking, "Aren't diagnosis and identifying the cause the same thing?"

The answer to this question is NO.

Diagnosis is essentially a label. Doctors and insurers use these to categorize health problems. A health issues is then given a special code or number.

If a doctor doesn't have this code, the doctor cannot get paid.

I want to share a secret - once you have this information, you will have a better understanding of what causes physical dis-ease.

When you know what's causing a problem it should be easy to treat, right?

95% of diseases is actually due to the environment and the foods that are being consumed.

Now, if you should ask your doctor what commonly causes hypothyroidism, you should be able to get an answer.

This is the answer...

Iodine deficiency is the top cause of this condition throughout the entire world.

An iodine deficiency is caused by a insufficient quantities of this mineral in a person's eating patterns.

This is one link between what you are eating and hypothyroidism.

Thus, the solution to this illness in third-world countries is to simply add more iodine to the individual's eating plan.

But if you happen to live in the United States, this is not a problem that can be fixed by simply adding more iodine to your diet.

It could help if you have a deficiency.

Hashimoto's Thyroiditis is the top cause of hypothyroidism in the U. S, which is way iodine is not likely to help. This disorder is autoimmune and its cause is not yet known.

Diet is also a major part of the a Hashimoto's treatment however, because this is a disease that results from diet and the environment.

We will discuss Hashimoto's and dietary habits more in another article.

Now you know what causes most forms of disease as well as one link between this particular issue and dietary habits.

If you suffer from this ailment, place your focus on nutritional deficiencies as this is not something that many doctors do.

Think about reading The Hypothyroid Diet.

Be healthy,
