Need help with slight overactive thyroid condition

[Guest guest]

Hi!

 

I have just been diagnosed with slight overactive thryoid condition.

Is there anything natural that I can do to correct this problem? Also,

I am nursing and plan on doing so for at least another 6 months or so

so I can't take anything that can hurt my daughter. Any suggestions or

information would be greatly appreciated?

 

Thanks Much!

Sheryl, Try to get the lab results. Overactivity may come from several sources.

Need help with slight overactive thyroid

Hi!

Sheryl,

 

Stay away from high sources of Iodine, like Iodized salt,

Multi Vitamins with high Iodine content... you will be surprised in how

many foods they add a form of sea weed, like careegan, agar-agar, etc. Cabbage

family products, like

brussel sprouts and cabbage juice are helpful... I had this condition

and was lucky to have found a good endocrinologist that was willing to

wait and see if what I was doing on my own would work! As a result of

this, I found that citric acid (which is a preservative added to most

process foods these days) was involved in creating a stress condition in

a chain reaction involving my thyroid and adrenals... I also developed a

reactive hypoglycemic condition, where if I stay without eating for a

while and then ate a meal with simple sugars, I would get an adrenalin

spike with heart palpitations, etc. I now eat low GI snacks regularly

and avoid most gluten containing breads, etc. Everybody is different so

you should do your own investigation of what maybe causing YOUR problem,

in my case, it was STRESS unbalancing y endocrine system!
