The Hypothyroidism/diet Link

By Dr. Kevin Dobrzynski


Is there a link between hypothyroidism and diet?

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

However, to really understand the connection between hypothyroidism and diet you have to look for the cause of hypothyroidism, which most doctors don't do.



Unfortunately, there are only two things that most doctors focus on and this is diagnosis and treatment.

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

The answer 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 you don't have a code, you don't get paid.

I'm going to share a secret with you - and once you know it, you'll understand the cause of dis-ease of the body.

Treating a condition should be easy, once you know its cause, right?

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

Now, if you ask your doctor what the most common cause of hypothyroidism is, you should get an answer.

This is the answer...

The most common cause of hypothyroidism worldwide is iodine deficiency.

Iodine deficiency is due to a lack of this mineral in the diet.

This happens to be a link between dietary habits and hypothyroidism.

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

Unfortunately, if you live in the U.S. you can't fix hypothyroidism by simply adding iodine.

It could help if you have a deficiency.

Iodine may not help you because the most common cause of hypothyroidism in the U.S. is Hashimoto's Thyroiditis. This is an autoimmune disorder, which the cause is unknown.

However, the treatment for Hashimoto's should also include diet, because the cause of most dis-ease is the environment and diet.

We will talk more about nutrition and Hashimoto's in future articles.

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

If have hypothyroidism, focus on diet and deficiencies because most doctors don't do this.

Think about reading The Hypothyroid Diet.

Be well,
