The Link Between Hypothyroidism And Diet That Doctors Ignore

By Dr. Kevin Dobrzynski


Is there a hypothyroid diet connection?

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, a lot of doctors are focused on only two things...diagnosis and treatment.

You could be asking, "Aren't searching for a cause and diagnosis 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 you don't have a code, you don't 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.

If you know the cause of a condition the treatment should be easy, right?

Diet and environment are the cause of 95% of disease.

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

This is the answer...

The most common cause of hypothyroidism worldwide is iodine deficiency.

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

This is one link between Hypothyroidism and diet.

In countries that are underdeveloped, the simply solution to this issues is to add more iodine to a person's eating regimen.

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.

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.

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.

Hashimoto's and diet will be discussed in a future article.

Now you have a better idea of what causes most forms of disease and one known link between diet and hypothyroidism.

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 well,
