Can a low-fat whole food plant-based diet help someone with Hashimoto's disease?
What is Hashimoto's disease by the way? Mayo Clinic has the plainest and simplest explanation: It's a condition in which the immune system attacks the thyroid, a small gland at the base of the neck just below the Adam's apple. The thyroid gland is part of the endocrine system, which produces hormones that coordinate many of the body's functions. Inflammation from Hashimoto's disease, also known as chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis, often leads to an underactive thyroid gland (hypothyroidism). Hashimoto's disease is the most common cause of hypothyroidism. Science offers treatment for this autoimmune disorder. And it starts with a thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) test. It's a blood test used to evaluate how well the thyroid gland is working. And nutrition is equally important while dealing with the condition. Many patients are told by their doctors that high animal protein diets like Paleo diets are helpful in managing hypothyroidism. Something that Mastering Diabetes strongly disagrees with.
