I started half a grain of thyroid after feeling low energy and other symptoms. I’m able to fall asleep at night now (without magnesium and melatonin) and my hair falls out less, but I gained 7 pounds since starting it and I’m bordering on obese.
My labs were normal (cusp of subclinical) before and I retested with the same thyroid lab values. So on to gluten free I go- my doc and the research says that gf helps thyroid. So then I was looking into it and found autoimmune paleo and it made a lot of sense because I was keto and inflamed and crashed years ago even though I was at a healthier weight. So, now I’m wondering why RP followers seem to act like paleo is so different from RP diet. RP always talks about easy to digest food. I mean, sure, for RP diet there is more sweetner variety + almost gf sourdough, but overall the diets seem so similar. Paleo seems to be the most easily digestible food in addition to sweet molasses and other sugars that are easy for the body. Can someone help me navigate why paleo would be so bad?
