I had great results a few months ago by both adhering to a Peat diet and supplementing thyroid. Since I had been eating well for 3/4 of a year (not every single meal has been perfect, but my diet has been good overall), I decided to stop supplementing thyroid two months ago. I thought a good diet, vitamins, aspirin, and bag breathing would have fixed the thyroid issues by now, but I am literally back to square one.
Is it just impossible to reverse hypothyroidism once it starts? Has anyone successfully normalized inflammation/estrogen-dominance/high cortisol without being on hormones/medicines/supplements? I notice that several people on here take various hormones/medicines/supplements. So does the Peat "diet" even work if all those pharmaceuticals are necessary?
Keep in mind that thyroid was at one time FOOD.
People would eat it just like liver or any other organ.
Its time people stopped with their "when can I get off of this?" thing.
Instead of wanting to stop be happy you have resources that help you.
why some resources are considered good and others people want to stop
Is one of the worst aspects of our cultural stories.
Not picking on you at all I understand why you ask the question
but just be thrilled you have resources to help you.
Keep documenting your pulse/temp/mood and over time maybe your dose will change
but you never ask when can I stop eating food, when can I stop breathing air, when can I stop consuming B vitamins.
You live in a culture who's practices directly ruin your thyroid, the same culture that teaches
you that your goal should be to stop taking thyroid. Take it, enjoy it, congrats on finding the resources you need.
Many people never do.
