A killed thyroid

[Sophiaaz]

My daughter was given radioactive iodine for her hyperthyroidism. Is there any natural foods that can help her?

I would imagine she has no thyroid function any longer and needs to take HRT for that!

The basic McDougall approach to eating i.e. Starch Solution is the way to go. I think the MWL version, just tweaked a bit as needed to lose, maintain, or gain weight. But the basic principles are the healthiest way to go.

I am not sure what concern you want to address. Are you worried about the radioactivity, or something else? Sorry if I'm being oblivious. What is it you want to help her with?

My hypothyroidism is severe. 125 mcg/day. What can I do to reverse it and lose weight? I can’t seem to lose even on a strict WPBD.

My initial dose to get thyroid "in range" was 150 mcg/day. TSH was 85 at diagnosis. Everyone is different. Hmmm, I think I should pm my experience(s)...Look for it

I did not address your second question, about weight loss. Read these two blog posts by Jeff Novick and they should get you going in the direction you want to go

They are also posted on Jeff's forum but mixed in w/ Q&A. I think this is good place
