RE: Candida Cleanse Week 3: What Are We Really Eating? ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐
I've been on the Anti-Candida and Autoimmune Paleo diet for about 2 months now and it's a pretty crazy way to eat. I've been really strict about it and do eat meat (not eggs cuz I'm allergic). Just started to eat quinoa, rice, potatoes, and nuts again because I wasn't getting enough food! But feeling pretty good. Doing it for my thyroid so that I can hopefully keep the darn thing!
Cool that you have a community setting so you can support each other through the sometimes difficult cravings. I couldn't do it without my husband working on it with me ( :
I would look into iodine and then check out what Anthony William has to say about the thyroid in his first book (white one with xray looking cover).
Looked up Iodine but mixed reviews. It's supposed to be good for the Thyroid but not necessarily good for Hashimotos or Graves

Every cell in your body has two things; water and iodine (or it is suppose to). People have become so deficient in iodine that they are developing "diseases" that doctors will tell you not to consume it even though your body really needs it. I highly suggest you read more about iodine at the link above and if someone told you that you have Hashimotos or Graves then I would also highly suggest you read Anthony William book on chronic disease. He helped me fix my EBV (Epstein Barr Virus) Which according to modern medicine is just something you have to suffer with after they pump you full of steroids that mess up your body even worse. Even if you don't believe where he gets his information from, everything I have done from his book for myself and my son has worked very well and I was basically dying from mercury poisoning! :-)
I'll totally check it out ( : Thanks
No worries! I love to help people!
hi @jayjayjeffery, my thyroid gland was damaged by radiation treatment after surgery for throat cancer. Yes, you want to do everything you can to keep it if you can.
The Candida Balancing Diet is very natural. It promotes good digestive tract health and improves the immune system.
Common side effects of the loss of the full function of the thyroid gland include feeling cold and a lack of energy.
After my surgery at the University of Alberta Hospital the doctors there now move the thyroid gland to an arm, out of harms way of the radiation.

All the best to you.
Woah, what?!?!?! Doctors are just scooting the thyroid out into the arm??? That's so sci-fi!
There are so many more ways to restore full health than radiation.
Yep!!! They think of some pretty far out things at the U of A Hospital. The doctors there are very visionary and "what if" types.
And yes, I wish I knew (and practiced) 15 and 20 years ago what I know and do now, health and diet wise. Health is an asset that is priceless but sadly not always appreciated until you lose it.
What!? That's the craziest thing I ever heard! Into your arm? That's kind of freaky (;
It is kind of Frankenstein-ish, isn't it. I just wish they were doing it 10 years ago. It's not so much fun to be cold all the time and low on energy. All the best to you with a healthy solution to your situation.

As far as your thyroid health goes, please learn more about iodine! It's supremely important to the body as a whole, but to the thyroid in particular. We're supposed to be consuming this on a regular basis, but it's not readily available from the standard American food supply anymore (and hasn't been for decades). Iodine deficiency can be the basis of a huge range of diseases, including both hypo- AND hyper- thyroidism. We have seen first hand how this required nutrient can make significant differences in health, and we've done tons of research on it. We highly recommend you look into it: http://www.intothegardenofeden.com/iodine1.html
Good on you for going the natural route to heal your body. Anything is possible, and healing is truly limitless!!! YOU CAN DO IT!!!!
I had heard a bit about Iodine. Surprised my doctor didn't bring it up! I'll read your linked article, Thanks!
