I was 15 when they realized my thyroid was really off I had to take 10 drops of iodine a day for quite a while then it went the other way and I had to take thyroid pills, after they did surgery I was told it was important that I have some form of iodine each day and since I would not eat sea food I needed to make sure my salt had iodine in it; this was when I was 15 I am now 62 and they still tell me I need to use iodinzed salt.

[...] again when you are looking to provide yourself with a healthy hypothyroidism diet much like with goitrogens and everything else that you include in your diet, it’s important to maintain a healthy balance [...]

I am coming to believe in the idea of eating at least 30 different foods everyday which I have heard some indigenous/traditional beliefs hold. However, it seems that eating a class of foods could pose a problem too. I have been a sweet potato and cruciferous consumer about 70% too. I also am working to correct my thyroid.

I was wrongly diagnosed as a celiac 12 months ago and as much as I did the right thing, nothing changed. So this week my doctor tested for Hypothyroidism. What a lightbulb effect. All those symtpoms and more came popping to the surface. And looking at the list of Goitrogen food……they are 70% of my diet! I heard too that sweet potato is a goitrogen as well, which I was substituting for potato and carb levels.
Can’t wait for treatment to start and get things back to normal. When I think about it I’ve been this was for just under 20 years!
