Re: [Everything doTERRA] Thyroid issues: should I try anything else, too?

Hi Heather! I'd love to recommend a new book to you concerning your autoimmune disease! Sarah ballantyne, a co-podcaster on 'the paleo view" podcast has just written a book titled ' The Paleo Approach; reverse your autoimmune disease and heal your body." It's very well written- a great resource!

Hi Heather,

I too have hashimoto. You have autoimmune diseases and you would benefit immensely from changing your diet. Look up Paleo and also autoimmune protocol paleo. I have been doing it for almost a year. It helps! I am looking into testing my antibodies again, because they can go down. It's a lifestyle change, but you will feel better for it.

Happy to help,

Ashley

I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's and Grave's disease (not sure how I could have both), mild hyperthyroiditis, and thyroid nodules back in the fall. Since the diagnosis, I have been taking the LLV supplements, as well as using a rollerball blend of lemongrass (10 drops), myrrh (10 drops), clove (2-3 drops), and peppermint (2-3) 2 -3 times a day.

My question is, should I be alternating this protocol with something else? Should I be adding something to this? I am not taking any hormones currently, but am not opposed to doing so in the future; my greatest concern is to shrink the nodules so as to avoid surgery. (My doctor advised having my thyroid removed because of the nodules, even though they are benign.)

I'd appreciate any advice/ input others with more experience could offer.

Thanks,
Heather
