    Sigh….. I am 51. I’ve had symptoms since I was 19. I could SEE it in my face. I would have a fat face…. Then thin face… then fat face. Back and forth felt awful. All over pain. Got married. Husband saw it all. When I was 28 I saw a DO. The DO told me something is off with your thyroid. Then I got pregnant. A miracle. EVERYTHING worked again so I didn’t deal with the thyroid issue. After the baby I wanted to address it. That DO was now gone. All of my MDS said “your numbers are fine. Your thyroids a bit swollen. We’ll watch. This happened for 15 years. Every pregnancy I got better. I swear o went from overactive thyroid to underactive thyorid… back and forth. I had doctor after doctor tell me your numbers are fine. Let’s do an ultrasound. Thyroid looks fine. Large by fine. Not growing. I got worse and worse. Sicker and sicker. I got to the point that I sounded croupy when breathing. It was scary. It scared my husband. I couldn’t breathe. On top of complete systemic failure. One day I was laying on the couch. Croupy breathing. Blueish skin. I had JUST had an ENT tell me to give it six more months and she would biopsy it. My husband saw me and said ENOUGH. we are going to the ER. I walk in and the doctor on duty hears my breathing. He says get her in here now. This isn’t normal. My blood oxygen was 85. They run text. They do a PET scan. Turns out my thyroid was growing INWARD. It had wrapped around my esophagus and artery. I couldn’t breathe. It was literally choking me. The ultrasound only picks up a certain depth, so that’s why it wasn’t seeing growth. They order immediate emergency thyroidectomy. The next morning. I wake up… BREATHING! I could tell the difference immediately. The surgeon walks in. Quite disturbed. He tells my husband and I that it was definitely cancer. My this was all cancer. It fell apart in his hands. He also tells me my numbers indicated hashi. THEY NEVER SAW THOSE NUMBERS… for years they never checked those numbers. It was in the 40’s. Turns out I had hashi the entire time and somehow it was definitely cancer. Complete removal followed by a few forms of radiation. This wasn’t “the good cancer” as my doctor always said that thyroid cancer is. It was poorly differentiated insular carcinoma of the thyroid stage four. A very rare cancer that is isually only found around Chernobyl. I have lived in Houston my entire life. Its now been seven years after and I still have high numbers that indicate hashi. (Is this normal? With no thyroid) I take armour now and vitamins (most mentioned) but I’ve never been told about the gut connection. Although I have also always had serious gut issues. IBS… Even a hiatal hernia. Women aren’t listened too.

      I'm really sorry to hear that you had the bad cancer. I hope you are doing better now. I complained for years and was tested repeatedly for thyroid issues. They kept telling me my numbers were fine. Then they found Hashi's, but still no hypo. Still normal functioning. Then I find a lump - cancer. And my whole thyroid is removed. So - how does it go from no hypo to cancer, just like that?

      I just discovered the gut connection. I got the thyroid problem when I was pregnant. So, 40 years later, I'm eating the carnivore lifestyle, and my gut issues have gone from diarrhea all the time to regular poops. Unbelievable! So, I need the new tests for thyroid done, but I have to wait 2 more months for the time frame the insurance likes 😊

    I've been on thyroid meds for over 20 years, I've never heard of the root causes, this is a game changer for me. I'm in my mid 50s but I'm doing more research. I don't like the fact, that most doctors want to give you a pill,send you on your way and not discuss any if this.

      They are literally trained to get you to never call back and only return when they say. That’s the teaching model. This started around the millennium when a stupid pol lit tic cal decision was made causing doctors and hospitals to treat quantities not quality just to recoup. It destroyed conventional medicine and the teaching structure too. I watched it happen. Many ppl now spend more than they ever would have and are still falling through the cracks of the system.

    I started seeing a functional doctor 6 months ago. I went gluten free the day I met with her after having blood work. She put me on all the supplements you recommended. Except the iron . I have HH. Life changing for me. I have had hbp for almost 25 years and took meds 7 times a day that keeps my bp down but not good. I am still seeing my functional doctor and am off all my blood pressure meds. I got to the point where I knew I would be in a nursing home if I didn’t get some help. God gave me the courage to seek treatment from her. I feel better now at 67 than I have in over 30 years and in no medication. I was treated for hashimotos about 15 years.

      I have Kaiser but I paid for a naturopathic doctor who diagnosed hypothyroidism. I don’t have another $5,500 to pay for another year. Went to my regular doctor and showed her the medicine I was on and my labs from the other doctor. She said she talk to an endocrinologist to see if I could have a consultation. Well, they came back saying my labs look fine or medical system is so messed up.

    I started with chronic headaches at around age nine. Then debilitating cramps and migraines. Once I hit my late thirties, I started having thyroid issues. In my mid forties I was hospitalized because my liver was in distress. No one could understand why my liver and kidney function was off, despite seeing specialists! Just before having half of my thyroid removed, I finally made the connection between gluten and migraines. One year later of being gluten-free, all of the symptoms I have mentioned here have been resolved and my liver is much improved and kidneys are functioning beautifully. I'm so grateful.

    I tried a MD. She put me on 50 levo...I felt like my old self. Next visit she drops me to 25 levo because she said my numbers were in the acceptable range. I felt like shizz. Went back and she basically said she wasn't concerned with how I felt as long my number was within range. It was barely over the lowest level considered 'normal'. I never went back. It's been 20 years. Maybe I will try again. Your video is interesting.

    Hashimotos is the end result of a systemic problem thats been happening for a long time.
    Triggers: Stress - trauma, chronic stress, viruses, high cortisol, heavy metal toxins, all these things chemically effects and causes havoc to your immune system
    If you have hashimotos you have leaky gut and gluten intolerance.
    Your thyroid keeps being assaulted because your security system is still malfunctioning.
    T4 conversion to T3 happens in yhe gut and liver. The type of bacteria in your gut determines this conversion process.

Ashwaganda (sp?) is chock full of sulfur; you’re really Not doing your body any good taking it if you have sulfur issues.

      Groups that support iodine supplementation suggest 'cofactors' being important. Selenium was mentioned by Dr E but also vit b2 and vit b3.
      B3 - niacin can cause flushing for 30 minutes or so. This is dilation of blood vessels. I turn a little red on my face and chest and it can be itchy but it lowers blood pressure. And its been beneficial for me.
      The different flush free form of b3 is not so good for you!!

    When I was 9 I was a healthy kid that my mom was dragging to doctors to see if they could prevent me from being tall (I was 5’2” & I wanted to be 6’ like my aunt). I had all my childhood vaccines and the diseases that there weren’t vaccines for. And that summer I was in a pool accident where chlorine was forced into my lungs and gut. There were 2 of us and we couldn’t breathe on our own. In the hospital in that era docs talked in front of kids. We had chlorine in our blood. The next morning we could breathe on our own but we still had chlorine in our blood. Then the 2 docs argued over whether we’d make it to 20 or 30. Within 3 years I had the 2 week measles again. I got strep throat every year of college and a bit after. I got mono in college. My cold sores got a bit more aggressive. Eating was a challenge so I cut out meat and became a vegetarian. In college I learned from an older person (25 to my 18) that I had chronic constipation. I was fighting depression. I learned to eat a healthy diet. I’d already started boycotting McDonalds and Coca-Cola/pepsi for political reasons (climate change). I learned taking liquid calcium in gel caps helped with my nighttime “bicycling”. I made it past 30. I did have mysterious weight gain/loss that was sometimes related to stress but sometimes not so no doctor ever thought to test my thyroid. Then I got a very stressful job and I started to lose my hair, including my eyebrow tips. My therapist told me to see an endocrinologist. He gave me a panel and put me on synthroid. I immediately put on a huge amount of weight, so much hair shedding that others commented on it. All my muscles ached and I had weird headaches. I went on disability. The doc added cytomel. I got slightly better and went back to work but started looking for a new job. I ended up being put on all sorts of thyroid meds and all caused extreme problems. I started seeing a very old Chinese Accupuncturist who was a surgeon in Taiwan but due to racism was an accupuncturist in Chinatown (some of those years the practice was illegal in the US). After a month or so she told me the drugs I was taking were killing me. I told her I didn’t take drugs. She tapped her thyroid. She told me not to stop it suddenly as that would probably kill me. Over the next 8 painful months we slowly cut the dose. She’d give me treatments that would help my whole body, including the severe muscle pain. When I was down to the smallest amount I started to feel so much better! When I was completely off of it I did a thyroid panel. My doctor was like yay! We are down to the correct dose! This is great news. I told her I’d been med free for 6 weeks and I felt better than I had in years. My elderly acupuncturist retired and I found a new one (American) who knew what I did and suggested that I give up wheat for 30 days and after 30days have a meal of pasta or pizza. After 30 days I was at a job class in another city and forgot to bring my wheat free protein bar to our free breakfast so I started to eat a bran muffin. I immediately started sneezing and my eyes got swollen after 2 bites. I was permanently wheat free. The following year my chiropractor told me to go atkins as low carb supports thyroid disease. I went back to eating meat. I felt great.
    My body to this day (24 years low carb, wheat, rice, sugar free) does not play well with pharmaceuticals. I get all the weird side effects for most of them, including antibiotics. I have been taking supplements since I was 1st diagnosed with hashimotos (30+ years ago). As I’ve aged I’ve added more to support aging. I did try iodine and other natural remedies for thyroid and my body always had an extreme reaction to them so iodine is off the table. From the beginning I’ve taken: liquid gel caps calcium complex, vit d3, MSM, primrose gelcaps (cause thyroid helps female hormones, unfortunately not testosterone so I’ve been low on that since my org diagnosis), olive leaf and quercetin (for immune support and lung support), and CoQ10. Now I take a vision supplement (it has selenium in it), hair,skin,nails supplement, 3 supplements for blood pressure, 5 supplements for chronic constipation, niacin. Whew. I also take collagen but more to up my protein intake at 69 I need to pay more attention to it. Most doctors do not realize I ALMOST DIED FROM CHLORINE POISONING! It wiped out my gut and while I have tried almost every probiotic in the stores (many online) they don’t really help (I have taken some of them for years…). One of my colon supplements has probiotics in it. I follow the research on gut transfusions. I am an extreme outliner but I have been able to have an active, happy life even if my growth stopped immediately after my poisoning (and my restrictive eating has caused problems for my bones).
    Low carb and daily exercise has worked for me!

    ✨After a million hours of videos, articles and research, I finally found the video that convinces me to stop eating gluten. According to lab tests, I am not “allergic or intolerant”, but my body says otherwise.
    ✨✨I went to see a doctor in South America, he told me I’m definitely Type 2 Diabetic and Hypo. I came back to Canada and told them to retest me and of course, “all was good”, “labs look good, except your Iron”. And also, “You just have anxiety”. A yr later, I found out I had colon cancer. So, yes!! I believe you when you say Hashimoto is a symptom of underlying issues. I definitely need to stop the gluten or my cancer will come back.
    ✨Also, gluten makes me feel anxious and irritable and messes with my physical, mental, emotional and psychological health. This stops now! ✋

    My thyroid started acting up when I went through a bad divorce. Then I had to be on a very strong antibiotic. Gave me C-diff. Then a systemic yeast infection then my thyroid went south even more. Had all the symptoms. Started doing research. I have leaky gut. I’ve now started treating leaky gut and my body is healing I’m losing weight no more gut issues or pain and my hair is coming back in crazy good.
    This is the best Thyroid video I’ve ever seen. God Bless you Dr E

    Do you know, I was already showing some of these signs in my late teens, 1970s. Have asked a million people. In 1980s the only endocrinologist in Cape Town even found out my thyroid "was a little bit low but nothing to do about it yet, it's not bad enough"... Eventually had a partial diagnosis and started to get sorted in 2012, by my late mother's doctor, by which time I had significant CFS and IBS, but most of the specifics you've spelled out, I had to work out between what she said (and lots she didn't say), and what my vet said about a beloved pet dog with food sensitivity issues post early vaccine. (He was a rescue). It's a rum world. Thank you for the truth. Seeing a brilliant integrative doctor in Johannesburg, South Africa now. Yes, gluten AND dairy. Do you know how many people told me I was imagining things? Could have saved DECADES of being under-par and confused about things I KNEW were a reality, if doctors had known, or maybe, had been allowed to say this back then. I just want to add, the fact that they are insisting on inoculating kids against chicken pox now - a herpes virus - I think it's criminal, and they are almost certain to get thyroid issues down the line. Sorry. I'm not a doctor. I'm only a retired nurse. But I think it's criminal. Very glad you've popped up in my feed, Dr. E. Congratulations!

      I do agree. Lipid viruses are a major body assault and the drs never distinguish between lipid viruses and other viruses. Lipid viruses never leave the body, it is stuck in the lymph system. And no one’s addresses how to rid a virus in the lymph system.
      Epstein Barr Virus is attached to the BCell Follicle and what is one of the major blood cancers?
      B Cell follicular lymphoma and they see no correlation, it’s crazy.

    Because of so many different aspects of my life I've recently, thanks to my therapist, I've come to the conclusion that I've been in fight or flight for possibly decades.
    Blood works the past couple of years have detected crazy high cortisol and tsh. The way I questioned my doctor was along the lines of "is there any way my cortisol being so high for so long that my thyroid has finally started to pack up? *, his reaction was" that's not really how it works ".
    Well, thank YOU for confirming my suspicions.

    Thank You Dr. E. I was diagnosed with Hashimotos in my 30's but I was never placed on meds or told what to do and I moved from that smart doctor who to this day has been the only one to talk to me about Hashimotos decease. As I got older, I developed Hypothyrodism and have been prescribed meds for it but its never been stabilized and has gotten worse, now am 68 and sympoms have gotten worse, have gained a lot more weight and hot flashes have never gone away. I will start with gluten free diet and get some supliments until I see my GP in 2 weeks to discuss your very in deph information and explanation about Hashimotos decease and see what if anything he has to say. I have subscribed and look forward to learning more from you. Not many doctors know about this subject!!!

    After years of dealing with allergies and chronic tonsillitis as a child, I then was diagnosed with asthma and food allergies in my late 20’s. An elimination diet and allergy shots helped yet it seemed I was allergic to everything. I developed Hashimoto’s in my late 30’s, then RA, then psoriasis. I also developed osteoarthritis and degenerative disc disease. In my late 60’s I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s again as I began getting thyroid nodules. Exhausted most of the time yet I push myself to be active. At age 66, my PCP added T3 and for the first time in years I felt like I had the energy to do things. After watching your video, I wish someone had suggested a gluten free diet. A friend’s husband has celiac disease that was diagnosed as a child and I knew that I didn’t have his symptoms. I make meals and bread from scratch so my diet is healthy by most standards but apparently it is contributing to my health issues. I am hoping that some of the autoimmune diseases will subside. Thank you for your information. I will be eliminating even more from my diet starting now.

      I have cut out all breads, boxed or canned foods over the past several years. I have cut out most carbs now too. I don't bake anymore either. I was a total insomniac which developed over years and came to a head this winter. Long story short, the day I added Iodine/Selenium (I now take 25 mg Tri Iodine) , was the day I found my whole sleep again! I've since upped to 20,000 iu of Vit D3 and several other vits/minerals. I cook from scratch. Flours in NA have Bromine added so that robs iodine from the body too, so purchase Bromine-free flour. My husband is generally on the same No-Added sugar diet and his psoriasis cleared up COMPLETELY as well as a teeth-plaque problem. Everything's healing because our immune system is being regenerated. KNOW that the American diet is meant to harm you. The big PHARMA and "FOOD" conglomerates are in lock-step to rob you of your very health- most don't believe this though, to their own detriment :( NO more doctors, "medications" and no more vaxxes! I and didn't take any Covid ones!). I'm 63 years healthy and my husband is 65- he referees circles around others in three sports. I do try to teach others but its like walking IN water- slomo! Get the book-What Doctors Fail to Tell You About Iodine & Your Thyroid by Robert Thompson, MD.

    Thank you for creating such a clear video about Hashimoto's. I was first diagnosed with Hashimoto's while trying to figure out why my system was causing me to collapse into a myoclonic seizures (muscle twitching) followed by paralysis that would last for hours, while I was completely conscious. It took me years, even decades, to recognize the triggers... I discovered if I drank a pop (Pepsi or coke particularly) I would collapse into an episode. If I drank caffeine drinks... down I would go into an episode. My menstraul system tripped my system and I would have to lay down so I didn't collapse. If I exercised, exerted myself physically too much, walked too far, or anything that blew out my energy physically, I would collapse. Once I ended up in the hospital for just about a full week coming in and out of paralysis and eventually it got so bad my breathing was stopping for short periods while in this paralyzed state.. The doctors were puzzled. Eventually decided it had to be psychological. it was not! I kept telling the doctors they needed to look at the cellular level. I finally, after three decades, got a diagnosis from a doctor in San Francisco who just pulled it off the top of her head. I couldn't believe she figured it out that quickly! I live in Canada and there is no way the doctors there would have ever discovered what it was. It is a rare disease called hypokalemic periodic paralysis.
    Today I eat a very clean diet... no sugar, no carbohydrates, no caffeine, low sodium, no dairy, no wheat, no processed foods, all natural foods with lots of raw foods added. I avoid sugar, however, my system can handle honey. Honey is natural and my body can accept it without a backlash. In the last couple of years I went off of the thyroid medication because I wanted to get off of it and go natural. In the last few months my system has been heaving (also in menopause now) so I figure my hormones are out. It may have triggered since I've been sliding off track with my diet... I know better but I was allowing some indulgences like wine, sourdough bread (since it was fermented and organic), and a few junk foods I know I shouldn't eat like cheezies and chips. Well... bingo, my system started falling apart again. So now I'm pulling my diet back into order again. It kicked me hard enough so I'm back on track.
    Question: What would be good supporting foods for hasimoto's to put my hormones back into balance? I have never been able to take B12 or B6 vitamins because they give me a reaction in any brand. I've tried many times but my system won't take it. I can eat raw foods and accept it that way no problem. I would like to know why I can't take those vitamins and what I might need to do to fix that?

    Thank you for that wonderful explanation! I was sure there was more to the story about Hosimotos than my doctors were saying. I take both T4 & T3 "bc I don't convert well." No one ever said the conversion is in the gut. I have been gluten-free for 15 years for CFS & and Fibro. I can't say it made a positive change for me, but one doctor said it would make a difference. It was easy for me to do since I cared for my Mom, who had Celiac disease. (I have had the blood test & don't have Celiac.) I also had EBV (mono) in college. I had a very stressful job for 30 years. I think I have a lot to work on. Thank you for your wonderful way of explaining the inter-relationships! I am so glad I found your channel on CZcams!

    You do not mention pregnancy triggering Hasimoto’s or other autoimmune diseases. After my first child, I dropped to 98 lbs and was tired a lot. I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s. It went away after a year on Thyroxine. It came back 15 years later when my husband died suddenly. My older sister also developed Hasimotos after her first child. It went away and came back after her second child. I also developed Sjogrens Syndrome after my third child and could barely climb the stairs with the pain in my joints. Both diseases are still with me and impact my daily life.

    Amazing!!! Excellent presentation for Hashimotos Disease!!
    I have had Myalgic Encephalomyolitis Chronic Fatigue Syndrome MECFS for many years now. I have corrected many things: my diet, supplements to take, sleep practice and mindset.
    This has led me to realize that my MECFS goes to the root cause of hypothyroidism and hypoglycemia. Most probably all this was caused by the Tetanus shot that I didn't want back in 2017. Or perhaps further back to my fainting spell which was caused by hypoglycemia in 2013.

      SAME. STORY HERE> well very similar. In 2005, before moving overseas my Dr at the time, highly encouraged me to re-do all the childhood vaccines in addition to HEPb 3-jab series. After my 2nd jab or the HEPb series, I’d had vertigo, pin prickling sensations in random roaming locations, new allergies, severe head-pain, and weird skin sensations such as a sudden felling of cold wet on a small localized location. Oh,I also had severe upper left side stomach pain and constipation. I also had anxiety and panicle attacks from the move overseas…..fast forward I ended up diagnosed with hashimotos, gluten Intolerance, plus allergies. Fast forward to 2015 when I’d gotten a rare strain of salmonella food poisoning & was hospitalized then diagnosed with a syndrome from that. In 2014, was diagnosed with Lyme disease and Idid heavy metals treatment, then Lyme treatment using herbalsand supplemts. then spent one year treating all the reactivated viruses….THEN I got covid, bad, in March 2020, and now have MECFS, fibromyalgia, long covid. I’m SO VERY SICK & tired of being sick and tired!!!!!

    Thank you for this video
    I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism 24 years ago… never told anything but to take levothyroxine. I have in the last 5 years figured out on my own that I am sensitive to wheat so I cut that out. Only thanks to CZcams videos like this have i also learned about gluten and dairy being so detrimental to my hashimoto … so I’ve recently cut that out of my diet. For the first time in a decade my neck is not sore near my lymph nodes, which can only make me think that my body was constantly fighting something and the pain in my neck ( no pun intended) was from the reaction of gluten and dairy. All my doctors ever told me was I’ll be on meds the rest of my life. No advice, no guidance… additionally, I’ve done my own research thanks to Google and CZcams, and I take many vitamins to support immunity and my thyroid all the ones that you mentioned in this video except for iodine. I don’t play around with things I’m not certain about. My thyroid is shot as one endocrinologist told me and again did not offer anything except for pharmaceutical drugs, I’m in perimenopause so now I have a host of other problems lol!!!
