Are There Natural Remedies For Hypothyroidism (2)

With the new alternative health movement and more people pushing for alternative options to heal themselves, many ask if there are natural remedies for hypothyroidism. The answer to this is not a simple yes or no. There are natural treatments, however not every natural treatment is right for everyone.

Most people automatically think about pills and supplements when it comes to natural thyroid treatment. They do not however think about the foods that they are eating and how much of an effect they can have on your thyroid. Our diets have changed greatly over the last century from eating wholesome cooked meals every day to stopping at the nearest fast food restaurant for a quick bite to eat.

A good example of this is the meat that we eat today. In decades past we would take the parts of the animals such as bones and use them to create stock soups. This provided many hormones and nutrients that come from the animal. In today’s world those parts are discarded as garbage and we only eat the meat off the bones thinking that all the nutrients are in the meat. This however is not true.

This is only one of many examples of how today’s standard diet is lacking in the proper nutrients and hormones to fight hypothyroidism. One of the best natural remedies for hypothyroidism that you can do is to begin eating a diet that supports your thyroid health instead of one that will suppress it.
