NEVER! Hypo since age 13. Doctors have only hurt me never helped. I quit them. I am doing better since. Taking care of your own health is the only way to go. Joyce Adkins age 78 Tucson, AZ
Same with my Dr he didnt want to talk about diet just medicine. Told him I'll take out the chemicals in my diet and do labs in a few months......All labs are normal..🤷♀️
My endocrinologist laughed at me when i asked her what diet would help my hypothyroidism. Its a sad world we live in. Thank you for sharing this knowledge and giving me hope.
Don't go back! Sadly true...how can they omit DIET if we "are what we eat" . IMO...it's $$$ from big pharma..WE learn each day, how could a DOCTOR not! Best of RU-vid is my best doctor. Especially Dr. Of the Zone❤
When I said to my doctor for my diet about Grave's desies, she said "well done". And she sais to me, to stop also caffeine and hot peppers. I'm on a properly vegan diet (prescribed me from another dr.) and came into remission for 2 months. But stress regulation and good sleeping are huge factors, not only diets.
Same is with me when I asked my consultant that should I take gluten free diet for hashimotos he just laughed and said who told you this? But I think it is genetic predisposition of gluten sensitivity bcz my two children are celiac and I have hashimotos.
I have hyperthyroidism, large nodules (unbiopsied), eye pain, nervousness and extreme anxiety. What’s odd is that I’ve been made fun of for the last 20 years for being super obsessed with avoiding chemicals. Only Organic food, spring water, no household chemicals, no makeup, etc, etc. I don’t take medications or hormones so it’s just a head scratcher.
The energy you put out comes back to you. It is easy to see how positively Dr Osborne affects his audience. And although he may not know every one of us here personally I believe many people here made room for him in their hearts. Love and respect to you, Dr Osborne. May the LORD’s favors be multiplied unto you and your loved ones…
When I was diagnosed w/Hashimotos-hypothyroidism, I had just gone through a very traumatic event, was not eating right, and had the pre-disposition as my father has it. I went to my Dr. when I was extremely fatigued. My Dr at that time just told me my thyroid hormones were whack, prescribed me Levothyroxine, and sent me on my way out. There was Zero talk of diet/lifestyle changes that could help. I’ve had my TPO levels drastically go down by doing the keto diet, along with/my symptoms of hypothyroidism lessening or gone. I pray that one day all Doctors will be on the same page as you, Dr. Osborne. Thank you for all you do! We appreciate you! 🙏🏻😊
Not one doctor ever advised me what foods or fruits to eat for helping to heal my thyroid disease - only prescription pills were given. Thanks for the video. God bless you.
They want to treat us, not cure us. I believe most health concerns are cause by parasites in our bodies as we are mammals just like dogs and horses. Dogs and horses get dewormed because they can't pay to be treated as humans can
I’m learning so much from you Dr Osborne . I think Dr’s get frustrated when you try to advocate for yourself. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with the world.
Ive been off synthroid for 8 years. Gave up wheat, and ate lots of fermwnted foods.. kefir, kombucha and saurkraut, the doctor checks my blood and reminds me that he has heard people do this but i am his first patient to do it and prove it. Edit* I cant say for sure , what really worked because i teied lots of things.. i didnot eat oats and i was very strict not to eat anything with wheat.. as i were celiac serious. I added chia seeds to my coffee in the morning.. so basically i drank my coffee and then ate the coffee flavored chia pudding on the bottom. We also add just a handful if nuts . Brazil , walnuts, and almond.. before bed! Also did the concoction with the vodka and walnuts. My neck used to be very thick in the lower feont. Thats gone now and is wrinkled!!lol
Just started to watch another Doctors podcast prior to finding yours. When he got to stating a damaged thyroid ( not even sure what he meant by that, thinking he meant low throid enough to have to take medicine), I said NO THANK YOU, as I knew this was not correct. Then, moments later, I found you. Thank you so very much. I felt like I was back in medical class in college!!! I am so on it!!! Thank you, again!!!😂❤
They laughed at me too, becouse i was worried for loosing so much weight so fast. He said its becouse i stopped eating gluten, and i dont need to do that. Thank you for so much info..we really need help.
You forgot Cobalt, at least so far (around half way through) A while after getting a MoM hip replacement, ended up with hypothyroid. Also lost 20 lbs in 3 months. Synthroid does nothing for energy, just makes labs look better.
@@Touchoftayste It causes hypothyroidism amoung other things. They tried using it for anemia, back in the 1940s. Apparently side effects were too bad so it was discontinued. I guess they forgot about that when they decided to implant it right inside of people's bodies.
Hyper can not be fixed by diet . Only hypo. The best you can hope for is that you will turn hypo... like me.. and then diet for hypo. On that note.. i would rather by hypo for the rest of my life, than spend a month with hyper. I was a nut case
@@colourful64able Thank you for the infomation.I am going to have an ultrasound done next month, but after 7 days a very small swollen spot disappeared and all looked normal. I don't even know why it happened, but I was very stressed with the loss of my 2 brothers and I didn't take care of myself very well. If I have hyperthyroid what kind of cure is there! I am always taken of myself and eat very healthy but during my brothers gone, I stayed awake and only slept 1- 2 hours for months..
@@fds6720D3 and K2, selenium will help. It helped me. I started out on 30mg of methimozole when I was diagnosed 2 years ago. Today it is 2.5mg. No symptoms. I believe I may be taken off of med next Dr appointment.
@@fds6720i also had this Hyperthyroid symptoms because of the grieve i went through. Vitd3,l carnite,magnisium gkycinate is helping me to manage the symptoms. Soo i will be consultating to dctr ll keep you posted
Never. They have no idea. If you do bettter they have asked me how did l do it. I got Covid recently and my skin has dried out. Listening to you to see what l can do. Thank you for always helping especially at these times. These doctor visits are making us waste money we need today to survive these high prices on many products etc.😊
Thank you for excellent presentation dr Osborne. Finally you show relation of thyroid problems to toxic substances. My thyroid problem started when I lived couple months away from home, about 3-4 miles from Savannah Paper Mill. Changing winds were pushing all horrible fumes to my apartment complex in Pooler. Came back home very sick, discovered that my thyroid/goiter needed immediate medical attention. It was 20 years ago, lately I was forced to remove my thyroid.
Great video! I'm a nurse and I understand this better than the lesson in nursing school. I'm also getting the popular hormone therapy... now I'm thinking twice!
Because they don't want you to heal naturally. Would that give the big pharma income? No. So there is no proper education on the University, apart from prescribing medicines. But that they teach well.....
I shared this video with my wholistic doctor who is also a friend. Thank you for doing the hard work, you are saving the lives and money of people that you will never meet.
Thank you so much Dr Osborne! Your video has given me relief and answers all the questions about graves disease/ hyperthyroid I have for so many years! You empower me to find a different Endocrinologist and get a second opinion.
Thank You for this video. For the past year my doctor has had me on a yo-yo trying to figure out my Thyroid. Now she's sending me to an Endoctinologist. I will take this info with me and will be armed with the knowledge I've needed all along. Thank You so much.
No doctor told me anything about a diet I figured if I figured out how to control my thalassemia maybe there is hope for my thyroid so here I am to learn from you
I am hypothyroid and was never told by the doctor that diet could help me. After experiencing daily inflammation until my clothes were not fitting me, I finally went gluten, dairy and sugar free. Iflammation gone now, feeling great, went hyperthyroid when I gave them up, so quickly after 2 weeks had to reduce levothyroxine by 25mcg each day, after 2 weeks started to be hypothyroid again, so upped levothyroxine by 25mcg every other day. Still feeling great, eyesight better, brain fog gone, lost 2 kilos. Thanks Dr. Osbourne, your videos are helping me educate myself to manage my own thyroid.
Great info. Thanks so much. I’ve been on Synthroid for longer than I can remember. Probably in excess of 20 years. Last 2 doctors never suggested anything but medicating for life. They are both retired now and I no longer have a GP to work with so looking for ways to get off the synthroid. Always been told you stay on this med and eventually the thyroid dies as a result so I’m hoping with the right information and good habits, I can steer it back to a healthy functioning gland.
THANK YOU!!! This is one of, if not thee most thorough, informative and easily explained video on thyroid issues, causes and way to help naturally keep it functioning well, that i have ever watch- you have a new subscriber! Please keep making these most helpful, informative videos. God bless!🤗👍👍👍
Iodine evaporates very very quickly from salt (a few months since they put on it, not since you buy it) and kelp has plenty of heavy metals 🤔.Search información, I did it
What's the research on thyroid issues post-covid jab? My niece (in her 20s) was healthy until after she got the jab to keep her job, now her thyroid is dying & her doctor has been discussing a drastic medical procedure & a lifetime of medication for her.
I found out a second cousin of mine has Hashimoto's when I started looking up videos on youtube I realized all these people where having most of the symptoms I've been dealing with for several years now. I had tried speaking with my GP's over the years about specific symptoms not thinking they could be related or I'd think maybe it was caused by medication I've been taking. But every time I brought something I was concerned about they were make it seem like I must be not getting enough sleep (exhausted all the time) or I'm just getting old (when I asked at 27 about my joint pain which has gotten worse over the years. I assumed it was side effects my cholesterol meds or statins cuz I couldn't think what else it could be but going off them didn't help me) or the latest very severe now one that is very troubling to me which is fog brain & memory problems. I'm scared I'm gonna lose my job at this point because I literally feel stupid, I forget so much it literally feels like IQ dropped completely. I'm 37 years old and my mother at 67 has better memory then I do. Last year I was rushed to the ER, I started having all these issues with gas I guess that filled up my chest cavity made it hard to breathe & had pain in my chest I thought it was my heart (I have familial hypercholesterolemia, found out I had high cholesterol at age 17 & my younger sister was 14 who has it as well) but then I started having inflamed intestines very tender and painful with if felt like anything I ate so I went on a liquid diet for a week only drinking chicken broth, water, and tea. I was scared to eat anything. Then I started eating chicken and very very slowly adding some things back I was terrified the pain & bloating would come back. It's been a full year now the only thing I know for certain is Gluten definitely causes my intestines to inflame but I've had only minimum dairy too. I know I need blood test to confirm Hashimoto's but I'm scared I spent so much money & time over the years getting tested for anything the GP could think of and none of them came back abnormal. They started talking to me like it was all in my head or that I was a hypochondriac so I stopped going to the doctors completely, I've lost faith in doctors so it's been a full year since I've seen one but I'm still struggling bad with symptoms the brain fog & memory loss being the worst at the moment, fatigue always plagues me, & a few days ago the joint pain came back with a vengeance after being gone for at least 6 months now (I don't know why it's back). I would like to have confirmation that I'm not crazy and it is Hashimoto's I just haven't worked up the nerve to go back to the doctor yet, I can't take the disappointment of not having a name for it or being treated like a crazy person or nuisance again by the doctors/nurses.
My partner had a dream from Jesus to stop drinking the whey protein cause it was sweetened by surculose. We didn't know why at the time only that surculose was bad so we stopped the same day. Now I know why. When Jesus speaks we jump to say Sir, yes sir as He will save your life and trust we will get the reasons why later.
I enjoy this video. I have a thyroid nodular, but I don’t think this video is for me and also your videos are so long that most people don’t have time to watch it your video all the way through, but I do enjoy them when I have time to watch it.
I currently have TED and Graves so I am familiar with some of the things you mentioned. However, there were so things that I was not aware of and am very thankful for you. My endo only suggested GF and methimazole. I'm such a picky eater. 2 years ago I did the smoothie thing and just felt worse and gained a ton of weight. Look forward to learning more.
I have all the issues and only one doctor tested me, my doctor told me to change my diet and what to eat. I also have high cholesterol, high sugar and damaged kidneys. I though I had a healthy diet, don't drink alcohol don't smoke, don't take drugs. So it was a shock, I am lucky that I have a good blood pressure. So I have to have the test again in 3 months 🤞
Thank you for the education concerning hypothyroid disease. No dr has ever(been dealing with it for over 30 years) discussed diet related causes. They would say lack of iodine caused it. They told me there was no cure and take a pill for the rest of my life.
You are amazing. Finally answers to Thyroid issues. Thank you so much. My poor thyroid doesn't have a fighting chance. You are correct in about the medical field they need to know what you know.
My daughter went to a different doctor and she upped her medication to 250 micrograms synthroid when she was only taking 150 micrograms and I've noticed she's gained a lot of weight! I told her to go to a different doctor so she is going to a hormone specialist I hope he's/ she can help her i sent her and my other daughters this video. Thank you for sharing this with us ..2 of my children have Hoshimotos plus me there mother! 😔
Never! My doctor did not discuss diet when I was diagnosed with low thyroid function, put lots of weight even though I'm a poor eater. I was very slim until my 40's around the time I was diagnosed with thyroid problems.
my tsh was too high, doctor raised my medicine generic trident but states levothyroxine sodium capsules, and stopped my t3 med., and took blood draw again the TSH too high, but t 3 and t 4 normal, however I have all the issues like hot flashes, etc. that you mentioned end of the video. This is awesome info. I would go to holistic doc but insurance doesn't pay for it.
I appreciate this video. None of my Drs ever talked about diet with me. They wouldn't even talk to me about thyroid. Even though I had all the symptoms. I'm also celiac. I'm very suspicious I have hashimoto's, because I had elevated antibodies when tested, but they told me that was OK. Finally I got better by taking NDT. My goiter DISAPPEARED. I was happy about that. I'm not optimal, but they refuse to help me with finding the right dose or anything else. I'm on a gluten free diet. Gluten gives me major problems.
The more I listen to this, the worse I feel.. I mean, I am very thankful to Mr.Osborne for providing such valuable info, but it's impossible to stay away from all of these harmful elements. I should move to a far away island, produce my own plants and meet, make soap, toothpaste and clothes from natural ingredients, make my own clay dishes and wooden spoons (I actually use wooden fork, spoon and knife because I am allergic to nickel in addition to my Hashimoto's and dust mite allergy). I hope that we will fight our way out of the corrupted and poisoned world we live in, at least some day.. Unfortunately that's not going to happen in my lifetime.
Amen! Thank you! You just so eloquently expressed what I was thinking while watching this. Great presentation! I get his point but we'd have to bubble wrap ourselves and isolate from modern society. Holy cow! That's a lot of things to avoid and consider and be aware of and to implement and to do and not to do. oh my!
What should the diet and exposure be like for a 66 year old taking Armor Thyroid in good shape with low energy. Diagnosed with Hypothyroidism with Hashimotos antibodies . I’m watching your video , it seems like we can get exposed to almost everything. I am writing notes based on this video. But it seems like everything is on the list!
I was about 21.. I ate candy. My doc said nothing about diet. I am 64 still on the same medication Levothyroxine was 100 mcg and for years now 88mcg. Ate sweets, breads, spaghetti, rice... Got up to 200 lbs. Down to 171 lbs and up n down with candy b/c of my weakness. My boss buys candy and I work at the front desk with it. Some months I have victory some it's a big fail
Lots to digest here! At one time I was craving grapefruit. I ate it everyday, couldn't get enough. I went from hypo to hyper and once I quit eating grapefruit, went back to hypo. Any thoughts?
I am on Rituxan infusions for RA , I started gaining weight after first infusion, I get debilitating leg cramps, constipation,low body temp,weakness, fatigues , eyesight changes ,headaches , and so on . I went to dr numerous times and was just told to take vit E . Continued to get worse until finally they did a tsh test , there is was after 18 months they finally listened ,only after I beg for help
@@kay4725 I stopped eating gluten and all grains. I went Gluten Free. Then totally Gluten Free. Then grain and dairy free. There’s nothing much left to eat other than meat/eggs, etc. I had to give up bananas apples and all fruits. Basically went full keto then carnivore. I have to eat a lot of fat. I occasionally eat a potato on major holidays as a treat. My TSH is Normal, and it took me about a month to get off the levrothhroxin. After I quit gluten, my levrothyroxin was to powerful and I was having big side effects. Then Getting off that was some of the most difficult withdrawal symptoms I have ever experienced.
@@deborahyoung2415 because it was making me sick. I couldn’t believe it when I realized bananas were making me sick, it sucks. I miss bananas. Then apples were giving me heartburn. I think I could still be eating oranges and grapefruit, but at this point, I’m gonna eat what my body likes and go with that for a “while. I will never forget the moment I determined when bananas were making me sick. Nor the moment I woke up 3-days after quitting gluten and feeling ALIVE again.
I was well aware of all these problems and toxins that contribute to thyroid disease, but I never heard of artificial sweeteners since sugar causes cancer and other diseases. I opted for sweet and low and have used it since I was a little girl. You did not mention it in your lecture as the thyroid disruptor, so can I assume that it’s not harmful to the thyroid like sucralose. What about chlorinated swimming pools? I noticed a lot of the water polo players were losing their hair. Could this be the reason why my son now has a 3 cm nodule?
My Dr. said diet won't help. Had to ask him three times what kind of med he wanted to put me on. Had to ask him two times what is supposedly wrong with my thyroid. I don't have the symptoms that's associated with thyroid problems but he put down fatigue, something I never brought up with him. All about blood work he never reviewed with me.
I’m from the UK had underactive thyroid since 17 years. Never saw a specialist or met a dr that discussed cause/diet/cure. I have brain fog low energy but main problem is memory has become very weak. Unfortunately due to family and health never got a chance to go gluten/dairy free. Appreciate advice from anyone as feel like I’m slowly dying at 48😢
Selenium, Iodine, Zinc, Magnesium, Vit D. No Gluten, no process Food, no caffeine, no alcohol, sugar free, non gassy veg! Weights,Walking,Cycling, min 4x a week. Pranayama breathing and eating meats,seafood, blueberries. LIVE LONG AND PROSPER 🖖
Dear Dr Osborne,I am amazed by the depth of your knowledge of the Thyroid and I will be most grateful for your expert advtIce In June 2022,myTSH level was 0.5310, but a year later it dropped to0.1476. My doctor suggested I stop taking my, Multi vitamin...Revital for Woman and a Probiotic...Vibact.With this it came up to 4 .199 I found that when I restarted the supplements,myTSH level again went down to 0.1476.,Again stopped the supplements for 6 weeks and my TSH level rose to 0.2412, but not as high as the first time.MyT3,T4,FT3 and FT4. are all within normal limits and I have no other symptoms of Hypothyroidism except for sone Constipation and mild hair loss ,so no medication has been prescribed.Can u please diagnose the cause for this and what I need to do?Will be most grateful.
I have been asking my primary doctor and endocrinologist if the diet will help or food and drinks that I need to wary for my hypothyroidism no one informed me anything. Thank you!
No, my doctor and many before her (I keep searching for answers by switching) have never spoke to me about diet. They just tell me go on a diet. I’m a complete sugar/dairy addict screaming for help because I’ve not been able to break it myself. All I get is “you want candy? Eat 1 piece. You want ice cream just eat less.” As if it’s that simple. Or I’d have broke it a decade ago. No diet tips of what not to eat whatsoever and I’ve never been to a specialist. I was told it was not necessary when I asked. I’m dying.
DR OSBORNE Have you ever ed into the impact of PERCLOATE in drinking water or ground water? It has a tremendous negative effect on the Thyroid, including babies on formula.
Just found out TSH is 12.5, TPO is 126. T3 is 82 and T4 Free is .66. I have never had issues before. I have always been on the low end of TSH. I've been trying to figure out what happened for such a sudden change. I have already changed my diet over this last month, cutting out processed foods, sugar, gluten, seed oils and pretty much every vegetable and fruit. Doctor has now put me on levothyroxine which scares me to be on medication. How can I fix this?
20 years of ra and hypothyroidism and no answers from doctors. I started carnivore. Coffeeis my Aquiles hill but I was on vegan for 3 months and coffee was out and no better ra much worse. All those juices almost killed me and 5 times to toilet a day and diarrhoea. I don’t know how I managed. But at least I can say vegan is worse than anything even though I was off gluten for 3 month. Solved gut with raw milk kefir home made. Solved jorgen dry eyes with raw milk kefir on eyes, not even water. Managed to find n7 eye cream ok. Organic creams and organic shampoo. Just soap. Several years with changes but ra still here. Started carnivore today. Great video. Methotrexate never worked for me. Anti tnf worked on pain but hands and feet are being deformed. I still have to take methotrexate. When doctors say the new meds work for ra they surely are lying.
