If I had to heal my Hashimoto’s and hypothyroidism all over again, here’s exactly what I’d do: 1. Use Natural Desiccated Thyroid (NDT) Unlike standard synthetic T4-only options, NDT offered glandular support that made a noticeable difference in my thyroid levels, energy, mood, sleep, and metabolism. 2. Supplement with Vitamin D When I finally got my levels tested, they were in the gutter. Vitamin D is so important for immune support & thyroid health—especially for those who live in colder, gloomy climates, work indoors, or don’t get much sun exposure. 3. Prioritize Rest and Recovery Autoimmunity often flares when the immune system is overly stressed. If your body is attacking itself, it’s sending you a signal to slow down. Don’t ignore it. Prioritize rest, build habits that support quality sleep, and give your body the rest to heal. 4. Get Your Progesterone Tested Low progesterone is often overlooked, but it plays a key role in thyroid and adrenal health. It helps balance cortisol by: ▫️ Blocking cortisol at the receptor level ▫️ Supporting steady energy through healthy glucose metabolism ▫️ Shielding the brain from stress-related damage ▫️ Reducing inflammation and promoting relaxation 5. Fix Your Diet How you fuel your body matters. I focused on balance—meals built around protein, healthy fats, and fiber. 6. Manage Your Stress This became so much easier once I had a strong foundation in place: better sleep, a nourishing diet, and gentle daily movement. Stress won’t disappear, but your body can become more resilient. #hashimotos #hypothyroidism
