natural remedies for hyperthyroidism

[kalasyn]

I want to try curing or managing my hyperthyroidism naturally.  Does anyone have suggestions for what supplements I can take?  At the moment, I take evening primrose oil, vitamin C and I eat lots of peanut butter because I read somewhere that it is a goitrogen (inhibits thyroid function).

On what basis were you diagnosed as being hyperthyroid?  Was it based on symptoms, or test results?  If test results, please post, along with reference ranges.

i ALSO have proof of hyperthyroidism curing itself. I was diagnosed about a year ago at my gynocologist and sadly forget if i ever took the information to my pcp. Therefore, I seriously forgot about the hyperthyroidism for a whole year. My gyno reminded me at my annual visit a few days ago, I got my blood tested again and it was gone!!! Dont ask me how because i dont know what i did to cure it..

Actually, there are things that can naturally cure hyperthyroidism, depending on the cause. In the case of Graves, the cause is the autoimmune system overstimulating and attacking the thyroid. So the natural solution is to find out what is upsetting your immune system. Which could be stress, or something you are allergic to, or not getting enough sleep, or deficiencies in various things, iodine, magnesium, selenium, or myriad of other things.

If you are prescribed methimazole, you MUST take it. But then you should seek out natural improvements to your system both experimentally, and consulting doctors to diagnose your immune system and your allergies. If you track it down, improve your lifestyle, you MAY, if you are lucky, be able to wean yourself off the tabs.

You can heal your thyroid,  i have proof and in the process of healing mine as well.

I am reversing my diet so I can slow it down, with that being said,  i am referring my thyroid to a natural expert and in August going to  have my blood drawn and my mineral levels checked.

I highly advise anyone with this and am the opposite of hyper thyroid not to self diagnose themselves or anyone else who inquires of what to do as this should be handled by someone else who has studied this and can honestly prescribe to you the correct measures of supplements and food quantities.
It is more than eating broccoli, peanut butter and other foods that will calm the organ down.

I know that this is an old post...but I just wanted to say that drinking coke is not a good alternative to get rid of your headache!  Coke is bad for you.  Soft drinks are one of the unhealthiest things you can put in your body.  Read this:  http://nutritionresearchcenter.org/healthnews/what-happens-to-your-body-if-you-drink-a-coke-right-now/
