- Many patients with Hashimoto's feel frustrated. They don't like the idea of taking thyroid medication for life and they don't like the idea of feeling like there's nothing they can do to help themselves feel better.
The good news is they can do something: take supplements.
The right supplements are not only safe, they can also be effective at improving thyroid and immune function in people with autoimmune thyroiditis.
Here are 6 supplements that can help you feel better if you have Hashimoto's:
1. Zinc
Zinc helps support the immune system, thyroid function, and thyroid conversion.
My recommended zinc supplement: www.restartmed...
2. Selenium
Selenium helps increase T3 and provides protection to the thyroid gland against oxidative stress.
Selenium is also found in my recommended zinc supplement: www.restartmed...
3. Adrenal support
Adrenal adaptogens help provide energy and can be combined with thyroid glandulars for even better results.
My recommended adrenal support supplement: www.restartmed...
4. Probiotics and Prebiotics
20% of T3 is created in the gut and it's a major site of immune regulation. The easiest way to improve your gut health is by taking probiotics and prebiotics.
My recommended probiotic supplement: www.restartmed...
5. Vitamin D3 with Vitamin K2
Vitamin D3 protects your thyroid gland from thyroid cancer and thyroid autoimmune diseases while vitamin K2 helps with calcium shuttling.
My recommended vitamin D3 + K2 supplement: www.restartmed...
6. Black seed oil (Nigella Sativa)
Nigella sativa (the plant that produces black seed oil) has been shown in a double-blind placebo-controlled trial to help improve thyroid function and lower thyroid antibodies.
My recommended black seed oil: www.restartmed...

0:47 Zinc
2:56 Selenium
(DON'T buy expensive supplements eat 2-3 brazil nuts for 100% daily requirement!!! Cheap and natural)
4:12 adrenal support
6:11 pre and probiotics
8:04 vitamin d3 and k2
(Sun = d3 and K2 = gouda cheese if you are a chad, if v!rgin take supplements)
9:54 black seed oil
( I tried that for 3 months 2 tablespoons daily...no noticeable change in TSH but helps with allergies)
I simply can't understand why there are no timestamps.
If I have burning in my Thyroid I take Black seed oil and it helps so much. I also have made an essential oil roller bottle with Walnut oil and Frankincense (Boswellia) which also helps.
Thanks for mentioning black seed oil for allergies. I hope it works for me..
@@prasannakandregula2522 np mate my aunty swears by it. Before taking it she could not go outside in summer.
What I will try though is "castor oil compresses" on the front of the neck/thyroid area.
Castor oil compresses definitely helped my wife get rid of fibroids in her uterus and I read it helps with thyroid too.
You’re a great help can you also give time/schedule to consume for each supplement a day
I have done some tricks which has helped me lower my tsh levels
I started taking Zinc 2 months ago. Wow, my eyes feel so much better as a hashis patient w dry eyes.
Zinc depletes copper so make sure your zinc supplement contains copper also.
Thanks. Zinc picolinate is best
Magnesium is also very important for thyroid patients
Can you do a video on "How should a day of Hypo Thyroid Patient should look like in regards to food and medicine intake?" I mean the order in which they should take food and medicines right from the morning to night... Also how should they club all this in with the other (high sugar) diabetes or high bp medications?
I wish I had found you years ago! Thank you so much 💛
Been following you for about a year now Dr Childs. The adrenal adaptagens are a game changer for me. Keto diet in addition. Weight is still not happening though...
myo inositol was a game changer for me..great video, thank you.
How much and how long
@@smarzig I take 1/2 tsp. twice a day and have been for a year..it works with selenium so you have to get enough of that as well.
@smarzig I took 600 mg myo-inositol and 85-100 mg Selenium. You can google a paper about taking those two reduces and prevents the formation of thyroid nodules.
you are simply the best doctot
I took a selenium supplement and broke out in a ras on my face. Thank God is was only 100 mg, which I split, so I actually took 50 mg. It touted as grain, corn, etc... free.
High hopes Alphafold 3 is going to reveal what exactly triggers the autoimune response and with that, help researchers come up with a treatment for once and for all, hang in there everyone ❤
"Recent research indicates that AlphaFold 3's advanced predictive abilities can significantly speed up the drug discovery process. By mapping interactions between proteins and other molecules, AlphaFold 3 can help identify potential drug targets and design molecules that effectively bind to these targets, which is a critical step in developing new therapies for diseases like thyroid cancer and hyperthyroidism"
@lobotomizedamericans yeaah, that's good news, spep by step, we'll get there 🤞, I don't want to have to only "mask" this f'ing disease, I want the cure !
Denmark banned Ashwagandha. Just let you know. Also in UK, it is negative.
So sorry. 😢 It must be effective.
It’s been used in Ayurveda for thousands of years. I take it everyday.
Vitamin K2 but the MK7 kind not the other junk.
K2-MK7 redirects the calcium to the bones where it should be.
Other K2 done do that.
4 months ago my thyroid was 16 H,,,,, i took matter in my own hand along taking my reg. Thyroid medicine...i went on very strict detox ...yeas the tea was awful .. but for 14 day it was worth it just 2 week ago i went for my blood work and it was 2.75 (.4 - 4.75)
What was your protocal
This is too complicated for the average person to figure out. Doctors need to come up with these particular things in one supplement to take....
D3 for the whole body
ZMA (Minerals) to support
Probiotic to reduce burden on the body and especially brain
For many yrs i took 5000 of d3 and k complex or just d3+k2 ... My gut motility sucked for other reasons and constipation that can cause a grown man to plan how he will get it out and plan my life around it as well.. anyway i started taking 20k of d3 and two k complex w it plus 3 different forms of magnesium adding up to 500mg
He said zinc but didnt say u need copper as well w zinc at a 15mgzinc/1mgcopper.. need vit a to absorb zinc and it controls iodine
Thanks for this info!
Do you suggest Berberine too?
What about zinc picolinate?
When my D levels went from 68 to 50, my TPO went from 28 to 41. Now, 5,000 a day was half the dose I was taking when it decreased as opposed to 20,000 a day with 100 mcg of K2mk7 when my vitamin D hit 100.
My TSH went from 3.5 to 5 after replacing rhodiola with ashwagandha.
I've been taking MACA for a month and I'll come back for feedback
The problem is it's *extremely* difficult to tell what's going on outside of a controlled clinical setting. There are so many other factors that happen in year or even a month's time. Diet, stress, exercise, other drugs/supplements, environmental factors, etc. How can we actually know for sure that a change of supplement was the causal factor in affecting our TSH levels? It's a tough one, really.
@@lobotomizedamericans When you the same things and take the same supplements but suddenly you start taking a new one and you do a blood test and it shows something awry, it could well be that. I won't be able to find out as I've made changes to my diet to lower my TPO and stopped taking ashwagandha. There are studies that say it could be a problem to your thyroid.
@@rodrigsantsil Yeah I know what you're saying. Though I would suggest to be careful with long-term Ashwagandha use, because it has been reported to also cause "loss of emotions", and *may* worsen depression symptoms (due to its calming effects).
@@lobotomizedamericans Thanks for the tip! I stopped taking it because of the increase in my TSH. I don't know what it's like now. I'll be having another blood test in a few weeks from now. I've also stopped taking lugol after 8 years. Now that my ferritin is 122 as opposed to 41, I'm hoping to see improvement iny T3 and T4. I also suspect this tooth implant I got in 2021 might've caused problems to TSH (they didn't use zirconium). I'll increase my MACA daily dosage intake, if my TSH is still as high. Let's wait and see. Thanks for the info, doctor. God bless you and have a great day.
@@rodrigsantsil No problem you as well. And remember the best (and right) time to test thyroid related things (eg. TSH, FT3/FT4, etc.) is always in the mornings shortly after you wake up (before eating anything of course). This is because your TSH levels fluctuate through the day due to all kinds of factors. For example my TSH is completely normal in the afternoon/evening, but in the mornings its quite elevated (between 8 and 15). Some people test it all weird times of the day and never realize they have an issue because it's in the normal range.
If someone is on something like Xarelto, is the Vit D3 with Vit K2 ok? Thank you.
When should these supplements be taken
What is the dose for the black seed oil?
What about Zinc bisglycinate !?
Please get your levels of each supplement before self dosing.
I'm at a toxicity level of D3 how com I still Battle Hoshimotos? I'm taking Zinc, berries, probiotics... I'm Celiac so eating GF.
That happened to me too. 200 vit D and hashimoto
Watch Dr Bergs videos on vit d there is no such thing as vit d toxcicity
It's a lifelong disease, keep battling)
I'm fair skinned, live in the desert and need to use sun screen on a daily basis. Unfortunately, the only sun screens I don't have an allergic reaction to contain zinc oxide. Now, based on your information in this viseo, I'm concerned that using these sun screens will negatively impact my hypothyroidism. What alternatives are there?
Sunscreens are poison and speed up the cancer process.
He says don't ingest the oxide form
It will just make diarrhea
Can I take all of this if I’m on levothyroxine?
What is the best dose and form for Nigella sativa? What are the side effects?
I drank 2 teaspoons of cold pressed black seed oil per day for 3 months. As its natural there are no side effects. Some people might be allergic or something. Just start with 1 and see how your body reacts to it
Has anyone ever heard of graves disease????
What about it? it's connected to adrenal glands.
Sound quality needs some work
