Re: Cook Book and Diet recommendations for Hashi's

Courtenay, My diet is not the best right now. I am eating too much sugar and caffeine. I am going to the Whole Foods in Arlington to look for the 365 chocolate and other things. I know I need more protein in my diet or I get shaky when I don't get it. I guess more complex carbs might help too. Do you mind sharing what type of diet you are on? Thank you! Deborah

Hi,

Can you tell me the name of the Broda book that you use. There

are a couple of them listed. Is the diet in " Hypothyroidism: The

Unsuspected Illness " ? I have a similar problem with having to eat

every couple of hours, and it's not just a hunger pang, I feel ill,

dizzy and I can't put a sentence together properly if I wait too long.

Thanks... Judy

Courtenay, Thank you. I will look for the book. Is it the book called Hypothyrodism? She has several books. My main concern is my job. I am out of town (flight attendant) 3-5 days at a time. Our layover time at hotels is short (8-9 hours only sometimes). It presents problems in keeping foods from spoiling. Are there foods on this diet that are shelf stable with lots of protein that I can take on my trips? I end up eating at a lot of airport restaurants (fast food) during the trips. Deborah

Judy - That's the book.

Is the diet in " Hypothyroidism: TheUnsuspected Illness " ?

The book you mentioned is the one. I would recommend

conferring with your doctor before making any big

dietary changes. Also, your body will go through a

ten day detox in which you will feel funky and crave

carbs like a madman. If you can get through that

part, I believe you will feel increasingly better.

That diet saved my life. And it lowered my

cholesterol.

Oh, and by the way, I never got hunger pangs or

warnings for my blood sugar meltdowns. I went from

feeling okay to crummy in no time flat.

I now eat two meals a day, and one snack. (If I was

working more, I would eat three meals a day and two

snacks.) My weight no longer fluctuates wildly. I

do, however, carry food with me in case my blood sugar

drops.

Best wishes--

Courtenay.

OOOOH, MILLET. I always forget about the scary

goitrogenic millet because I don't eat bread.
