Guest guest Posted October 28, 2004 Report Share Posted October 28, 2004 You do have to keep in mind that when you get right down to it human beings are omnivores and there are amino acids that our bodies NEED that we can only get from meats. Depriving those amino acids, and the ones that our bodies manufacture from those building blocks, especially from folks with other health issues, including thyroid, greatly increases the stresses to the body. I'll stop with that..... Topper () On Wed, 27 Oct 2004 20:28:07 -0700 Gipsi_Moon writes: Wow thank you! My 3 kids are vegetarian...25,21 and 7.)topper2@... wrote: Beans are good...

Guest guest Posted October 28, 2004 Report Share Posted October 28, 2004 , People are hypo for the most part despite what they eat--- I got my hashimoto's from my mothers' family.It is an auto-immune disease. I was told that to heal - I need meat protein.You are much more apt to have deficiencies eating a vegetarian diet. With thyroid disease, our systems are so much more compromised and we have a lot of nutritional deficies because of our absorption and other factors-- this is Beta Carotene, Iron, and the B Vitamins especially.
