 Healing Hashimoto's hypothyreoidism



If you’ve been diagnosed with Hashimoto’s disease, you’ve probably been told that medication is the only solution. But did you know that reducing your toxic load can actually help improve, or even reverse, many of the symptoms?

πŸ’‘ Toxins are the missing piece of the puzzle. They burden your liver, disrupt your hormones, inflame your gut, and weaken your immune system—all of which play a massive role in Hashimoto’s.

3 key protocols to support Hashimoto’s

1️⃣ Liver support protocol – Your liver is your body’s detox powerhouse, but when overloaded with toxins (from food, plastics, personal care products, and pollution), it can’t function properly. Symptoms like fatigue, breakouts, and digestive issues may be signs your liver needs support.

βœ” Start by eliminating trigger foods like gluten, dairy, soy, sugar, and caffeine.
βœ” Support detox pathways with Epsom salt baths, skin brushing, and glutathione.
βœ” Hydrate with lemon water and detox teas (dandelion, milk thistle).

2️⃣ Adrenal recovery protocol – Your adrenals regulate stress, and chronic stress worsens Hashimoto’s. Many toxins act as endocrine disruptors, further throwing your system out of balance.

βœ” Reduce inflammation with anti-inflammatory foods and adaptogens (ashwagandha, rhodiola).
βœ” Sleep in total darkness to support melatonin and hormone balance.
βœ” Swap toxic cleaning & beauty products for natural alternatives to reduce stress on your endocrine system.

3️⃣ Gut balancing protocol – Your gut is the gateway to your immune system, and leaky gut is a major driver of autoimmune diseases. Processed foods, pesticides, and plastic chemicals can damage the gut lining.

βœ” Avoid common irritants: gluten, dairy, processed foods, and artificial sweeteners.
βœ” Nourish your gut with bone broth, fermented foods, and prebiotics.
βœ” Remove endocrine disruptors: Switch to glass storage, stainless steel cookware, and natural cleaning products.

Reimagine Wellness: Gut & Brain Health with Dr. Naomi

 
Hi! I'm Dr. Naomi Dongelmans 🩷

As a medical doctor, I became disillusioned with quick fixes that only treated symptoms, leading to side effects without real healing. This inspired me to explore the transformative power of gut health, a journey that changed my life.

Throughout my life, frequent illnesses, reliance on antibiotics, and unresolved traumas left me feeling trapped in a cycle of sickness and allergies. It was only when I focused on nurturing my gut health that I truly began to harness my body's natural ability to heal.

My coaching style? No fluff, no sugar-coating, imperfect action (yes, I'm a recovering perfectionist), and the occasional loving nudge forwardπŸ’ͺ. But know this—I'm here for my online family (that's you!) every step of the way. I believe in creating success through genuine connection and support🌺.

Together, we'll turn your gut woes into wins, enabling you to lead a vibrant life that taps into your innate healing powers.
