Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis is an autoimmune disorder in which the body’s natural immune system goes into overdrive and produces an excess of antibodies that attack the thyroid gland. And the fallout isn’t fun.
Symptoms such as fatigue, weight gain, hair loss, and cold intolerance are all too common. Oh, and depression. But who wouldn’t feel depressed after all this?
In my article “Healing Hashimoto’s“, I discussed the legendary benefits of black seed oil, used for more than 3,000 years for a variety of conditions. It is high in thymoquinone which exhibits powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Participants in the study referenced below received 2 grams of black seed oil daily. The results were astounding: TSH levels decreased significantly, and T3 levels rose. Their thyroid antibodies were also reduced.
I would estimate that approximately 80% of my clients have suffered from this problem over the years. Many of them found relief by adding cold-pressed Black Seed Oil to their daily diet.
For most adults, one teaspoon per day is recommended. Of course, you’ll want to consult your personal health care physician to ensure this is the right dosage for you.
