Dr. Westin Childs Podcast: Thyroid | Weight Loss | Hormones

The quick answer to the question: Yes, but only in about 10% of the population (based on my estimates and experience). And by reversed I am talking about a 100% complete remission where you are not taking thyroid medication, where your thyroid antibodies are zero, your weight is normalized, and you do not have any symptoms of hypothyroidism. Other people can experience anywhere from minor to major improvements with natural therapies, but the degree that they will improve depends on their individual circumstance. Hashimoto's thyroiditis is an autoimmune disease which will eventually result in the complete destruction of your thyroid gland. In the conventional setting, most doctors do not do any treatment for Hashimoto's except using thyroid medications and/or surgery (in some cases). This means that it's up to you to find the treatment you need to fix your condition. If you are interested in reversing Hashimoto's or in treating your condition naturally then you will have more luck getting treatment
