Recommendations:
Pay careful attention to labels, buy foods which have minimum processing and preservatives. Avoid anything which has a hydrolyzed ingredient, MSG, yeast extracts, corn syrup, evaporated cane juice etc.
Again check labels for amounts of added sugars. Don’t eat while dehydrated….drink water first. This will help you from slipping and eating something sweet or from the “no” list.
If you have a thyroid problem, I suggest staying away from Soy and Gluten as much as possibe. I was reading up on this (because I have a low metabolism due to underactive thyroid) and click on the following: Article #1 and/or Article #2
Now, I'm not saying I have Celiac Disease but I feel a lot better Gluten free, my skin is clearer, I'm less bloated, I have more energy and i lost a lot of weight. Also I will be posting something on Edocrine Distrupters AND Goitrens. BAD BAD BAD! for Thyroid issues or persons with any other Auto-Immune Diseases.
