• Avocado, banana, cacao, agave nectar, dash of seasalt. Chocoate pudding! Blend all ingredients with enough water to move it. This has the taste and texture of Jell-O pudding (without the chemicals).

• It sounds like thyroid problems. I would not eat those foods suggested that contain goitrogens (strawberries, kale, flaxseeds and many more not listed here) and increase iodine either by supplementation or by eating seaweed or algae (particularly ke…

• Apples and lemons also contain acetic acid. The type that you use in a lab differs from that found in nature. I use apple cider vinegar in salad dressings and I take a teaspoonful in water following colloidal iodine (which I take for hypothyroid). A…

• I think you'd like it. It ia a rich source of protein and makes gel similar to flaxseed. It make a good binder in dehydrated cookies, bread and crackers. It thickens salad dressings and makes a good pudding. It's very versatile as a food and it work…

• I don't eat dairy. I don't eat processed foods. I don't eat wheat or anything containing gluten or gliadin and I don't eat corn or potatoes. I still try to combine foods correctly. I just stopped eating raw foods with goitrogens (cruciferous vegetab…

• I was a raw vegan for almost 5 years and I developed hypothyroidism. I'm a lacto-vegitarian now, on a trial basis, and I'm doing better. There are food toxins in raw food that, if not prepared correctly (soaking, sprouting, fermenting, cooking), can…

• Thank you. I haven't been posting but I have kept up with the recipes. The group has really changed, there are lots of new members and lots of older ones aren't posting regularly. It's good to see that you're still here.

  in hypothyroidism- experience, advice? Comment by alpdesigns
• I have hypothyhroid symptoms. My TH4 was tested and it came back within range. I think there is a problem with the TH4 making T3. I stopped eating foods with goitrogens (iodine blockers), started taking colloidal iodine and continue to eat brown sea…

• I eat it occasionally and the magnesium that cacao contains has positive effects on me if I don't eat it continually. It over-stimulates the thyroid and causes me to be weak if i eat it several days in a row. It contains theobromine and caffeine, tw…

• Most commercial spices are not raw (they’re irradiated) and many are sprayed with chemicals. You can buy organic spices from www.frontiercoop.com

• I have used Nutiva Hemp Protein Powder. Now I just eat the whole shelled seeds. Protein powder makes my smoothies too gritty, floury tasting. The seeds make a smoother consistancy.

• I totally agree. If it comes from a book it generally has copyrights and shouldn’t be plagerized.

• Different strokes… I can’t eat tomatoes or other nightshades (tomatoes, potatoes, eggplant), peppers don’t bother me though. I think people have different food sensitivities. There are some vegetables that contain large amounts of cellulose (legumes…

• Don’t use PAM! If you have to, wipe coconut oil on the Teflex. I had the same problem once with the banana pancake recipe that I posted. The rounds would not peel off until I dried them longer. I started making them into whole sheets, cutting them l…

• I like my OsterFusion blender. It has a two directional blade, a glass jar and all metal drive. I broke mine recently and the company (Oster) sent a new one, no charge. I bought it online from JC Penny for $79.00 last year. It blends smoothly. I use…
