Hi Beautiful! You know what really lights a fire under me? When people are told there's nothing they can do about their autoimmune thyroid condition, Hashimoto's “Just take the tablets,” they’re told. “Diet won’t make a difference. Just accept it” I’ve been saying for years that this simply isn’t true—and now, I’ve got some solid research to back it up. 👉 A new study looked at how ancestral or ‘paleo / primal-style’ diets impact autoimmune thyroid disease… and the results were pretty amazing. Now don’t worry—I’m not going to bombard you with heavy science. But if you’re the curious type, here’s the research paper with proof (it’s a bit dense): The Effects of the Paleo Diet on Autoimmune Thyroid Disease: Here’s the short version:📌 Every single study they reviewed showed clinical improvements in people with autoimmune thyroid conditions when they followed an ancestral (paleo/primal) diet. 📌 One showed significant improvements. 😮 Yes, resolution.Let that sink in.!! 😮 This way of eating—stripping things back to what we’re biologically wired to thrive on—has the power to calm the immune system and reduce thyroid antibodies. And it’s exactly the approach I took when I hit rock bottom years ago. I was vegetarian (almost vegan), overweight, exhausted, and getting nowhere with the standard advice. So I did a full 180 and started experimenting with a modified paleo/primal way of eating—something that felt completely radical at the time. Fast forward to today… [My last test came back pretty much undetectable}. 🔥 ⚖️ Something we are led to believe is impossible, especially as we hit menopause or our 50's. It's not impossible once you start fueling your body the way it is designed for And I see this transformation in my clients too—because the way we eat matters. Despite what some endocrinologists tell us!!! Because i know THIS WORKS AMAZINGLY WELL for those of us with hypothyroidism and/or Hashimoto’s 👉 It's what I teach my 1to1 clients 👉 And its the basis of what we do in
So what does a Paleo or Primal style diet for thyroid health look like? ✅ ❤️ It means nourishing your body with what it needs. 👉 If you can, ask your doctor to run a full panel of vitamin and mineral tests. You may be low in some of the nutrients that can really move the needle when it comes to calming the immune system. Your tiny but mighty action steps:
And just remember: They’re wrong. Wrong. WRONG! We now have the PROOF! There’s so much you can do. You’ve just got to take your health, weight and energy back into your own hands—one primal, powerful bite at a time. Love, PLEASE NOTE - I am NOT a Doctor or Medical Professional of any kind. |

Hi Reader, Somewhere between the 1970s and now, something was lost. Not misplaced. Not forgotten by accident. Quietly. Gradually. Piece by piece. And if you have ever sat in a waiting room being told your results are normal while knowing, in your bones, that something is very wrong – you are living in the gap that was left behind. People ask me all the time for book recommendations on thyroid health. There are two I come back to every time. But one of them stops me in my tracks every single...
Hi Reader, I joined a group last week that I had no business being in. A peptide group. Free to join. I went in for a nosy, because peptides are the thing everyone's talking about right now, and I wanted to see what the fuss was about. I didn't post anything. Just scrolled. And then I found a thread that made me stop. Someone had written in about a friend. The friend has Hashimoto's. And she was asking, quite innocently, what peptides might be good for her, on top of the medication she's...
Hi Reader, I read something this week that made me genuinely happy. And then it made me a little sad. And then it made me want to write this email. NICE – the body that sets clinical guidelines for the NHS – has just announced draft guidance recommending that people with PMOS (previously known as PCOS - Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) should receive annual reviews. Not just a quick check-in on the main symptoms. A proper, structured review. Covering the knock-on effects. The wider picture. The...
