Pitfalls To The Hypothyroid Diet Or Any Diet

By Dr. Kevin Dobrzynski


If you decide to follow the hypothyroid diet, you will enjoy something unique. It deals with specific concepts that are designed to help with thyroid problems. However, you must remember that everyone's needs are unique also.

I have an acronym for the word diet, which is -- Deliberately, Identified, as an Eating, Trend. Diets are eating trends, plain and simple. In fact, if you listen carefully to someone who's dieting they will tell you they are 'going on' a diet. If you 'go on' a diet, you usually 'go off' it at some point. Hence, eating trend.

If you approach the hypothyroid diet in the same manner as other diets, you will get similar results, and those results are not good.

If you have hypothyroidism you're not going to make a miraculous recovery overnight. This is something you will have to live with for a while. I'm not suggesting you can't cure yourself, but no diet will help you long-term if you 'go on' it. You can't assume you're going to follow this plan for 30 days and be done with it. That's not how it works. Your approach and mindset must be different.

Your mindset should be similar to this..."I need to make some permanent changes in my life if I'm going to overcome this thing that has disrupted my life."

I'm sure you've heard this before, 'diets need to be a lifestyle change'. Well, this even more important if you have hypothyroidism.

Changing your lifestyle will involve a few sacrifices, and it will not be as simple as most people think. Yet, you will notice many health benefits from your efforts. It is best thought of as an exciting adventure that allows you to journey into areas of the mind and body that you have never been before.

Diets are all about mindset. Those who start the process with the right mindset win. Those who start a diet with the idea of losing a coupe of quick pounds yet hanging on to their old mindset and habits will be disappointed.

Any kind of permanent lifestyle change must first begin in the mind, and then the body will follow along.

You may have thought about the lifestyle changes you need to make, but have you thought about the mindset change that you will need for long-term success?

If you have hypothyroidism no diet alone will cure you. However, a lifestyle change along with the right mindset and the hypothyroid diet is a recipe for long-term success.
