I was reading this thread as I have Hashimoto's, which is an immune system dysfunction (and not a nutritional deficiency), marked by your immune system's attack of the thyroid gland and subsequent inflammation. I hadn't seen anything in this thread regarding autoimmune issues, so wanted to throw that out there. Also, my endocrinologist has told me that one of the theories about the origin of Hash

I don't know specifically about Grave's disease, although I do have the antibodies for it from time to time. Overall though, I have a low thyroid (autoimmune Hashimoto's). I have started a blog on my 90-day experiment doing a natural hygiene approach to raw food. Check it out here if you're interested:

Thanks for the pointers, BartAllen. Unfortunately, I'm an old hand at this, so I know what works for me now (which is pretty much in line with your suggestions). I've been around the block a few thousand times with this raw food thing! :-)

I have started a blog that will track my journey eating an 80/10/10 / natural hygiene / fruitarian style raw food diet. I have tried and failed on raw foods many times. This time it's different, I can feel it already. Please take a read, if you're into that kind of thing.

When I stopped a 20-30 a day habit some 8 years ago, Mr. Spock from Star Trek was constantly in my head whenever I wanted a cigarette telling me, "That's not logical, Captain!" I had to tell myself over and over and over that reaching for a cigarette to stop the craving for cigarettes would NEVER work. I think what it takes is learning to just put up with the uncomfortable feeling. The

I recently started a blog about my 80/10/10 raw experiment. I am trying to heal from endocrine problems, most notably autoimmune hypothyroid. I'm relatively new to this form of raw, so please be nice!
Thanks,

I haven't had a chance to get back to this thread in a few days and I'm wondering if anyone's still checking it.
What I personally mean by "craving" is not a "bad feelings we experience when our bodies attempt to cleanse from our past dietary mistakes." That may be the SOURCE of the craving, but not the meaning itself, and that's not what I'm attempting to discuss here anyw

Thanks, Karen. I'll try that. Do you do daily colonics, and for how long -- I thought you weren't supposed to use colonics for too extended a period of time (i.e. over a week or so).
Thanks!

I am battling a thyroid problem and find that eating simple raw really helps me feel more energetic. I would like to stick to it all the time, but my cravings are out of control, and I mean OUT OF CONTROL. All I can do is think about food and it drives me crazy. I'm not hungry either. Then I cave in and have something and then, sure enough, the next day I've crashed again (like today - I slept 10

I haven't been on here in a long long time, and it's funny because I was searching for posts on thyroid illness, and there you were! I am battling low thyroid (Hashimoto's), which I've had for about a year and a half. I am currently experimenting with a high greens mostly raw diet (trying to be all raw, but the cravings get the best of me sometimes).
I was all raw for about a month of so some

I am looking to embark on a 100% raw journey (no exceptions) starting soon. I am 35 years old and the mother of two gorgeous boys, ages almost 4 and almost 2. Therefore, I'm very tired, and am looking for another way. I have hypothyroid, as well as all its accompanying symptoms. I just started hypothyroid medication recently, much to my chagrin, and don't want to be on it forever. I am also a ded
