I really hesitate to be frank here, because it sounds so crazy. but i have been reacting very badly to anything organically grown for years, including clothing. i have some theories but don't really know why. could be they fertilize with fish source stuff, and anything from the ocean tends to really bother me, with heavy metals and pollutants and possibly iodine. anyway, it's ironic that the stuff that could be best for me hurts me so much. as a note, i seem to react to stuff in concentrations that even insects can deal with. it's what i call a sci-fi illness.

Glandular extracts are another option. Getting any flouride out of your diet and replacing with another mineral ending in "ide" can help restore the thyroid. Armor Thyroid is another option. Killing the bugs and deoxifying the contaminants that initiate the endocrine dysfunction may, in time, lead to a normalization of thyroid, pituitary, hypothalamus and adrenal glands. A balanced amino acid formula to address any deficiencies may be a helpful adjunct for a while.
