I've switched to a paleo/FodMap diet to help figure out some of my guts issues and I've noticed that my stomach is much, much, much happier without lactose (always been a bit sensitive but now not even yogurt), gluten (eczema went away with the wheat), and not so much low carb as just reasonable carbs. My energy is also significantly higher than it has been in years -even though I've had stable Thyroid hormones for quite a while and am pretty happy with my dosage.

Another huge plus is my husband is on the same diet, he has Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease and chronic fatigue and has had far fewer sick days due to fatigue since going on this diet with me.

I eliminated gluten and dairy for my daughter (Hashimotos) and it reduced her flares, she lost weight and had more energy. My goal is to also eliminate these from my diet to see if it will help me. I had a holistic dr. tell me that gluten and dairy contain inflammatory agents (don't know if that's true, but sounded like good motivation).
