You can choose which one would be of most benefit to you.

RDA for zinc:
~8 -15mg/day (women)

📍Upper safe limit:30-50 mg/day from supplements (unless directed by a doctor)

🚩Too much zinc can interfere with copper and iron absorption.

🚩Always keep zinc - iron- magnesium apart - usually 2 hours between each is enough.

🚩Also keep iron, magnesium, calcium, zinc 4 hours away from ANY thyroid medication 💊

📌 📌OPTIMAL PROTOCOL

There isn’t a one-size-fits-all “optimal protocol” for thyroid treatment, because it really depends on whether someone has a thyroid gland, how well they convert T4 to T3, other health issues, and how they respond to medication.

For many, starting with a good quality T4 replacement (like levothyroxine, or Tirosint) works well if their body can convert it properly.

For others, especially with ongoing fatigue, brain fog, or a genetic variation like DIO2 or DIO3, a combination of T4 and T3, or sometimes NDT (natural desiccated thyroid), may feel more balanced.

Alongside medication, optimising nutrients (iron, selenium, zinc, vitamin D, B12, magnesium), managing stress, supporting gut and liver health, and pacing lifestyle changes can make a big difference.

The “optimal protocol” is really the one that gives you both optimal labs and good quality of life — and it usually takes some trial, fine-tuning, and a doctor who listens to symptoms, not just numbers.

🦋What nutrients does your thryoid need to function optimally?

⚠️If you are deficient in any of those then it can lead to a thyroid disorder.

👉Iodine – Essential building block of T4 and T3. Without iodine, the thyroid literally cannot produce hormone (but excess can worsen autoimmunity).

👉Zinc - is needed for TSH production and for the conversion of FT4 to FT3. It’s also needed to create proper amounts of stomach acid, which enables the body to utilize the nutrients in your food.

👉Iron - The body needs iron to make TPO (thyroid peroxidase), which is then used to make the thyroid hormone FT4. When the body is deficient in iron, FT4 levels can drop, putting the body in a hypothyroid state. You also need iron to convert FT4 to the active FT3, so low levels of iron can cause a decrease in FT3. This can lead to weight gain, low energy, etc.

👉Selenium - is important for the conversion of FT4 to FT3 in the liver. It also helps to support the thyroid in making thyroid hormones.

👉Magnesium - is an essential mineral for thyroid function and for the conversion of T4 to T3. Studies have shown that low magnesium is associated with a higher risk of increased TgAB, and increases the prevalence of Hashimoto’s.

👉Vitamin D – Modulates the immune system and is especially important in autoimmune thyroid conditions like Hashimoto’s.

👉Vitamin B12 – Supports energy production and nerve function; deficiency commonly overlaps with hypothyroid symptoms.

👉Tyrosine – Amino acid backbone of thyroid hormone (T4 and T3 are made from tyrosine + iodine).

👉Copper (in balance with zinc) – Assists in iron metabolism and indirectly supports thyroid hormone production.

Optimal thyroid function isn’t just about hormone levels — it depends on having the right nutrient environment for production, conversion, protection, and cellular activation.

A variety of foods throughout the week is a great way to get in all of the various different nutrients if that is not possible then you should op for supplementation.

Good eating habits that result in good health start at home.

Cook at home, eat fresh foods, add vegetables to your dish, drink water.
Avoid eating out or ordering in, stay away from sugary drinks, snack on fruits and vegetables.
You don’t need change your entire routine at once, that will usually leave you overwhelmed. Small changes equal big results.

12/18/2025

You were never broken.
You were never cursed.
You were never under attack by your own body.

That is not what autoimmunity is.

Autoimmunity is not self destruction.
It is intelligent self defense in a toxic world.

What we call autoimmunity is a misunderstanding of biology.
We see immune activity at the surface and label it a mistake, without understanding why it exists.

Your body is not malfunctioning.
It is responding.

It is responding to overload, toxins, mold, parasites, viruses, metals, and food particles leaking into the bloodstream.
It is trying to survive in conditions it was never designed for.

Your immune system is not attacking you.
It is trying to protect vital organs from ongoing threat.

But when the gut becomes permeable, when infections hide in tissues, when detox and drainage pathways are blocked, that response becomes chronic.

The immune system stays activated, not because it is confused, but because the danger signal never stops.

It begins tagging anything that resembles a threat, even if it looks like you.

And the science already supports this.

Autoimmune conditions are often triggered by infections, microbial burden, and toxic exposure, far more than genetics alone.

Viruses and bacteria do not just mimic proteins.
They infect cells, disrupt function, and embed in tissues.

Your immune system targets infected or dysfunctional cells to prevent wider damage.

This is seen in Type 1 diabetes, where infections can lodge in the pancreas and the immune system clears infected beta cells to protect the whole body.

That is not betrayal.
That is intelligence.

You do not need suppression.
You need support.

You need detox and drainage.
You need nervous system regulation.
You need to remove what is driving the response and rebuild what is missing.

Autoimmunity is the body saying,
“I still care. I am still fighting.”

Honor that signal.
Help the body finish the job.
