@bstrudel1 Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect! I’m glad that you’re here. Have you had Hashimoto’s for long? If you have any questions about it, this is the place to ask!

@becsbuddy Thanks for the welcome! I was diagnosed about 5 months ago, but looking back, I had symptoms for about two years. I found a clinic in Charleston SC that deals with thyroid diseases and they have been helpful. Thank you!

Hi, Becky -
I have Hashimoto’s and was told by a naturopath clinic to avoid sugar completely, even mayonnaise and sweet pickle relish. Then I finally was able to see an Endocrinologist who said “everything in moderation.” So how much sugar do you think is okay to consume? I know everyone is different, but I am interested in your thoughts?
Thank you!
