3 Supplements For Thyroid Eye Disease
Thyroid eye disease (TED) is an autoimmune condition where the immune system attacks the tissues of the eyes.
While supplementation can be very helpful in treating thyroid eye disease, the bigger goal should be to find and remove your triggers. The best results come from supplementation alongside diet and lifestyle changes such as eating an anti-inflammatory diet and reducing stress and your toxic load.
Today I’m sharing the top three supplements I recommend for thyroid eye disease and bonus supplements that many people find helpful.
During this episode, you’ll learn about:
