In addition to biological plausibility for thyroid suppression with soy consumption, a randomized, double-blinded study showed a threefold increase in the development of clinical hypothyroidism among women with subclinical hypothyroid levels when supplemented with high doses of soy. If a dietary recall indicates frequent millet consumption in patients with hypothyroidism, it may be wise to suggest they choose a different grain. Studies have found that people with undiagnosed celiac disease commonly have antithyroid antibodies and show reductions in thyroid antibody titers, indicating a lesser autoimmune 23,24 response, after six months of consuming a gluten-free diet. Moreover, when people with celiac disease and hypothyroidism go on a gluten-free diet and start experiencing increased absorption of both food and medications due to intestinal healing, often they need lower doses 25 of thyroid medication. This remains an area of controversy, although some experts report observing benefits in clients. If clients are interested and motivated to try a gluten-free diet, they should be tested for celiac disease first before going gluten free, even in the absence of gastrointestinal symptoms. Once someone with celiac disease adopts a gluten-free diet, the autoimmune markers for the disease disappear, so it is critical that the testing precedes dietary changes to insure accuracy. Calcium supplements have the potential to interfere with proper absorption of thyroid medications, so patients must consider the timing when taking both. Studies recommend spacing calcium supplements and thyroid medications 26 by at least four hours. Coffee and fiber supplements lower the absorption of thyroid 27 medication, so patients should take them one hour apart. Dietitians should confirm whether clients have received and are adhering to these guidelines for optimal health. Chromium picolinate, which is marketed for blood sugar control and weight loss, also impairs the absorption of thyroid medications. If clients decide to take chromium picolinate, they should 28 take it three to four hours apart from thyroid medications. Flavonoids in fruits, vegetables, and tea have been shown to have potential cardiovascular benefits. The Natural Standards Database provides an extensive list of supplements that have a potential impact on thyroid function, so taking precautions and coordinating patient care with a knowledgeable practitioner is prudent. With hyperthyroidism, anxiety and sleep disturbances are so common, and exercise can help regulate both. Since fatigue can be a barrier to exercise, starting off slowly and gently is paramount.

Developmental teratogenic effects (skeletal and visceral malformations) were also reported in Wistar rats given a single sc dose of 1. Other rodent studies show reduced embryo growth and other embryotoxicities with craniofacial abnormalities being some of the most commonly observed toxic effects (Malir et al. Groups of 15 rats/sex/dose were sacrificed at 9 and at 15 months, and the remaining survivors were sacrificed at 2 years. There was also clear evidence of carcinogenic activity for female rats, based on increased incidences of kidney tubular cell adenomas (0/50, 0/51, 1/50, 5/50) and tubular cell carcinomas (0/50, 0/51, 1/50, 3/50) and increased incidences and multiplicity of fibroadenomas of the mammary gland (17/50, 23/51, 22/50, 28/50). The first is a two-year dietary study in which male F344 rats (controls = 30, treated = 64 animals) were provided 0 or 0. Benign and malignant renal tumors were seen in male mice, but not female mice, at the high dose. Immunotoxicity was also observed in limited studies with rats given oral doses of 0.

Plasma concentration-time curves from this bolus administration indicated significant differences between female and male rat in both age groups tested. However, the presence of biliary excretion and enterohepatic circulation suggests that absorption was much higher than the amount excreted in urine. Radioactivity was widely distributed and concentrated mainly in liver, stomach, kidney, duodenum and lung and to a lesser extent in body fat, muscle tissue, testis, bone, and in rectum tissue. Ninety-six hours after the oral administration, the cumulative total elimination (urine and feces) exceeded 99 % in immature and mature males, and varied between 71. Hyaline degeneration was observed in the kidney and necrosis and hemorrhages were noted in the liver and in the kidneys at lethal doses. Although similar studies via the same route are not available for adults, there is no reason to expect higher mortality via sc dosing than ip dosing.
