Supplements for Hashimoto's
Vitamin D
Vitamin D deficiency is common in Hashimoto’s thyroid disease and treating this deficiency may slow down the development of hypothyroidism (3). Vitamin D supplementation may also reduce oxidative stress and increase antioxidant activity (4). Ask your doctor to check your vitamin D levels at your yearly visit. Most labs suggest that normal vitamin D levels are 30 ng/mL. However, a “normal level” does not necessarily mean optimal. For our patients, we strive for vitamin D levels around 50 ng/mL for best outcomes. You can find Vitamin D in our Root Shop.

Gut Healing Supplements
Your gut, thyroid gland, and immune system all affect each other in different ways. Whenever we treat an individual with an autoimmune condition, we always focus on correcting imbalances in the gut. Poor gut health is a major contributing factor to the development of Hashimoto’s. Plus, once the autoimmune disease is present, ongoing gut issues worsen symptoms of Hashimoto’s.
While gut health is very individualized, we have developed a Gut Health Bundle supplement that provides key nutrients needed to optimize gut health. Our Gut Health Bundle provides:
- Digestive enzymes for supporting proper digestion of carbohydrates, protein, and fat at each meal
- A research-backed probiotic with known benefits for reducing bad bacteria and supporting the growth of healthy bacteria
- Gut Health Rebalance powder to heal the intestinal lining and reduce inflammation with nutrients like L-glutamine, aloe vera extract, and deglycyrrhizinated licorice (DGL)
Used together, this bundle can support optimal gut health, which in turn, may make a significant health impact for people with Hashimoto’s.

Key Takeaways
Hashimoto’s is an autoimmune condition in which the body makes antibodies to attack your thyroid gland. Foundational lifestyle changes, like eating an anti-inflammatory diet, getting adequate sleep, and managing stress, are instrumental in treating this condition. However, we also see patient success when using certain supplements for Hashimoto’s like zinc/selenium, antioxidants, vitamin D, and probiotics. For the most effective bang for your buck, we’ve compiled these into our Thyroid Support Supplement and Gut Health Bundle.
