>I have a friend with Hashimoto's Thyroiditis. In recent years several studies have found a potential connection between Hashimoto's and celiac disease (it is still being actively studied, and the link is not conclusive), and so some doctors are beginning to suggest that people with Hashimoto's remove gluten from their diet.

Do you have any more info on this? I have a friend with Hashimoto's and I'd be curious to find out if this is an approach widespread enough that she might have heard about it/to point her that way if not.

I know that Dr. Tom O'Bryan[0] has mentioned it, and the talk with Suzy Cohen in the recent Gluten Summit[1] he helped host discussed it. There may have been more mentions in the summit, but it's been a little while since I last listened to it.
