Elderberry is rich in antioxidants and may support immune health, but there is limited research specifically addressing its effects on Hashimoto's thyroiditis. Some believe its anti-inflammatory properties could be beneficial, but it's essential to consult with a healthcare professional before adding it to your regimen. Individual responses may vary, and managing Hashimoto's typically requires a comprehensive approach involving diet, medication, and lifestyle changes.
There is ongoing research exploring potential links between radon exposure and autoimmune diseases like Hashimoto's disease.
