RE: Healing My Thyroid Part 3: Food to Avoid
@Peggy, it's great to see another post here on natural health. Thank you for writing it.
I want to comment on CANOLA, which is on the list of food ingredients to avoid. It not only has an impact on thyroid, it also is a contributor to dementia risk, as this article explains: Canola oil in the diet accelerates brain damage and increases the risk of dementia.
Originally called rapeseed until they changed the name for marketing purposes to a contracted version of "Canadian oil", canola is also implicated in weight gain as that article also mentions.
It's best avoided.

Well, I had no idea. Thanks for that information, @garyharvey! I have some in my cupboard right now and need to take out a loan and buy some olive oil. Okay, I know it's not that bad but it's so much pricier than other oils! Thanks for adding to the discussion. I appreciate the info.
