Thyroid Eye Disease Cures- Supplements that can help your Thyroid Eye Disease

When I was diagnosed with Graves’ disease, my left eye was already protruded; it was swelling and painful. My biggest concern was not only how I could get rid of the pain, but would my eyes be the same after the disease had been treated. Some Graves’ disease patients like me suffer from Graves’ Ophthalmopathy, sometimes called Thyroid Eye Disease or TED.

One of things I used to improve my condition was Flax Seed Oil, and I know that it is one of the most effective “thyroid eye disease cures”. I am still taking that because it is so good for many other things. So let me tell you more about that.

Recently, I’ve been doing a lot of research and reading up on flax seed oil and its many health benefits. All the health benefits of flax seed oil had me convinced pretty quick, and I had bought myself a 6 months supply of flax seed supplement in no time, and I’ve been taking them every morning since then.

Flax Seed oil is the most abundant plant source of omega-3 fatty acid, alpha-linolenic acid omega-3. The seeds and oil of the flax plant contain substances which are known to promote good health.

Flax Seed and Flax Seed oil are rich in alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), an essential fatty acid that appears to be beneficial for a lot of diseases. ALA belongs to a group of substances called omega-3 fatty acids.

Flax seed oil is good for: Circulatory System, Immune System, Reproductive System, Nervous System.

There are a lot of reports that it can help your Thyroid Eye Disease and practically you can see results in 1 or 2 weeks. The recommended dose is 2 capsules of 1000 mg per day (at least). You can find Flax seed oil  in any GNC or Natural Store in the form of capsules, or you can also add flax seeds to your salad and just sprinkle them.

Research has shown that majority of diets are deficient in Omega 3  essential fatty acids, and this can lead to some serious health problems. This is what else you can help by taking Flax Seed Oil:

1. Coronary heart disease – Omega 3 helps reduce cholesterol, blood pressure, plaque formation, and cardiac arrhythmia.

2. Arthritis – Studies have found that oils rich in Omega 3 (like flax seed oil) patients can reduce their drug use.

3. Cancer – Omega 3 has been found to kill certain cancer cells without harming normal cells.

4. Skin problems like acne, eczema, and psoriasis are shown partly to be related to Omega 3 deficiency.

5. Omega 3 EFA helps improve your response to stress.

You can buy also Flax Seeds and use them for salads, dressings and however you prefer.

Properly prepared and protected, milled flax can be eaten raw, blended into drinks, sprinkled on ice cream or cooked and baked into items without losing much of it’s nutritional value.
