I don't have Hashimoto's but I do have an autoimmune disorder.

He is doing really really really well since he eliminated grain carbohydrates from his diet several years ago. Lean, healthy, full of energy, feels great!

It is basically a version of the paleo diet.

Let me dig around there is an author he told me about as well as a documentary.
