There are a lot of reports showing
that Flax Seed oil (and I personally experienced that on my own) that
this supplement can help your Thyroid Eye Disease
tremendously and you can
see results in 1 or 2 weeks, especially if you have mild TED symptoms.
Flaxseed 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. Flaxseed and flaxseed 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/ Organic Flax Seeds
are good for:
Circulatory System, Immune System, Reproductive System, Nervous System.
You can find Flax seed oil in
any GNC or Natural Store. You can also add flax seeds to your salad and
just sprinkle them.
Also different eye exercises can be
used to help Thyroid Eye Disease symptoms- most of them are very easy to
implement and does not require any special settings or abilities.
Some researches show that after
Radioactive Iodine Treatment (RAI), in 90% of the cases your eyes can
get worse, especially if the patients weren’t given any steroid tablets
-prednisolone before and after their radioiodine treatment. Have in mind
that eye problems can occur before, during, and after problems with the
thyroid gland have been diagnosed and treated.

...She avoided an eye
surgery and saw improvement in just 2 1/2 weeks!
Hi Svetla,
I just wanted to let you
know that I have been taking the flax seed oil and using my eye
drops for about 2 1/2 weeks now and I can already tell a difference
(not necessarily appearance wise yet), but I do not have
all of the pain in my eyes that I was having and I can tell by touch
that my eyes are not protruding as much.
I am going to the eye
doctor next week. I am anxious to see how much my
measurements have improved, because I know they have. I just
wanted to say thanks for your information, because I was not looking
forward to that horrible sounding eye surgery.
Thanks,
Stacy P.
I believe that once your symptoms are
under control and your test are in normal range your eyes will start to
improve. So besides treating the symptoms I would recommend treating thecause of Graves’ Disease
as well.
