Hashimoto's thyroiditis is the most common autoimmune condition -- driven by molecular mimicry, intestinal permeability, selenium deficiency, and iodine excess paradox. Understand the nuanced iodine relationship in Hashimoto's (adequate iodine essential for thyroid function yet excess iodine can exacerbate autoimmune flares), how selenium as selenocysteine in glutathione peroxidase protects the thyroid from hydrogen peroxide oxidative stress, how fucoidan's immune-modulating properties may support Treg/Th17 balance in autoimmune thyroid disease, and how gut-thyroid axis restoration via prebiotic fiber may reduce molecular mimicry triggers. Critical: iodine intake in Hashimoto's requires endocrinologist guidance -- start very low, monitor TPO antibodies.
