Hmm. Anecdotally, I know several people whose thyroid issues ceased to
be a concern after going zc. I also know ppl who experienced the same
going LC, or just giving up grains. I also know ppl who experienced no

Some people find their energy and performance (in athletics) improves,
some don't. Again...who knows. You find what works best for you, and you
