"Antioxidants include vitamin C, vitamin E, beta carotene (vitamin A precursor), and the minerals selenium and manganese. ... For example, vitamin C becomes an antioxidant at doses above 600 mg, while the RDA is only 60 mg, one tenth of that. While 60 mg will prevent scurvy, it will not prevent free radical damage. Vitamin E is an antioxidant at a dose of 200 mg-400 mg (RDA is 10 mg), and selenium should be taken at a dose of 200 mcg-400 mcg for those with Hashimoto's (RDA is 70 mcg). Vitamins C and E can be found in many food sources, but supplementation may also be helpful. Vitamin A, however, when taken as a supplement, can be toxic in
excessive amounts, and should only be taken from food sources.
... selenium deficiency has also been recognized as a risk factor for Hashimoto's.
The co-occurrence of Hashimoto's and celiac has been clearly established." [See: GLUTEN below]
