A member asked:

How to treat hypertthyroidism grave disease naturally without need to go through iodine radiation therapy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No good option: I'm all for natural treatments when good ones are available but, in something as delicate as treating grave's disease, i would recommend the mainstream treaments. Have your doc explain all your options and then make an informed decision.
