I am Hypo due to Hashimoto's Disease - my doctor (and others, in my research) recommended a low carb diet even though I don't have much weight to lose. Apparently, like someone else said, we don't process carbs as well as we should so low carb is best.

However, going very low carb (under 50 grams) is reportedly not good. But 50 grams is still quite low compared to the average carb intake.

I believe it was Broda Barnes who first reported this info.
