The key word on myth #5 is ALL. A relatively small percentage of patients with Hashimoto's hypothyroidism have Celiac disease or gluten intolerance and should avoid gluten. However, most patients with Hashimoto's hypothyroidism have no problems with gluten and there is no reason they should avoid gluten. I did a careful Pubmed review of articles published on Hashimoto's hypothyroidism and gluten and there is no published studies on the issue.
