Some great studies suggesting a link between low Vitamin D and an increased risk of Hasimotos


Relative Vitamin D Insufficiency in Hashimoto's Thyroiditis (2011)

"Conclusions: We showed that serum 25OHD levels of patients with HT were significantly lower than controls and severity of vitamin-D deficiency correlated with duration of HT, thyroid volume and antibody levels. These findings may suggest a potential role of 25OHD in development of Hashimoto's thyroiditis and/or its progression to hypothyroidism. "

Hashimoto's autoimmune thyroiditis and vitamin D deficiency. Current aspects. (Feb 2014)

Risk of Hashimoto's Thyroiditis reduced 19 percent for each 5 ng increase in vitamin D – March 2014

"Conclusions
Our study suggested that higher serum 25OHD levels was associated with decreased risk of HT so that each 5 ng/ml increase in the serum 25OHD levels results in 19 % decrease in odds of HT. "
