Thyroid Grief

María Carolina Alderete has a bachelor’s degree in social communication from the University of Buenos Aires and is a master’s degree student in arts in religion at Drew University Theological School in New Jersey. “Today, I’m recovering from Hashimoto’s hypothyroidism, diagnosed in 2014, an autoimmune disease that was treated with diet, dietary supplementation and exercise, as well as with therapy and a ten-year path of personal discovery through yoga, art, dance and, above all, through creative and academic writing.”
