I’d be very grateful for an opinion on my vitamin A test results from Medichecks. (My GP told me ‘We don’t test vitamin A’, (!!!?), so I got private testing, though it’s not one of the cheaper tests. ) I know conversion of beta-carotene to retinol can be an issue in hypothyroidism, and although I have

Hi everyone, I just joined. My name is Anna and I am from Denmark. I was diagnosed with Hashimoto´s disease in December 2002, based on a high TSH, low FT4, and high anti-TPO and anti-TG levels. I was told it was very easy to manage, and that all I needed to do was to take levothyroxine until my TSH

Who wants to join me to see how each of us get on? This autumn is going to be a first for me. Not sure how it will turn out but I will be growing Pea Shoots and picking them fresh for my salad. No more bagged pea shoots from the supermarket and in the long term will be cheaper and much fresher

I’ve been eating about 4 oz (115 grams?) of veal liver each day for the past week. I know it has nutrients that are healthy for the liver, but it’s also very high in vitamin A (I think I had about 25,000-30,000 IUs per day on those days). I’ve read that such doses can be damaging to the liver (and

any magic potions, supplements, herbs? I just started sneezing, my husband just had it, I’d really like to keep it from getting worse. Now that I’m finally getting better sleep. Sneezing kept waking me last night. I’ve heard megadose vitamin A 50-100,000 iu for 3-5 days, same with vitamin D, 3-5

I was given Novothyral 2 years ago by a FM doc but recent tests showed antibodies so saw an endocrinologist. She diagnosed hashimotos but said the Novothyral dose isn’t right.

“ My cells were filled with DHA, I had adequate vitamin A, D3 and a bunch of supplements to restore oral tolerance. Anyway, I had some gluten over the weekend and then again earlier in the week – like 1/5th of a piece of bread and some other lectins… and it messed me up, big time” https://selfhack.com

Hello all, I will try to be brief... Not many posts for a while, as I was working with Endo and it takes time between med changes and results etc. Current meds: 100mcg levothyroxine Mon-Sat + 75 mcg on a Sun (since August 2021).
