New member with lots of questions about levo and NDT
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

Growing Challenge - Pea Shoots
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

Vitamin A and liver enzymes
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

what do you do when you feel a cold coming on?
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

This might be of interest for anyone who struggles to raise their iron levels or is frequently anaemic or nearly anaemic
I should point out that this paper is old. It was first published in 2000. The second thing I want to point out is that it has 176 references, which to my mind is quite bizarre, but some of them could be of interest. And thirdly, the link is to the abstract only but there is an option to "Save PDF

Hashimotos fatigue
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. I started taking levothyroxine straight away about 2 weeks ago but I’m still waiting for my order of T3 to come through, since

Test Results after discussion on here
Hi folks, hot of the press so to speak and on the attached screenshot. The doctor's comments are below this message. They are not what I was expecting, especially as I inject B12 1mg only once a month, but data analysis works more than one way and unless I'm reading it wrongly, I can cancel out any sort

Co-supplementation of Vitamin D3, Vitamin K2 MK7 and Calcium
Unless you are actively increasing your Vitamin K2 MK7 levels through diet or supplementation, you are likely deficient and have inadequate levels for your bone and heart health needs. Vitamin K2 MK7 dosage recommendation is 150 to 180 mcg per day. Consult with your physician and a Registered Dietitian

Lycopene + Sulforaphane - Forms, Dosage, Upsides, Downsides?
I've got Gleason 3+4 PCa, PMSA PET, 3T MRI, CT Bone Scan show nothing outside capsule, but 31 PSA (Age 53). Have Robotic Prostatectomy scheduled in a couple months. Done tons of research and the area I'm most "unsure" of is CAMs (Complimentary Alternative Medicines). From what I've gathered, Lycopene

Gluten, Glutamate, GAD1 SNPs & GAD Enzymes – Harmful Effects
“ 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

Vitamin Test Results advice for GP call
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). Any previous increase and I experience symptoms which I believe to be over-medication
