iodine to take it or not?
could someone clear up the iodine issue with me? I was under the impression that it was bad to take iodine. Due to trying for a baby I have resorted to a private nhs gp who specialises in hormone health. She put me on a methylated pregnancy multivit containing iodine as well as referring me to a functional

Stevodat
Hi Guys, New to this forum but have 7 years tackling & experimenting with nutrition for Hashimotos. With a keen background in nutrition I was determined to address it with this and avoid any thyroid drug interaction if possible. My antibodies were as high as 3500 at worst and are now 528 and dropping

Here’s a herbal for the lungs
I have just come across this herbal formula which has many reviews on the benefits for chest congestion coughs, breathing problems. It has an extensive list of herbs in it. Some have been shown to be anti anxiety, anti oxidant, anti inflammatory inducing. Might be worth a shot if you have issues

Raised Thyroglobulin ab
Hi. I had a total thyroidectomy and radio iodine treatment in 2016 for Papillary Ca. I've been having annual monitoring since with no concerns. My most recent blood test shows normal thyroglobulin but raised thyroglobulin antibodies at 40. My latest is TSH 0.7 and T4 in normal range. What I want to know

should I do radioiodine therapy for hyperthyroid?
Hi Everyone, I’m debating whether to get radio-iodine therapy to treat my hyperthyroid. I have been diagnosed with hyperthyroid for 7 years now. I was very bad at taking any medicines and didn’t take anything for years. I don’t have any of the symptoms that is normally associated with hyperthyroid.

Iodine in pregnancy supplement
Hi All I am trying for a baby and I have been told to take folic acid amongst a few other vitamins. I have found a pregnancy vitamin supplement however it has 150mcg of Iodine in it. I understand Iodine is not good for those with hypothyroidism and we do not need it BUT my future baby will rely on

EBRT - sunbathing, water intake, iodine, kids
Hello, I'm 70 years old and I've just started EBRT to prostate and seminal vesicles and have some questions: 1.) Is it safe to be sunbathing to parts that are not being irradiated? 2.) I know that I should drink a lot of water. Approximately how much water should I drink daily? I'm 5.7 ft (1.74 m)

T3-only/ iodine levels
Can someone please explain the impact that taking T3-only medication might have on iodine levels given that deiodination is no longer involved in T4 to T3 conversion? Thank you!

Starting donor egg treatment
So after a long and difficult journey we are now starting with donor eggs with a Spanish clinic. From my blood results (TSH) I have been advised to take an over the counter iodine supplement - does anyone have any recommendations of which brand and what strength? I have asked them if a brand I found

Daily multivitamins do not help people live longer, major study finds
The taking of general multivitamins has long been questioned here on this forum. The article specifically identifies iron: [i]Meanwhile iron, which is added to many multivitamins, can lead to iron overload and raise the risk of cardiovascular disease, diabetes and dementia.[/i] I think we'd also advocate

anemia but digestive issues (diarrhea)/multivitamins
Good evening everyone, I´m writing on behalf of my sister who is lactating now on her second year and has been suffering from diarrhea for the last two months.

hi, does anyone know anything about sea moss supplements. I’ve heard really good things, but it has iodine in, so I’m not sure if I can try it with hashimotos.
