Food sensitivities
Hi everyone, just looking for a bit advice re food issues. I have had long term issues with constipation, which resolved when I went dairy free. I also find I feel much better on a gluten free diet so have been GF and DF for about 1 year. These are both very tricky to manage when eating out and I know

Ozempic
I am type 2 diabetic and went on ozempic as as a weight loss tool and to bring my sugar down. It is working but the side effects don't seem worth it. When my dosage of ozempic goes up The side effects come back. Does anyone have the same issues?

High Cholesterol
Any advice please on my lipid results taken from a finger prick sample when attending an appointment at Our Future Health research programme. They were elevated . Total cholesterol 7.6 mmol/L HDL 1.22 mmol/AL Triglycerides 4.72 mmol/L They did not record LDL unfortunately. It was non-fasting.

Low carb for epilepsy
I've been having a chat with my epilepsy nurse about trying a low carb diet. She is happy for me to give it a go and says some people find it reduces the amount of seizures they have. Has anyone else tried it?

Decipher this cholesterol reading please
I know there are plenty of knowledgeable people reading these posts so can you decipher this please Chol 3.5 mmol/L, LDL , HDL 1.78 mmol/L,Chol:HDL ratio , Tri 0.51 mmol/L. I don’t understand this. I’m guessing my cholesterol reading is 3.5, but what are HDL and LDL readings individually?

*I have now received my FT3 results TSH 0.02 mIU/L (0.35 - 5.50) -6.4% Free T4 (fT4) 14.4 pmol/L (7.86 - 14.41) 99.8% Free T3 (fT3) 5.70 pmol/L (3.5 - 6.5) 73.3% T4:T3 Ratio 2.526 So looks like the correct dose, but I do need to work on my vitamin levels - thanks guys. The endocrinologist has offered

HEAL YOUR GUT! (..... many docs say that is WHERE PD comes from)
Many medical researchers and doctors have concluded that PD and other neuro diseases
START IN OUR GUT.
I believe that and that is why for
552 days I have been on the O.M.A.D.
(one meal a day with all calories eaten within a 2 hour window). I've lost about 50 pounds and I feel much better

gallbladder removal
Hello, I had my gallbladder removed a week ago today (keyhole). Recovery from surgery has been an absolute breeze, other than I slept for 4 days solid; despite telling pre op nurse, anaesthetist, recovery and ward nurse that I have PA and B12 deficiency and reacted very badly to an anaesthetic 10 years

Research on effect of red light
Not directly thyroid related but it sheds some light on how we might improve our metabolism at the cellular level, which our thyroids should be partaking in. The text is from my Facebook post, so the tone is for a different audience! https://youtu.be/6Win49aeh8A?si=c7sxkdvvzmceR2lN I highly recommend

Going gluten free - how long until antibodies reduce?
Hello, I was been taking 100 levothryoxine for Hashimoto’s for approx 10 years and I test my antibodies with medicheck every year or so (levels are roughly 590, normal range is 0-34) Due to infertility, I was advised by a nutritionist try a gluten free diet to reduce inflammation, and hopefully reduce
