Latest test results
Hi! I’m after your support please. Attached are my latest test results which I’d like your comments on. Not the full suggested list (consultant directed) but hoping you can interpret for me. I have Hypothyroidism, I believe Hashimoto’s. My Teva Levothyroxine medication was increased from 100mg to 125mg

I'm new here....
I've submitted two posts before this, but these seem to have caused some confusion, I had no intention of misleading anyone or wasting any ones time, my first was about how shocked I was over how little GP's know about hypothyroidism/ Hashi's and to thank people on here for the valuable info I had learnt

HER MAJESTY'S DIET
Queen Elizabeth II is going to be 93 next month. Would you like to know one of the secrets of her excellent health and longevity? That is her diet! Her diet can be described broadly as LCHF. It is not by design but by default. In the main meals (Lunch and Dinner) , strictly NO STARCH - no pasta, rice

I got my energy back and got rid of all the symptoms...
I got rid of my symptoms when I got enough potassium. It took me some time to find out (browsing research results on pubmed) that one of the reasons hyperthyroidism can be dangerous is that high levels of thyroid hormone depletes the body of potassium. Together with the fact that many of the side effects

Finger on the pulse
Hello, I’m new to the concept of a LCHF diet. My husband is not a great lover of meat so we tend to eat a lot of fish and veggies. How do pulses fit into the program? We have been eating kidney beans, chickpeas, lentils and haricot beans etc but I’m wondering whether we should? I would appreciate any

Recently Diagnosed with Liver Cirrhosis
Hi All, Unfortunately my father is diagnosed with Liver Cirrhosis 3 weeks back. He is diabetic since last 17 years. He never really had alcohol. Recently during our small family vacation, his legs had swelling - which often appeared during travelling due to legs hanging but disappeared after a night

LCHF saves the planet
Following on from the posts by Mike and S11m, here's my take on the ecological value of LCHF. While my title might be hyperbole, a low-carb, high-fat diet could dramatically improve end-to-end farming efficiency and make the world a slightly nicer place. Unless the politicians get their teeth into it

Is low carb diet a risk for AF?
I’d really appreciate hearing advice from you as I know you have a vast amount of knowledge. A friend has sent me the link below regarding low carb diets causing AF. I’ve changed my diet to low carb: moderate amounts of fat, beans, nuts, seeds, chicken, fish, colourful vegetables, some fruits, and kefir

News from the NIH, 40 years late but what are you going to do? They confirm our diet advice but I wish they were more emphatic about it.
https://newsinhealth.nih.gov/2019/03/skinny-fat https://www.fattyliverfoundation.org/compare_diets Fat is an essential nutrient for our bodies. It provides energy. It helps our guts absorb certain vitamins from foods. But what types of fat should you be eating? Are there any you should avoid? Recommendations

Child Nutrition
On the back of a previous post regarding children and LCHF, a thought struck me this morning. And using Occam's razor, whilst trying to achieve a balanced diet perhaps I'd consider it somewhere between Paleo/vegan and throw in some dairy.

Acidity and Levothyroxine
Is it normal to get a feeling of acidity when you take your daily Levothyroxine? I’m on the Teva brand, 125mg, I also follow a gluten free diet.

The weight Issue
Once again trying to lose weight, told my GP I needed help he tried to get me on a trial for a gastric band, but was refused and told to go on a diet. So my GP gave me Orislat but as I have a low fat diet they did not work. So booked another appointment with him, in the meantime I have spent money on
