Timings for taking supplements
hi everyone Ive just received all my new supplements and want to make sure I’ve got my head round what I need to take, when. So from looking at previous posts, am I right in thinking: First thing - Levothyroxine With breakfast - b vitamins (start with b12 and a week later add b complex?) and vitamin

B vits pyridoxal-5-phosphate (vitamin B6)
What B vitamins do people take and what brands have pyridoxal-5-phosphate (vitamin B6) in? What else do people take other than potassium rich diet and B vitamins and what form do you take folic acid in? I've heard it should be folate as folic acid isn't very good? Thanks

Hi I posted a while ago about the brand of thyroxine I’m on (Accord), just had my blood results. Recently moved doctors. After getting my results doctor has advised if you take thyroxine the NHS will only test TSH now. My old doctors used to do T4 and TSH. I could never get T3 done. On a positive

having bloods taken for Thyroid
I have my appointment at 8.40am for my bloods , is it best to take my thyroxine after my blood test. Or should I take it in the night. I have stopped my Biotin and Vitamin b complex for a couple of weeks. I only have this blood test annually so I want the best test results.

Tired all the time
Lately I feel tired all the time, from when I wake up to when I go to bed in the evening, despite the fact that I sleep more than 8 hours per night. I take a lot of supplements (calcium, D3, folate, complex B, magnesium glycinate, heme iron),
the only value that was low was ferritin
but I do take

New Thyroid Results - Conversion Issue?
Hi, After an emotional Thyroid rollercoaster these past couple years (post partial thyroidectomy 12/2/21 in combination with an Endo who doesn't believe in compounded medication), I finally seem to be settling into a medication and dose that works okay. I'd have to say that I'm still a bit tired and

Vitamins for fatigue?
Another photo of the Whitwell area. On my good days I love to walk alone, with a friend or a group of friends. We go all over the Island, up the downs, along the rivers around the coast. I feel extreme lucky to be able to do this, though It does obviously depend on my energy levels (seems to be getting

Unlocking the Maze of B Complexes: A Handy List for Safe Dosages and Bioactive Vitamins
It can be quite challenging to find reliable B-complex supplements that are safe in terms of dosage. Additionally, it is advisable to opt for bioactive vitamins for added safety.

Feeling cold despite overactive thyroid
I feel the cold all the time but GPs can't seem to find an issue. I'm currently in a heated home with three jumpers and two pairs of socks on, plus a blanket! GP did full blood tests, showing an overactive thyroid but all other tests within range (detailed below). I take 100mcg Levothyroxine a day and

B12 and menopause?
Hiya! I’ve been advised to take vitamin b complex for menopause symptoms but is there any point if I have pernicious anaemia? Might be a silly question but if my body can’t absorb it (I have injections every 3 months) isn’t my body just getting rid of it every day? Some advice would be good!
