PROBLEMS WITH SUPPLEMENTS
Hi all, I'm having problems with my supplements - I bought TDN Nutrition D3+K2 vitamin complex (3000iu Vit D3 + 100 ug Vit K2-MK7). I took these for a few days but noticed my varicose vein running from my inner calf right up to my groin, which is usually innocuous unless I've done a lot of walking/standing

Magnesium
Sorry I'm asking lots of questions at the moment - I'm pretty new to the Hashis thing and the intricacies of it overwhelm me at times! My GP recently referred me to a neurologist re. numbness and tingling in my hands and feet. It's mostly noticeable at night, when I'm horizontal, and it keeps me awake

Does anyone know what ferritin levels are okay for treating hashis?
Hi everyone, Really trying to get a handle on my health this year, so am going to try to ask my gp for iron supplements. My ferritin level was 25 in November (it was 15 the previous year and 5 when it was first taken, the year before that). So it goes up by about 5 points a year. I currently take Solgar

Solgar gentle iron dosing
Hi, I have been taking 20mg solgar for the last few months one per day. I thought that I would have seen more than a slight improvement by now but just wondering if I need to up my dose. Any ideas? Thanks

Low Ferritin in 14 year old son
Hi Is it okay to give my 14 year old son Solgar Gentle Iron 25mg? He's on Spatone right now but I know that won't be doing much. He was at the very lowest point on the range for his ferritin. Doctor said it didn't matter! Thanks very much

Ferritin or liver supplements? Anyone tried them?
Hi I am struggling to get my ferritin levels up. I have been taking solgar gentle iron for over a year off and on due to stomach issues. I have finally had to give up on these due some very unpleasant gut issues that I won't go into. I can't stomach the taste of liver - tried that, continue do it

Iron supplement advice
Hi all, I have low ferritin which I have supplemented using a sachet of spatone a day and brought up from 13 to 26 with the range of 23-300. It is the only vitamin/mineral that's crucial for thyroid function that I'm low in and as I'm still having issues I'd like to try to raise it higher. However, I

Anyone increased ferritin from eating pate?
Have been trying to get my ferritin levels up for about a year using solgar gentle iron. Was ok at first but have had a few episodes of gastritis type symptoms and had to stop a few times most recently a couple of weeks ago. Thought I would try liver once a week instead but cover it up in a chilli and

Magnesium...
Like most of us I have sleep issues from time to time...and now is one of them! I have been taking Solgar Magnesium Citrate (400mcg) before bed and rub Mag oil on too, which is working quite well.
