Treating Parkinson’s by targeting the gut-brain axis with B vitamins
A study by Nagoya University in Japan found a link between gut bacteria and Parkinson’s disease (PD). Researchers discovered fewer gut bacteria genes that make B vitamins B2 and B7 in PD patients. They also found that low levels of these vitamins are linked to poor intestinal barrier function, allowing

, D3, K2, Taurine, Magnesium and CoQ10 (I added CoQ10 late last year). Over the last few months all the joints in my body had been getting sore to the point where they really hurt, especially when I had to stand up from sitting.

An Enlightening Endocrine Adventure
After appeasing an endocrinologist worried about my suppressed TSH by a cunning lab trick -- withholding NDT for three days before going for the blood work -- I realized I needed to titrate up the dose. Many thanks to those who replied with their NDT experience. I cranked it up to nearly double what

Also, the discrepancy between the 2
B
vitamin
levels seems large. Is that likely to be significant? [i][/i]

any tips/advice
I have recently started taking some supplements like lions mane,
vitamin
d, a
B
complex, ashwagandha and N-acetyl cysteine. I’m gluten and dairy free and a vegetarian. I think Im relatively fit but probably could do with losing a round 6/7 lbs.

Mum's journey with adrenal insuffiency and hypothyroidism
Previously, she had anaemia and low neutrophils as well but we treated that with supplements like B12,
B
Vitamins, Iron with
Vitamin
C and so on. She also exercises regularly and will soon be starting again. The thyroid test we had indicated her TSH was high at 5.9.

Help in interpreting results
I have followed the blood test advice on here ( bloods taken at 9:30am (earliest time I could get) no
vitamin
B
for week prior, etc) . I am booking a private consultation with one of the consultants on the Thyroid UK specialist list but would like your advice before seeing him.

advice, thoughts please, feeling rather desperate?!
hi I only got one response to my recent post which was so kind but no feedback so am trying again as I’m a bit stumped. I’d hoped going on NDT would relieve fibro symptoms and generally help me feel better, and give me more energy, but despite latest test results I don’t feel that much different. Certainly

B vitamin complex
hi, I just need to know if it’s ok for me to take my
B
vitamin
complex an hour after T4/T3 with my breakfast. The reason I ask is on the box it states folate - as calcium folinate. I’m now worried if I should leave 4 hours after levo because it mentions calcium?
