Best blood values
Already learned a lot in this forum and from other sources about optimal blood values for Vit D and B12. Just wonder if similar recommendations exist for zinc, selenium, iodine, iron and omega 3 and 6? I’m on WFPBD, take some supplements and check my blood values every three months, some more expensive

Help please.
last night my right leg started jerking around 8pm. Had a bath with Epsom salts. Took medication around 9.30, legs still jerking in bed under weighted blanket. No sleep. Got up to read and do stretches. Waited until 1.30 to take extra codeine. Right leg continued to jerk. Had another bath with Epsom

New interloper from a neighbouring forum - advice please
I’ve put a very potted history in my bio. My question is- of the recent blood results, which would be the most useful to post seeking guidance from you knowledgable folk? I seem to have had everything and chips done by GP- not complaining.- and started a course of B12 injections. But from the results

Supplements and levothyroxine
Hi, After recent bloods my T4 was increased from 112.5mcg to 150mcg T4. I've not included results as I've done that before and it's not what I'd like help on. My next blood tests are on 25th July (8 weeks after increase). It has been recommended on this site that I also supplement Vit D3 as it was

Good afternoon, l wonder whether anyone would be kind enough please to see if they can help me? I have been feeling very tired and drained for several months and I am not sure if it might also have been aggravated by Covid, which I had in March this year. I have had a series of private blood tests,
