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

Continued high cortisol and testosterone!
I have read your posts and after a year of high liver alk phos was finally switched to Nature Thyroid as I think the Synthroid was storing up in my liver. But my cortisol and testosterone continue to be high on my saliva tests. I just added progesterone and estradiol recently and feel better but the

How's your sleep? Could magnesium help you?
HI Everyone. Sleep is one of THE key aspects to our wellbeing. If our sleep is out this can knock out hormones, make us crave more sugar, result in lack lustre complexion and generally just make us feel dull. In order to thrive, we need to be well rested so we can digest the emotions of the day as well

Struggling to solve hypothyroid puzzle, please help
I have had hypothyroid symptoms for as long as I can remember but they have become much worse after an adverse drug reaction 2 years ago. I have tested all the hormones and the only abnormality was free t3/reverse t3 ratio, and somewhat high cortisol. I have subsequently taken t3 only at good doses

Taking a week's dose of Vitamins in one go?
A while ago when I went to see a Naturopath I told her all the vits I was taken (B12, B-complex, D3, K2MK4, Mag, Selenium, Zinc, Ferrous Fumerate + Vit C) and the difficulties in timing. She suggested taking some of these vitamins all in one go i.e. a week's supply of D3. Could you do this? If you did

Where now? Advice on next steps
Hi, I'm now a few months into my "what's wrong with me" journey. In March my doctor thought I had thyroid issues based on my symptoms. My bloods came back and she diagnosed me with iron deficiency anaemia and folic acid deficiency. She said my thyroid was fine despite my free T3 being borderline (she

Best method of 'detoxing'?
I use Epsom salts in hot baths and drink lots of water, I also have an Everlast 'slimming' belt that helps me sweat. Anyone have a method that doesn't break the bank but gets the best results of helping our bodies shed the bad stuff in our systems?

Sublinical Hypothyroidism?
I have just read the following:- https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3746228/ Several reports suggest that zinc deficiency is a cause of subclinical hypothyroidism. We often read of complaints of hair loss with hypo.

Selenium ACE, Selenium With Zinc, etc?
Hi everyone. As selenium is often sold in combination with other nutrients, which would you recommend: selenium on its own; selenium with vitamins A, C and E; selenium with zinc; or selenium with ACE and zinc? Ideally I would regularly test for these nutrients but the cost is somewhat prohibitive! Cheers

Reducing my dosage
My doctor prescribed porcine whole thyroid, T4 andT3, a 162.5 (mg written on the bottle) tablet daily. I am experimenting by taking a tablet one day then a half tablet the following two days. The tablets cost NZ$128 per 100. Very expensive, but I will have to live with the expense if my experiment

Is increasing Levo dose a good idea?
Hi, I have been taking 50mcg of levothyroxine for about 8 weeks. I went back to my GP after a thryoid function blood test 2 weeks ago. I didn't ask for specific numbers but she told me my results were now normal. But I haven't been feeling any better - still exhausted all the time, unexplained pain

This is what a small bottle of soda does to your body
AFTER 10 MNUTES------ 10 teaspoonfuls of sugar will enter your body. This is 100% of your daily need. You won't vomit due to massive amounts of sugar because phosphoric acid holds back the taste. AFTER 20 MINUTES----- your blood sugar spikes and insulin is released. Your liver quickly responds and transforms
