Sorry for confusion.

4 Replies

If anyone checked my profile noticed my education as a medical doctor. Yes it's my education plus nutrition and health coaching. I practice as a coach helping and supporting people who have weight, low energy, thyroid and bone health. Which is actually all interrelated. Also I have a thyroid problem.

Many here on an erstwhile medical training course as well , VW!

I'm sure your input will be well received- but any business plan will be thoroughly dispatched :)

Did you complete youir medical degree and just not register?

I completed my medical degree in Lithuania many years ago and relocated to live in New York. There was a long medical and personal journey which lead me to reconsider medicine and to follow my passion and life hobby in nutrition and healthy living. I am living now in London and practicing what I believe in "Food is your medicine". It is working for me so far.

Just think- but for that change you could be shelling out T4 like the rest! ;)

Joking apart- I think nutrition should come first and allopathic drugs a necessary adjunct.

At present it's pretty well the other way round- if you're even lucky enough to hear about alternatives from conventional medics.

Hormones, being Endo driven [patently a law unto themselves] territory are tricky to handle- by both the giver[sometimes] and taker [often]. I think the 'magic veil' needs to be lifted, & soon.

Most posters on here are very up on the importance of vitamins and minerals.

vwellness, Do you have autoimmune thyroid disease, or is your 'thyroid problem' caused by something else (such as iodine deficiency for example)?
