Energy drinks and thyroid meds

[Mauds]

Would energy drinks like lucozade interfere with T3 T4 meds just wondering would they make trembling sensations worse

Maybe drinking plain water with some fresh lemon or orange juice although that's not so exciting but healthy.

Thanks was drinking it for more energy but think it was a bad idea especially with T3

Hi I am a tad addicted to lucozade as caffeine one are not a good idea and they weren't giving me any energy I am sorry to say have no problem with them. It could be our bodies break it down differently but have you been tested for diabetes as my husband was just diagnosed as glucose intolerant a step down from diabetes but it shows in a fasting glucose blood test and I was just thinking maybe it's that you have the issue with? But then my medical knowledge is pants so i could be talking pants sorry. But I don't know if others have issues with the glucose based energy drinks but I not long since started t3 and I have lucozade a bit more than should really and don't have an issue but then I've read I should with Hashimoto's cut sugar out so I could be mad drinking it!?!?
