I have the symtoms eg: my T4 isn't converting effectively to T3 etc.... It's a natural herb that can help the body.

I meant how do you know that you have Leptin resistance? There are maybe 10 reasons why you aren't converting, i don't either. There are as many "remedies" for converting too.

Ok! Not sure really.... Trying to improve gut and body inflammation in order to help things along. Along with optimum levels of vitamin b12 iron and folate.

I was not trying to sound mean, only curios. My understanding is that you would feel hungry often, when you shouldn't . Leptin signals the body to feel full after eating. If you have Hashimotos, you are inflammed. My thyroid meds don't work to eleviate symptoms, unfortunately. Even t3 isn't working.
