Probiotics have helped

[Cymraes]

I was diagnosed as hypothyroid 15 years ago. I've had the same issues as everyone else with levithyroxine and am now self medicating on ndt. I just wanted to tell people that I've recently started to take a probiotic capsule daily and it has helped. I now have more energy. I don't know whether probiotics will help anyone else , but I know so many of us are struggling and I thought I'd share my experience in the hope it might help others

Glad to hear the probiotics are helping you. It sounds as though you have or had a malabsorption problem. Leaky gut syndrome. Take care

I've never heard of leaky gut syndrome - will investigate. Thanks for that

The other name is dysbiosis.

That's great to hear, which probiotic are you taking?

Thank you.

I'm unsure whether we're allowed to name brands? admin? Will pm you

[lucylocks in reply to Cymraes]

Yes I just thought the same after I asked the question.

Thank you.

Can you PM me too please? I have read that you shouldn't take the same one for too long so I'm on the hunt for a new one
