Hello all,
I have Hashimoto's (and have also very recently been diagnosed with Barrett's oesophagus) and am taking a range of medications and supplements. I was just wondering whether I am following the right sort of timing schedule in order to prevent malabsorption issues and to get the most beneficial effects from the things I'm taking Here's what I'm currently doing:
MORNING
Vitamin C, Vitamin D, Vitamin K2 MK-7 Vitamin B Complex. fish oil (omega 3) capsules (all with my fattiest meal of the day - I tend to have eggs and a whole avocado for breakfast)
Prior to evening meal: Omeprazole (PPI)
EVENING: combined magnesium + calcium supplement
NIGHTTIME (usually 3 to 4am, when I get up to go the loo)
Levothyroxine
I'm trying to follow the various "rules" that have been suggested by members on this board, namely:
To take PPI, Vit D and calcium 4 hours away from levo
To take levo on an empty stomach, and at least 2 hours away from other meds and supplements
I would really appreciate any views and/or further suggestions.
Many thanks!
Steve
