Asking the question as taking supplements along with levo is a minefield with what you should and shouldn’t take! My friend has recommended these collagen supplements, I currently take selenium and Vit b complex, I do these in the morning and take my levo before bed well away from everything else. Does anyone know if it’s safe to take these whilst on levo??

I wouldn't take anything with kelp or iodine in myself - these have the potential to be very wrong indeed if you're hypo x

As well as 10mg kelp, it lists 150mcg of iodine separately which is the recommended daily amount of iodine for adults which here in the UK we can easily get from food. Definitely not a good idea.
I take a bovine collagen supplement. Get it on Amazon in powder form. It’s clear and tasteless when mixed with water. Safe with hypo.
