I want to sincerely thank the amazing moderators who generously give their time to this forum,
In particular, whoever posted the link to the 'endocrine reports from the front line' on Springer.com, (in December last year). Please message me so I can thank you personally for the journey you began!.
In January, I was taking 2.5 grains of Armour in the mornings, with extra Uni-Pharma T3 in the evening and I was feeling that the pain of life was becoming too much for me to bear.
It's been years since I have prayed in earnest but I had some serious conversations with God. How could I be effective in any way if constantly an invalid myself. I wasn't in good place physically or mentally and my further existence seemed without any purpose.
At that time I wrote something in defence of a homeopathist, who was being debunked on a public forum. Our Queen has a homeopathic doctor, I was also certain that my local pharmacy would not be giving a large amount of their limited shelving space to a large 'Nelson's' display if it were not effective.
This lovely homeopathist and I began to chat by private messaging .
On the day that I was dismayed to learn how pigs have been Genetically Modified, (Do you know?), I shared my despair with her. (Did anyone bother to test how the gene change affected the piggy thyroid). She surprised me by posting me a homeopathic remedy called Thyroidinum (6c), with instructions to carry on with my normal tablets and 'chew one a day to see if it makes any difference'.
After about a month, I was surprised to realise that I hadn't topped up with any evening T3 for days. A few weeks on and I started to feel a bit hyper, so I cut the half grain....and so it has slowly gone on, every few weeks a little less. I've been on half a grain, every other day, for the last couple of weeks but haven't had any for three days now.
I am feeling well, temperature normal, bowels regular every morning. I am feeling absolutely blessed.
I cannot say that homeopathy alone has been my miracle cure. I cannot say if it will even last? I'm praying it does!
When I began the homeopathic remedy, I also began the World Council for Health Detox Diet. I am certain that it also helped me health wise.
I truly believe that I felt a distinct shift, within an hour of my first Pine Needle tea! (I've since discovered that the pineal gland is so named because it resembles a little pine tree- a seemingly amazing whole food signature)
I learned that Glyphosate is sprayed on sugar beet to increase the yield and so cut out absolutely everything with sugar. Honey my only sweetener. I also cut out all grains apart from organic oats, which has genuinely been a considerable challenge for me.
I take one large (or two small) cloves of raw organic garlic every day. Not so bad, I chop, cover with honey or liposomal vitamin C (so I don't taste it) spoon it to the back and swallow it down quickly with a drink. I understand it's antibacterial, antimicrobial, anti-carcinogenic, cardioprotective and immune boosting!
I take N-Acetyl Cysteine, which is said to help production of our body's own antioxidant, Glutathione, which can decline with age
I purchased a Home Water Distiller. Now I have seen (and smelled) the yellow oily residue left from distilling just 4 litres of tap water, I no longer soak in the bath and a whole system filter is high on my wish-list.
The little Armour aside, I've stopped every source of Stearate and Stearic Acid, which was costly. I threw out loads of supplements with these toxins, which are believed by some doctors, to accumulate in the body and interfere with gut absorption
I stopped using toothpaste, therefore no longer sublingually ingest any fluoride or chemicals. I have tried most alternatives recommended, settled on Coconut Oil with a little Bicarbonate of Soda. I make herbal mouthwash with distilled water, Rosemary and Star Anise
I apply D3/K2 topically and soak my feet (or whole self) in Epsom Salts for magnesium.
I'm not sure what I've done right. The only thing I am sure of, is how very grateful I am today, to be feeling as well as I do.
