Guest guest Posted February 27, 2002 Report Share Posted February 27, 2002 One of the first things to do is make sure you are getting enough iodine. If you put a half dollar sized spot of tincture of iodine on, say, your inner thigh, and it is gone by the time 24 hours have passed, then you are deficient in iodine and your body is sucking it up through your skin. So keep on putting the iodine on until it stays for 24 hours. Be sure you exercise vigorously for at least 45 minutes each day. You can use a videotape for this. If you have even 5 extra pounds, lose them. Ask at a health food store about a supplement for low thyroid activity. It should have a certain amino acid in it--I forget it but they will know. Get your doctor to give you Armour thyroid. It is much better than what you are currently taking. Take a good multi vitamin-mineral supplement at a good high dose for a couple of months anyway. It will be worth the money. These things alone will probably be very sufficient. I hope so. Your life style sounds almost heavenly.

However, today the windchill is about -5 and at 5 am that's a shock to the system!! LOL! The best part is that I don't have to eat that awful "store chicken". All those chemicals added to it are terrible. I'll I have been taking a thyroid supplement for a couple weeks. This is what the label says is in it..iodine (113mcg), Zinc (5mg), Copper (300mg), L-Tyrosine (300mg), Coleus forskohili (whole plant-50 mg), Rhodiola rosea (root 30 mg). Does that sound like good mix?? The weight... I'll be working on that.... Lynnette Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
