If you have thyroid issues, may I recommend Herb Pharm's Nettle/

Bladderwrack herbal extract compound.

I had a serious weight issue, but, most disturbingly, I had a

" cosmetic " issue with a bulge at the base of my neck (i.e., the

thyroid). Being a nutritionist, I also had an issue with having a

thyroid issue - I mean, what kind of nutritionist would I be if I

couldn't use what I know to fix what I know can be fixed?

I used @50 drops of the nettle/bladderwrack compound twice daily for

about 6 months. Not only did my neck get much thinner, but I had an

almost effortless weight loss (100 lbs. over the course of a year).

(Granted, I was eating low carb - no starches, i.e., no breads, pasta,

sugars, potatoes, rice, ice cream, cakes, cookies, and so on...

interestingly, that diet led me to raw foods - there wasn't much else

I was eating, so it was easy to go very raw -- I'd say 80%, just

because I am not a saint, and I do backslide sometimes)

There are some other naturopathic and homeopathic compounds out there,

which I have tried, but the Herb Pharm compound is the one that has

given me the best benefit. My last bottle cost me $8.79)

Consider suspecting " sugar sensitivity " -- it will do the same thing

to you as gluten sensitivity, and, if you suspect that, and drop wheat

and sugars, you will probably get the best benefit.

Thanks, Margaret! I'll try that! I typically avoid sugar anyway... not

necessarily consciously, but because I prefer salt over sugar (something to

do with my adrenal insufficiency). (Yes, sounds like I'm a mess, I know! I

really do quite well considering all the crazy immune issues I have!!)

 

I'll look into the Nettle/Bladderwrack extract right away! Thanks for the

information! It's so nice to have experienced/knowledgeable feedback!

I'm very interested in this topic since I have a thyroid condition.

I have four nodules (fluid-filled) on both sides. They are not

cancerous but I have been having them checked via sonograms every six

months. I just had one done the other day. I wonder if eating raw

might just make them go away. I was put on medication for awhile and

decided I should try dealing with it in a natural way. However, I'm

rather clueless about naturopathic remedies. I'm wondering what the

reasons are for staying away from soy, too.
