Thryoid Question

Royal Jelly huh? Haven't heard of that - what does it do? What is it exactly? I'm definitely interested

I'm eager to be gluten-free and am counting down the days until that produre is over. eating that way in addition to the supplements (Trying antioxidant/mutli from DR. Weil and a Krill Oil with Evening Primose from Dr. Mercola, in addition to Emergen C and, for now, an Iron supplement....when I can go to eating lean proteins veggies, and not worrying about Gluten, I have a feeling my energy will sky rocket.

I hope you find relief with the thryoid dosage. I wish it wasn't a battle for you to be treated. Based on what Im reading, I'm feeling very grateful that I've found at least one doc who seems to "get it". I believe integrated mds are def the way to go.

Royal Jelly- i think is from the Queen Bee... it is supposed to calm the Grave's antibodies. **if u have an allergy to bees- suggested to avoid it.

and Selenium helps both abs..

i got this info from the guys at:

www.greenmedinfo.com

they compile hundreds of medical articles- so u can search for a disease or supplement and come up with a bunch of studies relating to it.

i also read somewhere about a mushroom supplement that's supposed to calm an overactive immune system- but i cant find the link, and am kind of already overwhelmed with the $$$ of stuff i take already.

I know! The price of all these supplements are crazy! I will look into the royal jelly.

Looking forward to wed. ugh. I feel like crap and just want to get this over with. Cannot wait to go gluten-free at this point!

The cloudy/headedness is crazy. it's odd b/c I didn't really notice it as a symptom at first, and then went gluten-free... and now that I'm glutening up, I'm lightheaded/foggy/dizzy every day (thinking the hashi's plays a part but still)....again, cannot wait to be done with this

Whether it comes out positive or not, I think it's clear to me that I feel better without it

      There are other Celiac genes. HLA DQ 2 and HLA DQ 8 show up in people from Northern European descent.   People of Mediterranean descent have HLA DQ 7.  People of Asian descent have HLA DQ 9.   There's other Indigenous populations that have other HLA genes that code for Celiac disease.   Are you still having symptoms?   What do you include in your diet?  Are you vegetarian? Are you taking any prescription medication?  Omeprazole?  Metformin?   Do you have anemia?  Thyroid problems? Are you taking any vitamins or herbal supplements?

      There are eight essential B vitamins.  They are all water soluble.  Any excess of B vitamins is easily excreted by the kidneys.   Thiamine is Vitamin B 1.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Benfotiamine and TTFD are forms of Thiamine that the body can utilize very easily.   The form of Thiamine in the supplements you mentioned is Thiamine Mononitrate, a form that the body does not absorb well and does not utilize well.  Only about thirty percent of the amount on the label is actually absorbed in the small intestine.  Less than that can actually be used by the body.  Manufacturers add thiamine mononitrate to their products because it's cheap and shelf-stable.  Thiamine and other B vitamins break down when exposed to light and heat and over time.  Thiamine Mononitrate is a form that does not break down over time sitting on a shelf waiting for someone to buy them.  What makes Thiamine Mononitrate shelf stable makes it difficult for the body to turn into a useable form.  In fact, it takes more thiamine to turn it into a useable form.   Gastrointestinal Beriberi is a localized shortage of Thiamine in the gastrointestinal tract.  High carbohydrate meals can result in gastrointestinal symptoms of Gastric Beriberi.  Fiber is a type of carbohydrate.  So, high fiber/carbohydrate snacks could trigger Gastric Beriberi.   Since blood tests for Thiamine and other B vitamins are so inaccurate, the World Health Organization recommends trying Thiamine and looking for health improvement because it's safe and nontoxic.

      Thanks very interesting I have to see if I should take these 2 vitamins along with my multi and super Vit B complex or if its too much or would hurt me. I don't have any other health issues but would love to see if this improves anything especially to feel stronger build muscle.
