Hi people.
Can you post here the natural supplements that are good for thyroid balance?
People say Iodine is good for the thyroid.
I am shedding hairs from the eyelashes and eyebrow.
I have many signs od thyroid problem.
What other natural stuff can i take?
Raw Brazil nuts stimulate the thyroid. Take only 2 or 3 daily though, too much is bad.
All you need to know about thyroid is a.Stop the Thyroid Madness-site b. Dr.Brownstein’s Iodine-book.
Those are hypothyroidism symptons, alright. To make your thyroid start working again, do the following:
Lugol’s Iodine 5%, titrate/increase until you get detox sympton - then take atlantic raw unrefine seasalt or himalayan salt 1/2 tp with water and repeat this every half an hour until you get the need to urinate, to expel halogens out from your body. (chlorine, bromide, fluoride)
With that (it takes a year or two with Lugol’s even in high doses every day for many reasons i won’t explain now), take the following daily:
Niacin (I think one with flush is best, it at least shows that it works)
Riboflavin
Magnesium Amino acid chelate
Selenium
C-vitamin sustained 1000/1500 mg for some time at the beginning
–> C-vitamin 3000-6000mg a DAY
If iron levels fall too low during this regiment, take iron supplement along with B6 until it gets back up. Your thyroid can’t work if you iron levels are low in any way. Information about testing iron levels can be found from Stop the Thyroid Madness.
This all is taken from Dr.Brownstein’s Iodine-book. If you take thyroid hormones as well (preferably Armour thyroid or Lithiothyron), consider other vitamins - perhaps a good B-vitamin and mineral complexes in addition. Also, working out in gym raises the body’s need for T3, thus higher metabolism.
hope it helps & is clear enough. if you want to know your thyroid well, check those two i said. order the books if necessary.
Hairs shedding from the eyebrows mean low thyroid or high thyroid?
I was tested for hypothyroidism because hairl loss about half year before i started propecia. I remember that I was losing eyebrows at that time as well. However, they took TSH/T4 and other values that are not related to the thyroid gland. My thyroid values were excellent and the doc did not see the reason for thyroid broblem.
Now after one and half year after crash I am not loosing hair or eyebrows anymore at the rate as before and this trend has been for a while. Infact eyebrows seem to strengthened a little. I was tested for thyroid again 4 months ago because fin sides and TSH/T4 were practically the same as before propecia. TSH/T4 are excellent for now and that may indicate unchanged thyroid function. I am not sure does this necessarily mean that I dont have broblem with thyroid?! but what I think is that maybe something else seems to have affect to eyebrow shedding.
