Hi Mom with the low thyroid problem. Jump start that thyroid with kelp (for iodine & other nutrients) and a good stress tablet mealtimes & bedtime (4 x per day). Stress tabs are mainly B complex with vitamins C & E. If you find yourself getting hyper or nervous & fidgety after a week or two, go have your thyroid bloodwork checked and go home leaving off thyroid med. and cutting stress tabs to one per day until you get the report. If its still low, resume the above. If you are feeling better from decrease and bloodwork is normal range, continue kelp and stress tabs xl/d. If you start feeling sluggish again, step the stress tabs up and improve your eating habits by leaving off all carbonated beverages and other junk foods.
