Greetings from London Dr Nambudripad! Thank you for this video, i like the new style of moving from you presenting from your office to the slides, this keeps you as the expert/ teacher/ advisor central and thus yhe video personable. The lecture is thorough + easy to comprehend. Your supplements recommendations are great even if we cannot purchase them, and your shop information sheets are very helpful for finding close or matching supplements here in UK, the references and explanatory detail help with contextual understanding too. Advice on blood test prep (off biotin) is helpful too as Drs here can be a neglectful with this aspect when very busy or just on the phone (drs here have become call centre operators).

[@drrajsree]

Wonderful to hear from you in London! Your kind feedback is very encouraging! Thanks for noticing all the details and I'm so happy the video is helpful to you. Best wishes in your health, RN

[@tserevenad]

great video; helpful and informative. why no mention of TG ab? My TPO is 200, but my TG is about 1800. What does TG ab imply?

[@drrajsree]

Thyroglobulin antibodies are present in many healthy people, so it's not an antibody to diagnose autoimmune thyroid disease. It's often used by endocrinologists to follow patients after thyroid surgery for thyroid cancer to ensure there is no cancer recurrence (a way of detecting thyroid cells).

[@qingdaogrrl]

Interesting! How to manage Hashimoto's and MCAS simultaneously would be tremendously helpful! It's hard to figure out my daily schedule of meds/vitamins/meals :) Thanks!!

[@qingdaogrrl]

It's so weird. I have zero symptoms of Hashimoto's, but the labs showed I have it. But only labs done in December and February, not ever before in my entire life. Dealing with mold detox and MCAS, so maybe once those are "fixed" the thyroid can fix itself? I only just started taking meds this week. And coincidentally, this week my hair started coming out in clumps, so I finally have one symptom! Thanks again for posting such helpful info.

[@drrajsree]

Thanks for watching. I hope you've also seen my video on MCAS. Best wishes, RN

[@subhashchandra3318]

Ma'am my TSH is 6.12 my doctor prescribed me Sodium thyroxine tablets 12.5 mg can i ever heal it ❤

[@drrajsree]

Yes, as I mentioned in the video, sometimes when we support the thyroid with key nutrients we do see improvement in TSH.

Can I take thyroid supplements if I am taking levothyroxine

[@drrajsree]

Yes you can. Thanks so much for watching! 😊

[@farzanafarooqi6068]

Thank you !! What about digestive enzymes, can you take it if you have peptic ulcers?

[@Hellstaff01]

Great video !!! How about corn or oats? In sources claim they are ok, some say they should be avoided.

[@drrajsree]

A lot of people who react to gluten also react to corn and oats. These are definitely in a gray zone and everyone is different. Processed corn products may be more inflammatory than whole organic corn. Oat milk is not recommended as it is high glycemic index. Oats are also high in pesticides so organic only would be recommended.

[@aadialogue586]

Can HCL and Digestive Enzymes be taken together during a meal? (Very comprehensive video, thanks again.)

[@drrajsree]

Yes, they can be taken together during or after the meal. Thanks so much for watching!

My TSH result 0.09; FT3 5.49; FT4 7.66 can you please help me interpret and give some advice to what to take. Thank you Dr. for your informative content ❤

[@hemalatharaju1870]

Ma'am, I have a history of hypothyroidism with TPO antibody >600. My TSH in March 2024 was 0.016 and has reached 5.12 now. I'm 15 weeks pregnant and my doctor checked my TSH level during week 13 and put me on levothyroxine. But I'm not convinced with her approach

[@drrajsree]

I apologize I can't advise you here. It's important that hypothyroidism be treated properly during pregnancy for proper development of the fetus. You might also like my video on Hashimoto's which goes over diet tips that may help reduce your TPO Ab.

[@Starnes8887]

Do you know people that have gotten completely off levothyroxin & been able to manage thier thyroid? & is too much probiotics bad or maybe it was a coincidence for me but when i ran out 2weeks ago ive been having at least 1 bm regularly

[@drrajsree]

Very few are able to do this, but I have seen it before. If you need medication to feel optimal, then I recommend continuing because the thyroid is like the thermostat of your body. Please discuss with your doctor as well.

[@shivammas1111]

In India how to get these supplements mam

[@drrajsree]

We ship our supplements throughout the United States. Unfortunately, we do not ship to other countries yet due to challenges with shipping abroad. Thanks for watching! Best wishes, RN

[@ZashVi-vt5de]

if someone has low end thyroid (but still in reference range) can taking t4 tablets increase motility of the small intestine and gi tract?

[@drrajsree]

Since thyroid hormones influence gut motility, taking supplemental T4 should improve GI motility provided there is no problems converting T4 to T3.

[@Planckpudding]

Hi Dr, have you seen sleep disorders cause hypothyroidism / hashimotos?

[@drrajsree]

I have not seen this before, but sleep disorders can certainly strain the adrenals.

[@mellienazaire2715]

Hello Doctor! 👋 I’m taking levothyroxine for a year now. Started from 75mcg, down to 50mcg and now down to 25mcg. Don’t know what I have because my doctor never told me anything. The 1st doctor (male) said I have nodules on both sides of my thyroid. Can levothyroxine heal this nodules? Or is there another medication for this?

[@drrajsree]

Nodules are usually benign growths in the thyroid. The thyroid medication levothyroxine wouldn't shrink the nodules. But supporting the thyroid with diet and the key nutrients I mentioned in the video may help.

[@vaishalibaris1799]

My tsh 8,, vitamin d -5 from past 1 month im having medicine for both but still my skin and hair are dry ,what should be done plz suggest

[@drrajsree]

Please discuss your lab results and symptoms with your doctor. Sorry I can't advise you here.

[@emelylynnheuser]

I knew that T4 has to be taken 1h before eating but I have to split my T3 so I take half in the morning with my t4 and the other half at around 1pm with my lunch so I remember it. Is that bad? I can't wait 30-60min until eating because I would not remember it while working. Is T3 maybe not influenced by food and does get absorbed better ? Loved the video - Thank you!!!❤

[@drrajsree]

Yes many doctors recommend twice daily dosing of T3 due to the short half-life. The main thing is consistency. If this is how you always take it, your doctor can adjust your dose accordingly. Personally with my patients, I have them take the T3 once a daily along with the T4 due to problems remembering the 2nd dose. Thanks so much for watching!

My iron is always super low. When i get iron infusions, I feel great but when my levels drop, my thyroid starts acting up.
