Guest guest Posted April 1, 2011 Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 Hi Jackie, I had a very severe vitamin D sufficiency and took tablets for a year - but they made virtually no difference! I now take drops from BioCare and my levels are improving - over 30 at the last test. The supplement I use is Bio-D Liquid vitamin D - http://www.biocare.co.uk/default.aspx?GroupGuid=29 & ProductGuid=75115 & PageItemGro\ upGuid=187 Hope that helps.

My D3 test came back below 6 showing a severe deficiency even though I was already taking 1000ugs per day. I have now ordered some 5000ug tablets. --- avast! Antivirus: Outbound message clean.

Guest guest Posted April 1, 2011 Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 Yes, you most certainly should feel a difference as your low levels of vitamins/minerals rise, but as to how long you need to supplement is up to each individual. You supplement until your levels DO rise and you start to feel better. You should eat foods high in iron. Luv - Sheila My Ferritin is at 27 and I have just started taking 400 mg Ferrous sulphate.

I have my first endo appointment in six weeks so I'm trying to resolve these issues myself until then. My question is; Do you feel any difference as the levels raise and how long should I be expecting this to take? My doc thinks I'm T3 resistant and I'm hoping this may turn around if I get my vitamin & mineral levels optimal. _._,___ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
