Re: Tincture of Liquorice

[Guest guest]

After starting NDT, you should really increase it by half a

grain after 7 days, and stay on that dose for 3 to 4 weeks, before increasing

it again by another half grain. You need to get what not function - functioning

and the only way to do this is to find out exactly what dose NDT your body

needs. Don't try to titrate your dose by thyroid function test results because

it just doesn't work. If you ever take too much, your body will let you know a

couple of hours or so after taking the increase.

Exactly what adrenal support are you taking right now and how

much?

Hi Sheila, I'm pretty static ie. not bad but

only at 1grain of Thiroyd as I had to stop and start again with my NDT. BP

still goes down when I stand up and I have been on everything for adrenals

since January. I can't say that the liquorice tincture after a month has made

any dramatic difference though I am not one of the unfortunates who is really

suffering. I've done just about 2 weeks so far on 1grain of NDT & I'm going

really slowly. I can't make up my mind if my body is saying no to the NDT or if

it is saying " up the dose " .

Hi Sheila, I'm on 6 Nutri Adrenal Extra a day, 5000 Vit C, 2 Nutri Thyroid,

600mg Magnesium, 400mgs Selenium, 15mgs Zinc, Vit E, Vit D3 and a few other odds

and ends. Iron and B12 I'm stopping today as I have got my levels well up on

those. I sent you my blood test results in another message. You suggested I stop

my NDT about 5 to 6 weeks ago as I felt it was not working. I never got up to my

full dose for this reason and then I started again very slowly about a month ago

and have got up to 1 grain so far with the addition of the tincture of

liquorice. Having read the link you sent me I think it might be good idea if I

give the tincture of liquorice a rest. What do you think? Thanks

Well no wonder all your blood test results looked so great -

obviously, you have been taking the right tablets. And yes, I would come off

the liquorice tincture and see how you get on.

supplements as me but we are both making good progress....Val
