Re: MMS and hypothyroidism

March 11, 2012

Thanks for all of your responses!

Do you think from your own personal experience that MMS affects the thyroid and

its functioning, especially if there is a weakness there already?

It is so true that each one of us has our own unique journey while we battle

lyme and co's. My friend would like to try taking the MMS again, but cannot

funtion at all with no working thyroid.

I'm starting to think that I have the same issue, and will be going to get my

thryoid levels checked this week. I also went off of the MMS in late January,

and have not seen a return of my energy since. When I posted back then, many

told me that I had overdone it (I was taking up to 24 drops a day after only 4

months(?))and was herxing, but now I am thinking perhaps I did some damage. I

am going to post this same question from above onto the Genesis Forum.
