What are the best herbal supplements for a weak thyroid?!


Question: What are the best herbal supplements for a weak thyroid?
I thought I was dying, turns out the only thing wrong with me is the doctor said my body is attacking my thyroid and it is hypothryoidism which means I have trouble with energy levels, blood sugar, fatigue, feeling faint after short outings and basically the only time i feel good is when im either sitting down or resting.

Its sucks, and I haven't been told to go on medication for it yet, so I was thinking of buying herbal supplements online for it instead first before i get a follow up blood test in 6 weeks.

Does anyone know on yahoo answers of any decent thyroid herbal supplements that helped them?

I am willing to buy some.

THANKS.

Answers:

Iodine tablets. You can get them from your local chemist no prescription needed take as recommended on the bottle

I take them.



There is no herbal product with scientific evidence supporting its use for thyroid problems. You should not waste your money on them, they are sold by quacks who are just trying to make some money cheating sick people.



There is NOTHING herbal, natural or otherwise OTC that can treat hypothyroidism. You need real medicine, prescribed by a physician. (Iodine is only going to turn your mouth purple.)



just be bit careful because end up having false readings if take to much iodine.i would go back to dr ask why you not being treated and why you have to put up with this.



try taking seaweed. Anything that has organic iodine in a kelayted form can suppliment the iodine.
