I am amazed, in reading through the tests and micronutrient deficiencies related to hypothyroidism that iodine is never even mentioned. Even Dr. Wentz mentions 7 nutrient deficiencies in hypothyroidism, but not iodine. As a nation we are ingesting 50% of the iodine compared to 1970.Cruciferous vegetables interfere with iodine absorption. They test TSH and...

As you are already on a gluten free diet the tests will be negative. You might consider DNA testing for genetic markers for celiac. Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption. Of the doctors you mentioned the naturopath seems the most knowledgeable and proactive. Adrenal Insufficiency (not adrenal fatigue which is in the realm of quackery) might be...

So, out of curiosity, what treatments does he recommend? Make out your will?

"Although celiac disease is readily considered in patients with classical presentations of the disease, atypical manifestations may be the only presenting symptoms. We present a case of celiac disease in a 16-year-old female presenting as fever of unknown origin, which has not been reported previously...if celiac disease was more readily considered in the...

The ribs and hips and another bone (its been awhile since I read the research) have more potassium than calcium. "phosphorus makes up about 1 to 1.4% of fat-free mass. Of this amount, 85% is in bones and teeth...Antacids that contain aluminum hydroxide, such as Maalox HRF and Rulox, bind phosphorus in the intestines, and their chronic use for...

No. The RDA's are simply the minimum needed to avoid specific risks determined by that particular committee. Every body needs more than 100%, especially Celiac, anorexia and other diseases that affect absorption (like potassium in IBS). So we take supplements because it is easier, not because it is better. I think a lot of people believe they are good at...

One day I found a website that will create a meal plan based on your nutritional goal. I requested a plan for 100% RDA Potassium. They came back with a plan that looked very good. The note at the end of the page: "This plan supplies almost half of the daily requirement for potassium." In the end I made a spreadsheet that uses the US nutritional database and...

"These findings suggest caution in the interpretation of a negative IgA tTG to rule out celiac disease in clinical practice." That's still 50% fewer people who need biopsy to diagnose positive.

My most notable symptoms were sleep apnea, enlarged prostate(diagnosed at age 25, cleared at age 64), protein buildup on contact lenses, alcoholism, back pain, and many others already listed for a grand total of eighteen things that I was told is not abnormal for some people and nothing to be done. Kudo's to your doctor for picking it up so fast. He is one...

I had to go up to 250 mcg (10,000 IU) of D3 before it broke my depression. After 4 days I was smiling and calling it sunshine in a bottle. After 2 years at 250 mcg then a two week break my D3 blood level was still only 34. It's been 6 years.

You are living the gluten challenge already. You have given a best effort but you don't need a doctor's validation to tell you that. There are more than 200 known celiac disease symptoms which may occur and doctors will tend to treat you for them first. Most of the nutrition benefits of gluten is in the added vitamins and minerals mandated by law. In 197...

Fermented foods like pickles, made with salt not vinegar will help replenish the good bacteria in your gut. Specifically the lactobacillus, which helps break down lactose, some say it is more important than than the lactase our bodies make because we only make a limited amount and the lactobacillus takes up the slack. Ingredients: Kirby cucumbers, kosher...

Why doesn't anyone make a supplement of 100% RDA (the minimum required) of all of the vitamins and minerals? Babies have Nutramigen.

100 grams of raw pinto beans is 1393 mg of potassium. They double in weight when cooked so one cup of cooked pintos (193 gm) is almost 1400 mg potassium and 175 mg magnesium. A 12 oz. glass of milk is between 500 to 600 mg potassium and 36 magnesium. One ounce (30 gm) of whole almonds has 81 mg magnesium and 220 mg potassium. Magnesium modulates the sodium...

Try 100% Pasture Fed milk. It feels creamier and tastes better. If I have a glass or regular milk at bedtime is bothers me. !00% pasture fed does not. To be classified Organic milk only needs 120 days pasture. Dairy Fat is Healthy (mooscience.com)

An adult dose of 10 oz of magnesium citrate results in a consumption of approximately 2000 mg of elemental magnesium per single dose. No wonder it works as a laxative. One ounce has 200 mg of magnesium. Slow-Mag has 143 mg per two capsules. 2 ounces of almonds has 162 mg and 440mg potassium. The magnesium RDA minimum is 420 mg. The RDA upper limit for supplemental...
