Thyromine Review and Customer Feedback

How much does your thyroid play on being overweight?

Diana J asked:


I take thyroid medicine and it seems that when I started taking thyroid medicine years ago I started putting on weight. Now I am quite a bit overweight. Nothing seems to help. My thyroid has never been regulated right. Doctors just don’t seem to pay much attention when I bring this up.

   it can play a big part in your over all health;as well, as you do thru diet + exercise,you need to see an endocrinologist .

   Find another doctor and insist.

   I’m severely hypothyroid. Without meds my TSH is 128 (normal is 4-10′ish). I still lost 198 lbs in 11 months on the Kimkins diet, which is low calorie low carb. Another member, Lynda, lost 213 lbs in 10 months (see her story below).

   If you have insurance ask for a referral to an endocrinologist. It’s not just about body weight, your thyroid regulates every single organ in your body, including your heart and liver (cholesterol).
