Herbal Supplement For Iron Deficiency

Question: How long does hypothyroidism take to manifest? Twice I have tested low on my TSH levels, the later test involving both T3 and T4. My doctor now sent me a prescription for synthroid a few days ago that I have yet to fill. The only reason I even had my thyroid checked in the beginning was because of some infection they thought my toe had that really wasn't that bad and the antibiotics ended up making me feel worse because they were too strong, which is a whole 'nother story. I've had a few CBCs, but I guess that doesn't indicate thyroid function because they never told me anything. I know what the symptoms are for hypothyroidism, but I don't have any of them. I mean, yeah I'm sleepy or drowsy when I get less than 7-8 hrs sleep and I do have iron deficiency anemia which could be the cause of that. I get hot or cold when it is truly hot or cold and everyone else feels it. My hair and nails continue to grow without abandon and my skin is not pale (I'm tan) or flaky, although it may be dry from time to time because I have had eczema all my life. So if I actually did have hypthyroidism would I know it right off or would it take some time? If anything, I would have HYPERthyroidism as I only weigh around 125-130 lbs and 5'7". I'm freakin skinny! In the meantime I'm taking an herbal supplement my mom already had in the cabinet that is kelp and alfalfa that has 100% DV iodine. IDK how much good that'll do since I don't feel symptoms anyway.

Answer: I have this but have no answer for this question. I do know the hot and cold can get really bad too. I hope your doing well with your infection as well.

Question: What topic should i pick for my major research report for food/nutrition course? Basically i have a major report (ISU)(independant study unit) its for the course food and nutrition in grade 12. I need a topic with tons of articles sources and information if someone can pick top 3 from the following that would be ever so nice. Food allergies, calcium osteoporosis, effect of caffeine, lactose intolerance, food for athletes, women & iron deficiency, malnutrition & elderly, colon cancer & fibre intakes, childhood obesity, folic acid& neural tube defects, food additives, vegetarian diets (concern for protein), artificial sweeteners effects, diabetes, anti-cancer food, soy beans-food for future, Trans fats, cholesterol & arteriosclerosis, sugar: (dental, hyperactivity, obesity, diabetes) , low car diets vs. Canada’s food guide, dietary supplements (safe?, new? Needed?), digestive disorders, hypo glycaemia, high protein diets (effect on kidney), organic foods (government regulations, terminology, new technology), fast food, Eating disorders: anorexia, Bulimia, Compulsive eating (choose 1), Fad diets (South beach diet, Atkins etc Choose 1), Serving sizes (have they changed?, effects on weight, attitude, learning ability), Tap water vs. bottled water, Holistic medicine, herbal supplements, Red wine (benefits/ heart health), Salt (hyper tensions & risk to health), chocolate (flavorids, healthful properties).

Answer: I think the easiest one would be Fad Diets. There are tons of them out there. You can turn on the TV and see commercials for like 5 different ones in about 20 mins.... Jenny Craig, Nutri-System, Weight Watchers, etc.... Fast Food would be another easy one. Everyone knows that fast food is pure garbage, yet American's can't get enough of it! Watch the movie, "Supersize Me" if you want inspiration. One topic taht wasn't on here that I thought would be good is Vegan Diets VS. The Meat and Dairy Diets. You could explain the benefit of eating Vegan (or Vegetarian) as opposed to a diet consisting of meats and dairy. For example, you can explain the health benefits of a vegan diet as well as the effect it has on our environment... or the negative effect that the meat and dairy industry have on our environment. Also, the ways in which the meat industry is a "dirty" business - sick animals being used in food, causing mad cow disease, poor working conditions for slaughter house workers, the horrendous abuse of animals to promote the USDA, etc.... I could go on and on. Wow, you should just hand me the assignment because I would be all over it with this topic! Good luck! :)

Answer: Food allergies, effect of caffeine and childhood obesity are interesting and you will have no problem finding references. Frankly speaking, you should pick what you find interesting. You can always find enough references to put together a nice report. Good luck.

Answer: I say pick tap vs bottled. there is a huge amount of information out there - heaps of people have studied this, it is fairly straight forwrd and relevant to everyone. Especially if you touch on the crisis water bottles are adding to the rubbish and landfill issue.
