Guest guest Posted September 22, 1998 Report Share Posted September 22, 1998 Hi Everyone: I found that Lecithin is good for stomach problems related to hyperthyroidism. I take 3 capsules per day. Each contains 555 mg oil based soy lecithin. One is taken before breakfast, one at lunch and one before dinner. It is important to take Lecithin before you eat as it aids in digestion of fats and protects the lining of all cells and organs. You can take the granules and sprinkle them over a fruit bowl, vegetables and etc. Prescription for Nurtritional Healing recommends 1,200 mg 3 times daily before meals. One word of caution, if any of you women have fiber cystic breast disease, as I do, be careful to reduce your intake of Lecithin as it contains soy, which is also estrogen. Excessive estrogen for people with fibercystic breast disease and current and previous cancer of the breast, uterus, cervix, ovaries need to exercise caution in the amount of lecithin used as it can fuel cancer in these areas if excessive amounts are taken. Some studies indicate that. I use the lower dose to be on the safe side. It has helped my nausea and it is good for reducing blood pressure and artherisclerosis. Often times, people in thyroid storms will experience increased blood pressure. Also, essential fatty acids helps to correct glandular function. Hope this helps. ______________________________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 22, 1998 Report Share Posted September 22, 1998 Hi Everyone Again: I kind of contradicted myself about the Lecithin. I told you to take it before meals and then I said to sprinkle the granules on fruit or vegetables. I was thinking more of the capsules and did not think about the fact that not too many people would care to take granules by the spoonfuls into their mouths. OOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! Obviously, if you are taking granules, you would have to put them on something. In that case, this particular preparation would have to be put on food and eaten. I think in either case, the results would be the same. Sorry for the confusion. ______________________________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
