Guest guest Posted September 9, 2006 Report Share Posted September 9, 2006 thyroid people have huge problems with digestion---everything is slowed down especially this area---thus less digestive enzymes are produced so you have more fat in your system clogging up the GB--- it's very common--- I have a thyroid group and anyone is welcomed to check it out. Thyroid_Helpers/ there are also many other thyroid groups at --- If you are on the correct amount of hormone all systems should be running more normally--but many still suffer from side effects. tina > > Hi! > > I have just joined and have really enjoyed reading your messages-- > such a wealth of information. > > Five years ago, when I was 22, I was diagnosed with gallstones.

Guest guest Posted September 9, 2006 Report Share Posted September 9, 2006 Very interesting what you say about poor digestion and poor thyroid function, I would agree with this! I am in the process of starting a natural and very safe treatment that I am hoping will solve this problem. will report to group once I have had time to evaluate its potential. anne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 9, 2006 Report Share Posted September 9, 2006 acid reflux is one of our first clues to low thyroid function---fyi left alone---you don't produce enough acid to digest your food-- especially fats and it goes right into the GB!!!! along with this symptoms of low thyroid--- a lot of this is age related---but 80% is autoimmune as well--- there are different forms of thyroid disease--- digestive enzymes will help a GREAT deal---- tina > > Very interesting what you say about poor digestion and poor thyroid function, > > I would agree with this!
