Re: One more Vit D3 benefit

[Guest guest]

HI BOB

Its all very well to say that lack of vit D can cause pelvic floor problems in

women, but there could be another answer as some like myself cannot cope wth the

hot weather which in turn could be part of the thyroid problem so one therefore

will not go out in the heat which is a main source of VIT D. However on browsing

the web to find an answer as why I am not having much luck with thyroxine I cam

across this interesting article on TH-1 TYPE AUTOIMMUNE DISEASE,and this

treatment involves no VIT D and to keep out of the heat. It also involves

treatment with BENICAR which is supposed to reduce the inflammation by reducing

ANGIOTENSIN 11. This in turn stops fibrotic tissues, and once the inflammation

has been reduced some low dose antibiotics can be used. I already have problems

in taking antibiotics, but this is the headline of the article that has to be

followed through its links

" WHY ISNT MY SYNTHROID WORKING HOW TO HELP LEVOTHYROXINE " and the web comes

under-----endocrine-disorders.suite101.com/article.cfm

Let me know your views on this article
