Guest guest Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 Dear Group, I am wondering if anyone may have experience with Hyperparathyroidism and if there are any treatments that I can use to supplement my megadoses of Vitamin D that I am currently doing to help this condition. (I am taking 100K IU dry vit D3 weekly). I have read that once the parathyroid gland is enlarged, it will continue to put out too much PTH (Parathyroid hormone) until it is removed. I don't believe that taking out a hormone can be a good thing, so wondering if now, since my PTH levels are finally within the normal range from all the Vit D, that I take, if there is something else that could help to decrease the swelling of the Parathyroid gland? I have malabsorption of my vitamins due to a BPD/DS that I had in 2002. Thanks for any suggestions or experience that you my have to share with me.

I got myself one of those Idiot's guide to Reflexology and I am trying to learn something from it. Hi , Healing Touch is the name of my practice. However reflexology is very effective -- just use the chart and massage the points on the bottom of the feet -- you can also use essential oils on those points -- Negative feedback is a description on how the endocrine system works -- when one gland is low in hormones or minerals, another gland will produce more of what it does to rebalance the system -- however when toxins get into the system, they can wreak havoc with the endocrine system -- example: There are four halogens: iodine, chlorine, fluorine, bromine -- iodine is the smallest, lightest element/molecule. Iodine is a necessary element to make the endocine system work. Nearly ALL of our flour products are made with brominated flour -- we eat this and it gets into our system. Since it's the largest of the halogens, it bumps off the iodine molecule and replaces it with bromine -- not good -- most of us are iodine deficient. Just one small example of how toxins are interfering with our endocrine system, julie , CMT Healing Touch Therapeutic Massage 8605 Sudley Rd Manassas, Va 20110 703-530-0100 ************ ********* ********* ******** See what's new at http://www.aol. com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
