Re: Your NUTRITIONAL NEEDS are GREATER now

[Guest guest]

interesting - I never had leg cramps - until I switched to Armour! I've had them

ever since.

My TSH is points lower than it was on synthroid. STill - I know that I need

more. But - I find it interesting about the cramps in my calf muscles.

Tish's post reminds me to remind everyone that you need to be on

good supplements, especially high potency B-vitamins. Your need for

them increases with hypothyroid, JUST AS it increases as you improve

your health and metabolism with natural thyroid.

Additionally, there may be absorption problems that remain even with

good treatment.

I have noted a huge increase in my nighttime leg cramps, and I am

suspecting that I am not getting enough magnesium in what I eat. I

also am one who HAS to be on daily iron, otherwise my levels drop

drastically.

There is a good supplement list in the FILES section. We should all

take heed.
