I know we're pretty focused on the craziness going on in politics right now, and so we have moved on from anything related to illness, but this is the best place I know of to ask anything about ivermectin and people's success with it.
Has anyone here, or anyone you know, used ivermectin for anything relating to thyroid issues? Such as hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, thyroid cancer, Hashimoto's, or Grave's disease?
I am currently dealing with subclinical hypothyroidism and want to avoid taking the typical medication prescribed for it because of the side effects. I'm trying to change my diet, removing foods that cause inflammation or an autoimmune response, and add the right vitamins and supplements, however it will take some time to notice much of a difference in symptoms.
Since ivermectin is such a wonder drug for practically everything else, I wanted to see if it has any effect on healing the thyroid. So does anyone have any info on if it could help or not?
Thanks for any advice you can give. God bless!
I think my body being over-worked and extremely stressed in the past year has led to adrenal fatigue, which in turn led to my body attacking my thyroid. Added sugars I've noticed make my symptoms worse, but natural sugars like from fruit or honey are okay for me.
I've read that caffeine and alcohol are really bad for your thyroid so I'm avoiding those. I've never had much taste for either so it's not a big sacrifice.
I've never heard of Methlyene Blue being an alternative. I'll look into it, thanks!
That makes sense. I have heard a lot of people saying that being stressed / over-worked (especially when low on glycogen) or consuming too much PUFA are the two ways the thyroid gets suppressed. Which means that most people now are at least a little hypothyroid.
I wonder if information on caffeine being bad for thyroid wasn't because it was taken on an somewhat empty stomach. I have noticed that now that I am careful to always have coffee either with a meal or heavily sweetened, it no longer gives me jitter(which I assume were from adrenaline, which would suppresses thyroid).
