I notice some indulge in soy products and they may be Just Fine. I was not years ago when I started with the soymilk craze when it hit the U.S. I was getting off any dairy milk products and so walla, the soy enters. So I started buying and drinking it. Then found I was so fatigued and when I would go to the chiro for his work, I would drag myself into his office. He tested me for soy intolerance and sure enough...he said "get off it".... I did I'm just fine now. www.verywellhealth.com/soy-and-the-thyroid-3231800The soy institute will tell you it's just fine but they SELL IT. Something to be aware of if Fatigue is an issue, as Soy is said to inhibit thyroid function. |

JM it interferes with the absorption of my thyroid pill. Nkat My sister has bugged me a few times to get my thyroid tested because it runs in the family. But I've had the full set of blood tests 2 or 3 times now and my numbers are fine. My sister doesn't drink soy milk but does drink rice or almond milk. |

But I've had the full set of blood tests 2 or 3 times now and my numbers are fine. My sister doesn't drink soy milk but does drink rice or almond milk. I was hit with a clinical depression right after menopause, so I was in my 50's..and for 10 miserable years doctors I went to for help kept testing thyroid and labs were all good in the eyes...but I was not...and giving me more anti depressant drugs all those yrs. Then a D.O. I had for years for back issues and I talked about thyroid and he put me on a theraputic dose of Armour and in 4 days depression lifted. Thyroid is so missed and docs live by those labs and we are Symptoms folks, not numbers. But if you are all fine with your soy consumption then fine...but something to keep in mind. |

I don't suffer from depression or fatigue and my thyroid is fine. And yes I'm fine with my soy consumption. |
