Onederchic, if you have been diagnosed with hypthyroidism, you need to check out Angela Stokes blog. She was diagnosed at 11 and balances her thyroid with things like sea vegetables. The iodine in them helps somehow. Google her if you haven't before. She is a raw vegan, but I think her info on natural meds is quite interesting. I am always on the lookout for natural remedies. Love me some grapefruit seed extract!
