>>>>>>After three weeks her blood test indicated a drop in the hormone level to normal. An interesting story. I have two concerns: 1. "RAW POTASSIUM BROTH" potassium can be troublesome if consumed in large quanities. It is closed involved in the electrical regulation of the heart and excess can lead to troublesome/fatal heart arrythmias. 2. HOW LONG WILL HER LEVEL STAY NORMAL????? The thyroid level may be normal now but I think that she needs to stay vigilent on the test results. A diabetic can watch their diet closely and get a good result on the blood sugar, that doesn't mean that it is then OK forever and they don't have to stay on the eating plan that lead them to the good result. ****************************************************************** *Jon Ahrendsen, MD, (FAAFP, LLLI Medical Associate) * *215 13th Ave., SW * *Clarion, IOWA 50525 USA * *Phone (515)-532-2836, FAX (515)-532-2523 * *Email: [log in to unmask] * *****************************************************************
