Thanks everyone for the all the info. Test was a Vit D 25-hydroxy - is that the right test? My levels were 19 - very low as the range is 32-100. I did start taking a tablet which was really inexpensive and is just labeled Vit D Cholecalciferol (not D3), it was all i could find besides the d3 w/gelatin and a bunch of other stuff in it. I decided to try this until I can find a better sou

I bought a bunch of shitake mushrooms but don't think that's going to cut it as my levels are very low. Dr.suggested 8000iu a day. And yes, ideally I would love to solve the problem b

Anyone have a recommmendation for a nutrion calculator? I'm going to be teaching a class to High school students and so preferably it will be a free download and easy to use. Not concerned about caloric count but more nutrition and minerals. I used one a few years ago that i like but cannot remember the site. Thanx in advance.

Hello I am in the processes of weaning myself off thyroid meds after having had thyroid cancer and taking meds for 20 years - I still have 1/2 thyroid left and i've learned that it is possible to reactivate and fully function this way. However, my chances of becoming hypo-thyroid are very high and my chance of recurrence are greater (according to the docs) - i'm hoping to just keep myself health

Thanks Rosmary, actually I am not trying to supress it, (my docs are). I am hoping to go off my medication and reactivate it. Found a naturopath willing to do this. So if anyone is interested, I did find out it IS possible to reactivate your thyroid, even after years of being medicated/suppressed. The problem lies in the belief that once it begins working on its own, chances or recurrence fo

I was thinking the same thing and was pleasantly surprised to find my local health food store had organic local spinach NYS, so i bought 2 bags. I know it's irrational but in the back of my mind I'm hesitating giving it to my son tomorrow morning in his smoothie. The media is a powerful tool.

Thanks all for your response. I decided to make some cookies with the meat and ditch the water - yes...it was dissapointing - I have been waiting a while to get the coconuts and just eat them fresh trying to relive days on the beach...oh well......maybe next month they'll be fresh. I'll let you know if i get sick.

Hello I just bought some young Thai coconuts and when I received them ( I order thru a buying club) they were wrapped in plastic wrap and a bit moldy. I took them anyway thinking that it was just from the wrap and the inside would be fine. I opened them and the water & meat tasted ok, not super fresh compared to straight off the tree. Also, the water and meat had a brownish tint. I th
