Hi! I have no thyroid due to non-hodgkins lymphoma several years ago. I've only been raw since November, but haven't had any problems and I feel great. I do take synthroid each day, use Vitamineral Green in smoothies and I take a B-12 supplement, but other than that, I do not take any meds or other supplements.

There are several of us on this board with thyroid issues. If you do a search, you can pull up previous threads and read those. Other than that, what kind of info might you be looking for?
