What kind of diet supplement is safe with thyroid meds?

Question

I'm on Hypo-thyroid meds and am wondering if a diet pill would be safe.

Answer 1

please consult a doctor. about twice a week, in the am, i take 1 hydroxycut. that's it.
here is some information about myself, plus some symptoms in case anyone coming upon your question may be interested;
i have low thyroid. if you have low thyroid...here's a great question to answer: can you see the floor of your house? that was what was asked of me at one point, and to my amazement, the answer was no!
anyway, the signs are:fatigue and lack of energy. Women suffering from underactive thyroid experience heavier menstrual periods. Sluggishness and forgetfulness are symptoms of underactive thyroid problem. Other symptoms of this thyroid disorder are dry skin and hair and constipation.
if you have high thyroid, or an overactive one, the signs are:increased body metabolism. This is followed by weight loss and excessive warmth and sweating. Persons suffering from overactive thyroid experience trembling hands, irritability and rapid heartbeat or palpitations. Women with overactive thyroid or hyperthyroidism may experience shorter or lighter menstrual periods.
I take medication, and sadly will have to take 1 pill everyday for the rest of my life. there's a blood check that they will do to see if you have low or high. i hope i've helped you!!

Answer 2

I'm hypo too, diet pills are not a good idea. Try what I call conservative eating. That involves drinking alot of water, replace pop and coffee with water, don't eat any candy, or sugary stuff, eat alot of fruits and veggies and eat healthy. Try walking, yoga, stretches to lose weight at a good rate. Diet pills make you lose by stimulating the system and with thyroid meds that's not healthy to do.
