It is better to keep it simple and not mix many things. Take good care of your body by exercising everyday. Do learn yoga which can be very beneficial. Eat healthy and balanced diet with fruits and vegetables. Read about thyroid conditions and how it can be managed with healthy lifestyle and proper medications. Go for regular health check up and do the tests as suggested by your doctor. It is the holistic approach that will help naturally healing. You can contact me for further details.
