What are the best vitamins to take when you have hypothyroidism?
I have hypothyroidism and I'm trying to stay away from foods that are goitrogenic foods. Some of these foods contain my favorite veggies. I can't eat them raw, but I can eat as much as I want when they are cooked. Of course, everyone knows that when you cook veggies, they loose a lot of their nutritional value. What is the best vitamin I can take that contains a full days worth needed for my diet? If it helps, I'm a 22 year old female. I'm also overweight because I went a few years not knowing I had this syndrome and it caused me to gain a lot of weight (which is another reason why I'm asking this because I'm trying to loose the weight I've put on by switching to eating more fruits, veggies, and protein).
Thanks!

Ask your doctor that question, some medicines/vitamins you should not take while on thyroid medication. Don’t want to risk it =]

Ha! I was just diagnosed as hypo. Ask your doctor, and I don’t know for you, but for me I can any foods after the first hour, just no iron o calcium supplements within 4 hours of taking the medication. Look into that as well.
