[QUOTE="DCUKMod, post: 2349268, member: 345386"] You mention you have a low thyroid? Vitamin deficiencies are very common in hypothyroid patients; particularly, although not exclusively those with Hashimoto's Thyroiditis. You may not even know whether or not you have Hashi's as patients aren't always told. Whilst your bloods may be in range, "in range" and optimal are not always the same thing. It would make sense if you had a copy of your blood results. Personally, I'm not keen on multivitamins as they usually contain a small amount of everything whether or not you need it, and if you need a vitamin or mineral supplement, the amounts in multivitamins are unlikely to be appropriate to you individually. Where I find myself with low levels of something, like, say Vitamin D, I will add an appropriate supplement to target that. I figure if I want my Vitamin D levels (just as an example) to rise, I don't necessarily need to take Vitamin C, E, A or whatever else is packaged in the multi-vitamin. Do have a read up on R-ALA, and have a search on forum for threads discussing it. [/QUOTE]
