Synthroid walnuts
Common Questions and Answers about Synthroid walnuts
synthroid
Certain foods, including walnuts, can interfere with the absorption of Synthroid, as well at other replacement thyroid hormones, such as Levothyroxine, Levoxyl, etc. The recommendation is to separate these foods from the medication by 2-4 hrs. Of course, it would depend on how many walnuts one is eating, but if there's proper separation there shouldn't be any trouble with absorption.
Most medication pamphlets don't have some of these specific cautions on them.
When i has hyper or since surgery my sleeping hasnt changed Im ALWAYS tired. My endo put me on 100 mcg of synthroid on 3/9/13 and off i went. About two weeks taking synthroid i develpoed this rash that looked like the measles which would come and go every two weeks for the first two months and my joint pain was awefull. I called my endo and she said i have to give it more time to my body to get use to the meds.
After going to this prestigious endo my GP swore by who took me off my Armour and put me on synthroid and cytomel he finally put me back on armour. Syntroid just made me feel sick and dizzy etc. I hope this is a better time around. Nothing seems to sastify my body but i did do the best on armour, so this endo who has never and wont prescribe armour said im a special case who he will give it to.haha.Cause if he he doesnt my GP will. lol.
1 cup) of ready prepared walnuts. Almost never eat walnuts in this way. Sometimes in salads, so just a couple at a time. Anyway, the result, almost instant tongue pain. Like I'd touched my tongue with a hot poker. Also, I felt that the mucus lining from throat went! I am now down with very heavy cold/cough. No temperature, glands only slightly raised. Any link to eating the walnuts or just coincidence?
Walnuts are safe to eat as long as you're not allergic to them. They're high in (good) fat.
I find walnuts easily go rancid. I source my supply, buy them in bulk and keep the walnuts in the freezer, except for a jarful or so, which I keep in the fridge.
The one problem with them is that when they're good, I can't stop eating them.
I'm not sure why you're associating your weight loss with HCV. Did your doctor say there's a connection?
Today I had some ice cream that had walnuts in it. In the past I've had nothing more than itchy lips and throat. Today, however, my symptoms were vastly different. With in 30 minutes of ingesting 2 spoonfuls of the ice cream I experienced the following:
*itchy face, eyes, throat, neck and ears
*itchy, swollen lips
*oral ulcerations
*itchy, swollen and later numb tongue
*numb hard and soft pallet
*nausea
*headache
*tightness in chest
I know that each allergy has it's different ratings.
Researchers at Tufts University in Boston wanted to examine the effects of walnuts a nut rich in omega-3s on the accumulation of polyubiquitinated proteins in the brain. This substance is the hallmark of many age-related neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s, and it accumulates in our brains as we age.
In this study, researchers used 45 male rats, aged 19 months, and divided them equally into three diet groups. control, 6 percent walnut and 9 percent walnut.
So I stopped eating walnuts. I was convinced though, it had nothing to do with walnuts. So one day I managed to sneak a few walnuts out of the kitchen. Nothing happened. I didn't again- same result. Today, I eat walnuts freely, and have no attacks. It's NOT a food allergy.
My doctor has been trying to make an appointment for me to have an upper GI. She suspects acid reflux. I disagree.
Hello all. I'm looking for a little insight. To begin with, I am 23 years old and in pretty good health, if I do say so myself. I have never been allergic to anything in my life, with the exception of Prozac (which gave me hives on my elbows/knees).
I recently started this medication (100 mcg). I take it about 6:00 each morning and wait about an hour before having anything else. I have 3 questions:
1. Directions say to take with 8 oz water. I did not notice these instructions at first, so I have not had quite that much water every time. How critical is that?
2. Directions regarding calcium and other supplements is very confusing.
He was helping cook a cake when he used his hands to put chopped (pre-packaged) walnuts into the cake batter. Since they were chopped there was a lot of walnut powder in the package, as well.
In a matter of minutes he was covered in a lacey rash on his hands, forearms and face. He did not exhibit breathing problems. He was given a bath within minutes and his body cleared up. Is it possible that he is allergic to the powder of the walnut?

My lips swelled up out-of-the-blue a week ago. I'm thinking it was a sun allergy because I'd just come from a 4-day seaside vacation. And, although I was very good with sunscreen on most of my body, I feel I may have neglected my lips. I'm pretty sure it's not a food allergy as I ate very simply that day (I did have a couple walnuts but I'd been eating walnuts all weekend, and most of my life, and nothing occurred.
Your pharmacist is incorrect!!
This is from Mayo Clinic: "It is best to take this medicine on an empty stomach. Take it with a full glass of water at least 30 minutes to 1 hour before eating breakfast.
