Thanks, Ginagirl. Reassuring to know someone else with a thyroid problem was helped by enzymes.   [End]

What connection could there be between the goiter and the bile problem or the goiter and the lipase/phosphatidylcholine, since one or both of the latter supplements has apparently impacted the goiter size by beginning to bring it down, something that the whole Iodoral regimen has not done despite bringing up the iodine level? Could it have something to do with faulty permeability of cell membranes or transport of iodine or something else into/out of cells?   [End]

Thanks for your response. I take 50mg of Iodoral in the morning with ATP co-factors and selenium, multiple vitamin, calcium, etc. Have not tried magnesium for this though I have used it in the past for stress and for constipation. It was effective for both. I have not used magnesium chloride. What I am doing now seems to be working. Just cannot figure out the connection the goiter and evacuation both improved immediately when I started the lipase and phosphatidylcholine Any ideas?   [End]

I have had an enlarging thyroid the last several years and have been on Iodoral and having it monitored with urine tests. For a couple of years I have been having clay to white color stools intermittently. At first those were rare, then gradually more frequent but would go to normal for long periods of time. I did not pay much attention and did not associate it with the goiter. Last Summer the evacuation situation became more pronounced and my goiter got bigger. I went to an endocrinologist who told me I cannot digest fat and that I should: continue Iodoral, drink goat’s milk, take ox bile ...
