You need to include a THYROID warning, no one taking Thyroid meds are allowed SOY or Grapefruit. I’ve been Hypo 25+ yrs and read all labels for it even a small amount will effect my med.
I have the same bad reactions to the manufactured estrogen’s as I do to Black Cohosh or Wild Yam cream, so I avoid them. May have a lot to do with the fact I’m Hypothyroid and on Synthyroid. And SOY like grapefruit is a NO food for me.
What kind of a reaction do you have to soy due to interaction with your thyroid med? Indigestion? Sniffles? Rash? I want to be on the lookout for this.
I know that some food companies recognize that some people cannot assimilate soy and offer non-soy versions of their products.
Otherwise, processed soy is a healthy food for people who can assimilate it, China pioneering soy into a healthy food.
Soy Story
Usually flu like symptoms that last a day. It can depend on how drug sensitive you are, I’m that person who reacts badly to a ton of drugs. And I take name brand Synthyroid as generic contains up to 30% less hormone according to my pharmacist of 30 yrs. My ENDO won’t prescribe the generic for that reason along with side effects it has hair loss being the chief one. I take 125 and it’s grey generic is brown.
