I am taking way too many supplements. The tough part is which one to eliminate. But in my defense, at age 60 I don’t have to take any precaution medications. Got off diabetic and hypertension meds with keto LCHF diet.
Totally agree
@@BriBorgersen but in my defense, I don’t have to take any prescription medication.
@@bettywhill I meant I totally agree with taking too many supplements. I do too.
should they be warned?
Make sure to get your ALT/AST levels for liver function.

Thank you for composing this list. It's great to review. Tylenol and other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are not only horrendous for the liver, but they are like small hand grenades exploding in your intestines. For anyone who wants leaky gut syndrome, these are the best measure to take!

I once heard a couple of experts talk about the benefits of alcohol, wine and even beer. They agreed that the health benefits doesn`t apply until you have reached well into your 60s and there are probably other options that would work just as well. It is just one factor among several that plays a part.
Thanks for all your videos. :)
My thyroid was overactive as a teenager, then was “normal” and now it’s underactive(from pregnancy onwards) so it’s definitely hormonal.
I had pregnancy cholistasis too, and now they say I have a “fatty liver” although I don’t drink or eat a lot of fat or oil.
I think I use too many supplements and did have a lot of medication too.
You don’t get fatty liver by eating fat or oil, you get it from eating sugary foods and simple carbohydrates and drinking sweet drinks and alcoholic beverages
Fatty liver is actually nothing to do with eating fat. So either alcohol drinking can cause fatty liver or a diet high in fructose which is in sugary drinks and fruits.
I don't think fat or oil lead to fatty liver it's alcohol and sugar and carbs....I also had cholestasis during pregnancy so is the probability of me having fatty liver high????
Can you do a video on RFA? I’m having this in a few weeks. I hear it’s an amazing solution for most nodules.
My best friend just had this done. She said it was not bad at all. Good luck.🙏🏻
Look up Dr Ralph Tufano in Sarasota Florida. He's amazing. He saved my thyroid. Not expensive either. Luckily my insurance covered it
Thanks!
What would you do if you had liver damage caused by Accutane (Isotretinoin)?
I took Accutane for 7 months to clear up my acne but now both AST and ALT are elevated. I’m trying to fix it but I’m not sure if anything I’m doing is useful.
Now a days with the majority of nutrition lacking in our food supply for various reasons, how do we get what we need with food instead of supplementing?
I had serious chronic pain that was a result of untreated Hashimoto. Everytime I told a doctor I think I have low thyroid they only ran 1 test and said I didn't have a thyroid problem.. Most doctors don't seem to know. Tylenol and other OTC meds didn't even touch it. I did powdered Kratom which also helped my Hashimoto constipation.
I don't believe it caused any harm. I did it from 2016-2022. But I never drink and do healthy keto and intermittent fasting.
I just wish that you would write this on a white board!
I wonder who you count the number of supplements? Is it the number of capsules or the number of componants in capsules?
Hey Dr. Childs, first I want to thank you for your thyroid supplements, they have made me feel so much better now. Have you already made a video of what minimal daily supplements we should be taking? I admit that I’ve been caught up in the supplement frenzy. I’ve decided to cut ties with my endocrinologist because he absolutely will not order the thyroid test that you and others suggest. I’m hoping my new GP will do it for me. Like you have stated on several of your videos, my endocrinologist won’t budge, and says that he is doing only what he was taught…end of conversation. I asked him what it would hurt, for me to have the tests you suggest to ease my mind, and he just said you don’t need them. He told me, he is a specialist, and that he knows what’s best for me. I even printed out the copies of a couple of findings that you suggested, and he refused to even look at them. I keep asking myself, why am I paying this guy $310 dollars a visit. I don’t understand why most doctors take it personal when a patient is just trying to educate themselves, and take a more important role in their healthcare. Thank you again for all your detailed information.😊
I always want to know how to care for my liver..
Wish I knew how bad tylenol was before I took it for months… glad I know now but I’m still dealing with the ramifications
*WUT ARE the Rams???*
How long will it take for my enlarged tongue to get back to normal? I was taking levothyroxine x3 years & I started NDT 3 months ago. 🤨🤔
I'm sure there's risks in overuse of supplements but there has to be a better guideline than "no more than 10". That's not an evidence based approach and it's not readily actionable advice. I think highlighting potential toxicity in specific supplements (eg ashwaganda) would be valuable and might be an interesting future topic.
Well said

Fructose which is why fruits need to stay out of the diet. I reduced my very elevated triglycerides and healed my fatty liver by avoiding fruits altogether.
Strange. Since fruits have the fiber with the sugar which is a huge difference than just having sugar alone.

Glad the liver makes life-giving cholesterol but after 52, it makes too much! My diet is good, no alcohol and activity hasn't changed. Been healthy at a good weight and low blood pressure all my life. But all of a sudden, too much cholesterol. What's up, liver??🤷

I had to take ibuprofen today :(
Yeah i use to eat and drink a ton of sugar i worked at a fast food restaurant and would drink like a gallon of Doctor Pepper a day and eat ice cream because i worked at DQ. I definitely destroyed my liver but no one told me. I thought that me taking supplements because I take a lot I’m not like overdosing. I just have a ton of supplements but I was thinking I should take half in the morning and half at night.
*Now, Try to Make (some) sense!!!*

He forgot to mention protein shakes and pre workouts.
hey can we take eggs
New guideline for Tylenol is: not to exceed 2000 mg per day.
*OnLy MorRons Ever Use TyLenoL, anyway!!!*

I wonder where the limit is for nutritional supplements, when the human body needs daily vitamins, proteins, electrolytes, etc. its demand is so high that it cannot be adequately provided with food. Because prevention is also important, not only cure. Thanks✌️👼🫶🌞
