Many common drugs—both prescription and over-the-counter—can cause nutritional deficiencies that can add to already existing health problems.

Many people go to their medical doctor for various thyroid symptoms such as: fatigue, poor stamina, depression, feeling cold, gaining weight, dry hair and skin, hair loss, constipation, achy joints etc. Doctors will usually run blood tests to determine if you have a thyroid condition.  When the results come in, most people are told everything looks normal.  Due to a “normal” test result, the medical doctor might then recommend a prescription for an anti-depressant.
