Since medications are like toxins for your body, liver, then when you do a body detoxification, do the effects of the medication lessen, because the meds are being washed out of your body??? In particular, when you’re trying to get off some anti-depressent medication you’ve been taking for 5 years, and you detox at the same time, could you have worse withdrawal symptoms (if my theory is right) ?

My question again was about detoxification and there have been some great answers

Gout: What are the best online forums for Gout information?

October 1st, 2010 admin

Pritikin Recipes

Gout recommendations are complicated and sometimes contradictory, and the meds all have side effects. I am seeking the most authoritative and popular online forums and message boards, specifically devoted to gout treatemt and diet. I have found a lot of small message boards, infrequently used, but no good ones so far. I have been taking colchcine, which works (NSAID’s don’t) but I don’t like the side effects. Every time I get off it, an attack occurs. Strangely, my uric acid has dropped down from 8.4 to 6.8 with diet and med changes, but attacks haven’t stopped.

My question again was about popular diets and there have been some great answers

Will the atkins diet help you to lose weight if you have an underactive thyroid?

I recently found out my thyroid is underactive and that is why I have struggled with my weight for so long. Does anyone know if the atkins diet will work with and underactive thyroid? I am already on meds for my thyroid and it seems to be normal at times when they check it and others off a little. I have only had blood work done twice though.
