Is lemon good for hyperthyroidism?

Doctor 1

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

Yes. Lemon blocks the antibodies that stimulate the thyroid gland to produce thyroid hormone, hence normalizing an overactive thyroid.

I'm 18 and my height's stuck at 5.3 feet. I really want to hit 5.7 feet. I'm eating right and exercising regularly, but still not seeing any changes. Could you help me out with some advice on how to increase my height? Are there any medicines that can actually help with growing taller?

At the age of 18, the growth plates in your bones may have already fused, limiting the potential for further height growth. However, if you are still looking to explore options, you can consider taking Growth Factor Plus. It is a supplement that contains a blend of growth factors and amino acids to support bone and cartilage growth. The recommended dosage is 2 capsules daily with food. Additionally, maintaining a healthy diet rich in calcium, vitamin D, and protein, along with regular exercise, can also support overall bone health.

I've been hitting the gym consistently for the past couple of months and can definitely feel myself getting stronger. But I've been reading online and I'm worried I might have low testosterone since a lot of the symptoms match what I've been experiencing. How do I go about testing my testosterone levels? Also, is there any medication to boost testosterone that wont come with major side effects? Just so you know, I've got hypertension and I'm overweight, though I've been shedding some pounds slowlycurrently at 88 kgs and I'm 5ft 7inches.

To test your testosterone levels, consult an endocrinologist who will recommend a blood test, typically taken in the morning when testosterone levels are highest, and may also perform a physical exam and review your medical history; if diagnosed with low testosterone, treatment options may include testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) via gels, patches, or injections, but be aware that TRT may have side effects, such as acne, sleep apnea, or prostate issues; given your hypertension and weight status, lifestyle modifications, such as regular exercise, weight loss, and stress management, can also help boost testosterone levels naturally.
