Dear Mindy,

 

I'm very interested in this remark of yours:

 

> It [athlete's foot] mysteriously went away just a few months ago, and I hadn't

been doing anything to it specifically, though I had started taking a thyroid

supplement and I always wondered if the thyroid is connected to the immune

system. Oh, speaking of which, the thyroid *does* control the body's internal

temperature, I think, and I found a web page somewhere that said that the body's

temperature is related to the immune system. <

 

I have great problems with overheating! For the last 2 years or so, I've been

too hot all the time. I wear thin clothes in winter when others are wearing

jumpers, and summers are unbearable.

 

This is not just hot flushes (I'm 58) - I get those as well! If the body

temperature is related to the immune system, perhaps there's something very

wrong with my immune system?

 

Mindy, if you still have that website address that you mention, I'd much

appreciate it. Any other suggestions gratefully received!

Hi Jo,

 

Have you had your thyroid hormone levels checked? The body does use elevated

temp to kill viruses so there is a tie-in

between the immune system and temp. What is your waking, noon and bedtime temp?

 

Are you using anything for postmenopausal relief?

 

My wife is 55, like me and she uses soy, flax, tribulus, gingko, fish oil and

tibolone. Seems to work well.
