Hi MJS: I don't know anything about Veroxyl as perscribed by your Naturopath but it is more than likely yin to stimulate release of thyroxin from your thyroid gland. It may be what is known in health food jargon as a "glandular" supplement. Excess yin is the cause of a weakened thyroid -- too much sugar, caffeine, tropical fruit, excess liquid, raw foods, fats, white flour products,
fast foods, etc.
Veroxyl is probably an alternative to the commercial drug "Synthroid" used for the same purpose. You may want to invstigate using the sea product called "bladder wrack" which
works just as well and is 100% natural. The use of bladder wrack on a regular bases along with the standard macrobiotic diet would be most effective in my opinion for your problem. You may want to restrict your time on the computer and from watching TV as well.
In addition you can make a simple hot ginger compress and
apply to the thyroid area twice daily for 15 minutes (am/pm).
Getting more negative ions in your body by walking in the woods on by the sea shore will also help.
The blood type diet has nothing to do with macrobiotics. Macrobiotics uses yin/yang model that is applied to LOCAL grown foods in your ENVIRONMENT. Each environment is different so you ned to make adjustments acording to where you live and the seasonal changes. You eat what your environment tells you NOT what someone tells you to do from a book based on one of 4 blood types. Every time you move to a different environment you need to make adjustments.
In peace, Roy
