Re: help for Anxiety/panic Attacks
Hypothyroidism contributes to anxiety. For this reason, I would suggest you go to the Iodine forum for advice.
As with any condition, you cannot treat anxiety with one supplement. It encompasses nourishing, not only your body in every aspect, but also your mind and emotions. Healing involves Body, Mind, and Spirit.
The following suggestions will help:
Diet is very important. Eliminate all sugar, processed and junk foods. Eat as much raw foods, such as fruits and vegetables as possible. Keep in mind, that those of us with anxiety disorders are also hypoglycemic and this condition is responsible for many of our unwanted symptoms.
Colloidal Gold: This supplement works in a three-fold way. It encompasses body, mind, and spirit. http://www.utopiasilver.com is a very good source. In fact, they have a first time buyer offer where you receive one bottle free for every 8 oz bottle ordered, but you must call them to receive this offer. After that, by inserting coupon code LR001, you receive a 15% discount if it is not on sale. Colloidal gold lifts one's spirits.
L-Tryptothan
I-Theanine
Omega 3's
Trace Minerals. Make sure they are plant derived. These are also available from Utopia Silver the above coupon code will get you a 15% discount.
Bach Flower Remedies. Go through the list and pick products that relate to your particular symptoms.
Hawthorne Berry Syrup will stop a racing heart.
Look into iodine supplementation. I take SSKI and magnascent. You can get added information as to the benefits of iodine with regard to anxiety and panic conditions in the iodine forum.
During this time, make sure you do things to relax such as relaxation exercises and meditation. If you are not familiar with these, I will be happy to give you pointers. Also, the emotional freedom technique (EFT) should be of help. This works by tapping on certain acupressure points throughout the body.
My Best,
