I gained 20 kg during the year. It turned out that I have hypothyroidism. I have been undergoing hormonal treatment for half a year. I have tried several diets, but unfortunately, without the expected results. I didn't even lose 1 kg. What to do??? Can I take any dietary supplements? Basia, Gdynia

Do you have normal thyroid hormone results? If so, you should follow a diet of 1200 kcal / day (not just try) and start physical exercise for 30 minutes / day - preferably a swimming pool, bike or exercise relieving, such as water aerobics. In the case of thyroid diseases, most weight loss products are contraindicated or ineffective.
