Thought it might be nice to report this as I am now in possession of “before” and “after” lab results!

Before (2/2019): 10 = low

After (6/2019) 32 = normal

@LTT1 YAAAAAY!!!!! Good for you. Andrew's products are awesome! 

I too get great results from his products, either from lab tests where I have written proof or from the way I feel (effects on the body). 

Thanks for posting your results.

But what will happen when you stop taking them?

[LTT1]

That is a great question!

I will ask my derm at my next appointment!

For right now, I am having “symptoms” (autoimmune) so I will keep taking these because they have worked for me and are without additives.❤️

@LTT1 

Your derm, not sure why a dermotologist is checking your levels, they would be normally be check by an Internist or a hemotologist

[LTT1]

well a derm is diagnosing and treating my autoimmune condition...

you might want to look it up

Lichen Planopilarus

which is diagnosed through a scalp biopsy

@LTT1  Iron is easily available in food. I'm so confused by taking supplements for iron, as well as being treated by a Dermotologist for any autoimmune disease. Why isn't your PCP referring you to the Dermotologist? This doesn't sound like a true autoimmune disease treatment. How do you know you are having "symptoms"?? You have tried all kinds of stuff on the internet, as well. It sounds fishy.

@BirkiLady 

Thank you for your concern!

Please rest assured, this is the way it is diagnosed.

My Doctors have me well in hand!

ITA.

And I Googled what this condition is...auto-immune.

Low iron levels are usually associated with anemia, colitis, Crohns...

which are auto-immune issues, but Lichen Planopilaris, which is also

an auto-immune issue is treated with steroids & topical medications.

No where does it say low iron levels are a symptom.

@LTT1 

If this was me, I would make an appointment with my general physician 

to see why I have low iron levels...and maybe Lichen Planopilaris

is a side effect. 

And....a wellness post can’t be completed without mentioning the

importance of nutrition. Auto-immune is your body screaming

it has inflammation. And plant based nutrition will reduce that

inflammation naturally.
