I just looked over a brochure my doctor gave me about foods that "greatly" lessen the effectiveness of Synthroid. I have never heard of this before....any input would be appreciated as I use two of these foods daily:

Food products to be avoided while using Synthroid (Levothyroxine): soy milk, walnuts, high-fiber foods, and cotton seed meal.

So....are they saying to stay away from whole wheat breads and apples, etc... and soy milk in coffee????

I'd have to do more research on this but I have heard some similar things especially about soy.
