I am currently taking levothyroxine .125 mg for hypothyroidism and trying to get back into bodybuilding. is it safe to take a bcaa supplement?

Dr. John Baker answered

Specializes in Neurology

Yes: Yyes. Just keep your TSH and ft4 checked regularly. We have bcaa in our body. Only concern would be iodinated products, or chlorinated, brominated, fluorinated.
