Can kelp do the same thing?
Even thou I am skinny I am in my 50's and I want to take herbs or vitamins that keep my metabolism strong which ones do you recommend?

ANSWER: I don't know about garlic . Not sure it would do that.  i think garlic is very good for many things.  Yes kelp is good for thyroid  but I would take 6 capsule a day then reduce to 4 a day to make a difference.

Answer
It honestly would be best for you to google it since I don't have everything memorized and I would be typing from a book. there is a book By Bragg Called Apple cider vinegar.  it is best to find their product or a raw vinegar.  The book you can probably buy on amazon .com for a fraction of the cost. if you find a used copy.  Good luck Jayne
