Brief Answer:
Multiple queries
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for asking.
You can take lemon and honey with water before or after taking the thyroid tablets, for better absorption , I will advise a gap of nearly 15-20 minutes.
The dose depends upon the requirement, if you are feeling good with 25 microgram ,you can take it regularly , but do check your levels regularly to adjust the dose.
Hypothyroidism can lead to worsening of the lipid control and weight gain, although no clear relation with the Vitamin D levels.
Hashimoto disease is autoimmune thyroiditis which can present with both low and high levels.
Thanks.
Please let me know if you need more information.

Brief Answer:
Timings do not matter for most medicines
Detailed Answer:
Thyroxine needs to be taken in the morning before meals for better absorption.Otherwise the time of Vitamin D or Multivitamin do not matter.
Do not think there is advantage of taking one type of food over the other, different fruits and cereals have different advantages , can not recommend one over the other.
