Can Hydroxycut Be Taken While Suffering From Diabetes And Hypothyroidism?

My step daughter is tyie 1 diabetic with hypothyroidism and recently suffered 4 months in the hospital with cerebritis (lupus attacking her brain). She is taking Hydroxycut. I KNOW that's not ok. Her carb choices are rarely complex. Her numbers are very low in the am and very high at night. 35-50
Am and 300+ night. I found Hydroxycut in her room. Please affirm my thoughts on her poor choices. Thanks Mar

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

It is not good, but if she is getting good result and this is the only way that she is able to control on her carbs, then you can provide small frequent meals of fiber, which would help to lose weight and control diabetes.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
