hi
thanks for posting in HCM
I have understand your concern

hypothyroidism is known to cause weight gain and depression
control of hypothyroidism reduces those symptoms

check TSH every 6 weeks till it comes to normal and adjust the dose of thyronine accordingly

nutrilite supplement is not going to help you to control the hypothyroidism and depression , no medical literature supporting that.

hope this helps you
any other questions please let me know
thanks
