Is Voyager Health V3 Dietary Supplement Safe For Weight Loss?

Yes! I am about to start using the Voyager Health V3 dietary supplement to help me lose weight. All of the reviews that I have read only indicate that it is a safe supplement and I haven t seen anything negative about it. Do you have any information that you could share about this supplement. I have one specific question; I have Hypothyroidism and I want to know how it would react with the drug that I am taking for that. Levothyroxine 200mcg.

Hello dear,

It is not advisable to take any medications or supplement for losing weight because:
1. The medications interfere with the normal metabolic rate of the body & causes a number of side effects
2. The individual tends to gain more weight after stoppage of the medication.

Before choosing any such medication, it is advisable to consult your family physician once.
Considering the fact that you have Hypothyroidism, weight gain is a common effect of this condition.
For effective weight control, equal importance should be given to both diet & exercise in addition to regular intake of Levothyroxine.

Wishing a Good Health.
Take care.
