I think you mean this one:

FG decreases T3, but it increases T4 and body weight. I use just enough FG to prevent estrogen dominance.
Maca increases body weight too. I don't know what it does to the thyroid.
About GABA, I don't know either.
Hey Isabelle,
I checked GABA and I believe it does effect thyroid..so I started taking maca again..today I took 1 PM and 1 maca about 2-3 hours from each other first PM then maca..so far doing good..stopping FG had a weird feeling last night from it or it was the chamomile and lavendar I mixed with it..I have read some taking maca with hypothyroidism it helping..I am going to keep my dose low maybe just one a day or every other day to start same for PM also PM I will stop just for a few days near ovulation date but not sure may just go by my symptoms..possibly the 2 (PM and maca) each day all month may work well..I also added more omega's and niacin along..I have read that zinc, selenium sp?, b's, mag are good for thyroid and hence will help skin, hair , nails etc.. because if your adrenals/thyroid are out of balance your hormones will be and if your hormones are out of balance that will effect your adrenals/thyroid..just my opinion from doing alot of reading..
