Hello,
Protein powder is part of the normal routine with BO. But with herbs, use no protein powder, get protein in the diet.
Soy protein will slow down the thyroid, among other things, I believe also that it can reduce iron absorption in some people. Whey protein is far better. Watch out for symptoms of slow thyroid, compensate with kelp. Take a multivitamin and/or with a potent B complex - looking for B12 to be at least 50mcg.
my 2 cents,
