HAS ANYONE TRIED THYROGOLD,NUTRIMEDS,THYROID-S
I have been reading about other natural thyroid meds. Has anyone used or tried Thyroid-S,nutrimeds, thyrogold? Thanks
I bought some PURE THYRO from a US based store, it comes from New Zealand. It says it is a Lyophilized thyroid glandular.
It says: Thyroid Tissue Lyophilized -150 mg. Take one capsule daily or up 2 daily follwing meals.
One Capsule contains 2.3 grains of Thyroid Tissue
I did see a several people talking about this, one lady said she took this Brand and The Adrenal Cortex by Nutriocology. She said they both worked very well, and she felt very good.
Anyone ever used this or heart of it?

Who are you addressing? I'm the only one of the previous posters that's still active on the forum and I don't take Thyrogold...

I will have to agree with you on your comment regarding Thyro-Gold... however, most of the other OTC products have had the hormones removed and are simply ground up tissue.
I haven't researched the benefits of bovine thyroid hormones vs porcine; it's my understanding that porcine is most like humans, though pigs produce much more T3 than humans do. That's a new avenue of research to be done.

I read this somewhere, and it explains why the FDA don't ban Thyro-Gold:
"The 1994 supplement law forcing the FDA to allow vitamins without restriction allows natural products. However if a medical claim is made for a natural product it falls out of the protection against the FDA. The Thyroid Gold product makes no medical claim and is off scot-free."

It is illegal for any thyroid supplement sold over the counter in the United States to have any measurable thyroid hormones, since thyroid hormones are available by prescription only. Whether the hormones are actually removed or not is another matter... companies selling these products could be subject to issues with the FDA...
