    If anyone is using Armour and having allergic reactions to it, they should check out WP Thyroid or Nature-Throid. No fillers and gluten free :smiley: not made from any animals. Here's a comparison:

    <rant>The "alternative" medical info on thyroid disorders has a ton of support from scientific evidence. To be honest, your medical doctor probably won't want to hear about natural or holistic treatments for any ailment because they went to medical school where they were taught about pharmaceuticals and not science based nutrition. Plus the AMA has lobbied Congress and has legislated medical doctors into a "protected monopoly" all the while making sure everyone knows that chiropractors, naturopaths, homeopaths, etc. (basically anyone whose not a MD) are all quacks at the back of the bus.</endrant>

    Good luck to all. Just remember, your body is capable of healing itself so give it the resources it needs to do so and address the issue holistically, not through masking the symptoms through drugs.

    You body is not capable of healing your thyroid gland. This advice is dangerous and completely irresponsible. Thyroid disorders are corrected by medicine and surgery, not diet.

    No medical professional would ever recommend this course.

    Do you have proof of your claim regarding the AMA's activity?

    Go look it up yourself! I'm done with you and the other "know it all" who think MDs are gods and their drugs and surgery are the only way to heal the body. My advice is safe and sound and there's plenty of evidence out there in books and online medical/science-based nutritional journals. I'm not going to do the leg work and present a dissertation on it in this forum. You can read, so you figure it out!

    MDs did nothing for my little girl except prescribe synthetic pills that were recalled by the FDA (twice) and did nothing for her. Then they said to stay away from carbs. Now that's what I call dangerous!

    I regret contribing to this forum. Apparently the two "know it alls" are the only ones we should be listening to. Good luck with their advice. Bye.

    You're done with objective information and logical thought process?

    If you have proof I would love to see it.

    Well my TSH is around 5.3 so it explains the fatigue symptoms as well as loss of concentration and energy.
    I am thinking of taking " Natural sources raw thyroid capsules" this is its description:
    This natural product is made without sugar, starch, preservatives, artificial colors or flavorings and contains no corn, wheat, yeast, soy or milk derivatives.

    *Whole raw tissue concentrated from bovine sources specifically processed (freeze-dried) at or below -5°C to preserve natural occurring vitamins, enzymes, nucleotides, lipoproteins and all other cellular components.

    IF anyone tried it please give me your reviews. I really don't want to go back to the synthetic one if there is an alternative.
    Oh and a friend told me she uses it and she feels much better.

    Burden of proof falls on the shoulders of the person making the assertion.As someone who was born with hypothyroidism and still has a thyroid disorder. I can actively say a dysfunction of a gland does not magically straighten itself out. There's a difference between a wound that mends itself up and a(n) organ/gland not doing its job. I've never had an issue levothyroxine and perhaps that's because my issue is a little different then yours maybe because of how the dysfunction came into existence for each of us.
