  • I switched to Armour in April 2013. It was the best thing I ever did! Along with working out and eating right I have lost 22 pounds. Within a couple of weeks of taking Armour my swelling of my face and abdomen dramatically began to decrease, I had more energy and my hair stopped falling out. My regular doctor would not switch me to Armour so I had to go to an NP. My NP has put me on a soy and gluten free diet as well which has given me even more energy. Good luck to you! :)

    It's what works best for me., and I've lost almost 65 pounds since last April, most of it while I've been using MFP. I was on synthetics when I first became hypothyroid, but overall, I just felt better taking Armour.

    I am eating less than recommended calories but I feel great and my physical condition is much improved over what it was previously.
