I am sorry – But as …
I am sorry – But as a thyroid patient for several years, I can ASSURE you that Synthroid and Levoxyl does not work for everyone. I suffered a great deal due to these meds and felt like a new person when I was switched to Armour. It is devastating that Armour changed their ingredients and is now no longer in production. I am back on Levoxyl (as is my family) and we are miserable….The “natural” approach definitely worked better.

Armour thyroid is …
Armour thyroid is naturaul….. if you’re a pig. Sorry nikolauhull, synthroid is not “bad”, but neither is Armour. Dr. Langer is incorrect by saying the conversion of T4 to T3 happens in the liver. In fact it occurs intracellularly after the cell has take up the prohormone. Synthroid and Levoxyl will work for any- and everyone, but only at the correct dose! Please don’t think the most commonly prescribed thyroid supplement (T4) is unsuafe or does not work because that is simply untrue.

Go to the Save …
Go to the Save Natural Thyroid site and fight to save natural thyroid. Sign our petition to keep the FDA from banning this important drug. The synthetics like Synthroid or Levoxyl do not work for many who suffer from hypothyroidism.

Armour is having …
Armour is having issues with keeping up with consumption, and anything synthetic is bad for you. I love my Armour. Synthroid is BAD, and is man made. Armour is made of dissected thyroid for a pig. There other temp solutions you can take (I have no thyroid) that are made from Nutra-Bio and made from REAL dissected thyroid hormone.
