Natural medicine. Armour, WP or NP. Sometimes people may need the T4 and T3 not just T4 which is what most prescribed medications are.

I myself have been hypothyroid for years and the doctors started me out with Synthroid, but after 15 years I still had symptoms. So, I decided to go natural Armour, then in 2009 the chemical components were switched around more fillers which some people are allergic to. So, I went with WP which is only coconut oil, chicory and desicated bovine, then supplies ran out so was put on NP which also has fillers, which i am not doing to well with right now. Have been on it for years as well. Had a hysterectomy total and things are even worse hot flashes, etc. So am researching the net for answers.

Hi , I read your article and was very

impressed to learn I wasn’t the only person to realize eat less exercise more doesn’t work. My daughter was diagnosed at birth with hypothyroidism she was doing well until her menstrual cycle started now she is 15 and weights 100lbs I’ve tried every diet and have had several nutrients and have gone through three endocrinologist, I don’t know what else to do, a friend thinks maybe I should take her for psychiatric care. Is there anyone who can help me please she’s been on levothyroxine since birth. I’m desperate !

Thank you!! My husband is always sending me articles about how to lose weight. I have hypothyroidism. I’ve been diagnosed and am on NDT. He says eat less, exercise more, your not trying if it’s not working is you not the food. ?Anyways thank you this is good.

Thanks Joe – I knew most of this myself, but it’s great have an article to be able to direct all those people to, who think they know what I need to do (ie. All of the above) to lose weight. If only it were that easy…
