armour thyroid meds is better for you contains both t3 and t4 where

synthroid only contains t4 and if you don't convert from t4 to t3

you are not getting much t3 which is the active hormone used.

digestive problems are caused by slow metabolisum (thyroid)--so yes

they are all related.

I had gerd---then thyroid and now gallstones.

reversing this with enzymes helps a great deal.

I believe in the old phrase an apple a day keeps the doctor away

there also is a story about a man who was in the hospital and the

doctor told the nurse to give him an enema. Well the nurse came

in gave him an enema forgot to check it off on the chart ,so the

next shift 30 minutes later a diffrent nurse gave him another enema,

Well the dotor came in and saw the chart again and saw that that it

was not recorded that any enema was done so he called in another

nurse to give an enema. The man now scared and tired walked over and

put a chair under the door knob to prevent anyone coming into the

room. The nurse then tried to open the door and when it would not

open she knocked on the door . the man replied who goes there

friend or enema?
