Why don't drs prescribe Armour?

[Guest guest]

Do those who take Armour agree that consistency - standardization of

T3 and T4 is a problem? Is there something in the literature that

confirms this or discusses this? Does someone know?

Lots of people on these thy boards seem to have problems with the

synthetic meds but are there also some people who have problems with

Armour? I believe that only has said that she does not

tolerate Armour.

thanks so much,

She said and other doctors have said this that they are not standardizing

the T4 and T3 in the armour and you never know whaty ou are getting. My

response to that is that our bodies don't put out exactly the same every day

either. Another doctor told me that if you are allergic to corn, you

shouldn't

take armour (which I am).

Can you please tell us why she doesn't like Armour? The only reason I

heard is that it is not as consistent as the synthetic pills but

someone else told me that that is not necessarily true.

thanks so much,
