Nutri-Meds Porcine Thyroid and Bovine Adrenal

[Guest guest]

Hi EveryOne,

I did well with Nutrimeds Porcine Thyroid and Bovine Adrenal too for several

years. I just reordered the Bovine Adrenal to add to either Cortef or

Isocort (right now I am taking 5mg. Cortef am and 3 Isocort around 1pm) I

also take DHEA 25mg. per day. However, in the Bovine Adrenal which like

Armour is dessicated whole gland there may be things that are not in the

Cortef and Isocort. I feel the Nutrimeds Bovine Adrenal may be better than

the other Adrenal supplements I have tried at least for me.

I plan to take them all for awhile, and then stop the Cortef and then maybe

the Isocort and keep taking the Bovine Adrenal for several months. To me,

natural is preferable. Right now, it is allergy season here and I find the

Cortef helps a lot with that. If necessary, I will take both Armour Thyroid

and Nutri-meds adrenal all my life. I am concerned about the Bovine and BSE-

mad cow disease but decided to take the risk. Still would prefer my Thyroid

and Adrenal supplements from Organic Cows and Pigs!!!

I've imported a good supply of Armour Thyroid but it won't last forever. I

am considering a holistic doctor in my town just in case the supply from

importing dries up. I hate to spend the money for a doc when I'm doing just

fine on my own but will need Armour one way or the other one of these days.

It is good to remember Nutrimeds as a backup. They are not as strong as

Armour but one could always take more!!! I have heard of people taking 6-8

Nutrimeds a day, probably more or less equivalent to Armour 3-4 grains.

One way or another.............Health!!!

Peace, Love and Harmony,

Bev

Bev.. a bit of info to ease your mind with the Bovine Glandular (I also

take them, from Nutri-meds, and have for over a year now). With two years

being the recommended period of time to supplement fatigued adrenals ...

I still have a way to go.. this is some info that I got last summer..

I've posted it a couple of times.. but it's time to post again... I has

greatly eased my mind.

On July 24, 2003 the Canadian Food Inspection Agency enacted

regulatory provisions for the removal of Specified Risk materials

(SRM) from Cattle carcasses in establishments inspected under the

Meat Inspection Regulations,1990.

SRM means the skull, brain, trigeminal ganglia, eyes, tonsils,

spinal cord and dorsal root ganglia of cattle aged 30 months or

older and the distal ileum of cattle of all ages. These tissues are

designated as SRM because in Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE

aka Mad Cow) cattle. The brain, trigrminal gangia, eyes, tonsils,

spinal cord and dorsal root ganglia contain the BSE agent and may

transmit the disease. The skull is designated as well because of the

high probability of it becoming contaminated at the time of stunning

and during manipulation of the other tissues if their separate

removal was permitted.

In order to prevent certain tissues that may contain BSE infectivity

from entering the human food chain, operators of establishments will

be required to remove SRM's from the carcass and treat these

material as inedible meat products.

For the purpose of this policy, cattle are considered to be age 30

months or older when they have more than 2 of their permanent

incisor teeth erupted (ie the 1st pair of permanent incisors and at

least one tooth from the second pair of incisors)

brain, trigeminal ganglia, eyes, tonsils are removed from the skull

and the spinal cord requires removal in its entirety. In order to

ensure complete removal of the dorsal root ganglia, the vertebral

column of cattle aged 30 months or older, excluding the vertebrae of

the tail, the transverse processes of the thoracic and lumbar

vertebrae and the wings of the sacrum must be removed and disposed

of as an inedible product.

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency is working with Saskatchewan

Agriculture, Food and Rural Revitalization and Saskatchewan Health

to ensure the introduction of these provisions and the comprehensive

application of the removal of Specified Risk Material in all cattle

slaughtered in Saskatchewan.

Hi,

If I remember Toppers comparison correctly, I think she said that it

was either 1 to 1 or, give or take, approximately 1 to 1.5 NutraMed.

This would be dependent upon the person and how sensitive they are

to the slight change in the product.

Assuming Porcine thyroid tabs from Nutri-Meds.. count 1 and 1/2 tabs as a

grain. Use that as your start and if it's a bit weak after a couple of

weeks up it a bit... Sublingual is the best way to take any of the

glandulars.... It's processed the same way as Armour and the Generic I

take now.. but my last test did show it weaker... I had to increase the

tabs to get rid of the hypo symptoms that were coming back.

Even though it's weaker than the prescription grade.. it's still pretty

good stuff.. I was taking it for a full year before I was made an offer

to get generics at a better price by a friend.... Since my thyroid was

killed off by RAI.. I was reacting ONLY to the Nutri-meds and I did GOOD!

IMHO
