Guest guest Posted September 24, 2004 Report Share Posted September 24, 2004 Hi Toni. The problem in what you are asking is that there is no absolute knowledge as to how much thyroid hormone you are actually getting in each Nutri-Med dose. It's not a prescription drug, so there is no testing by the US Pharmacopia, or FDA, to ascertain that it's consistent from dose to dose, or that it contains what they might say. So....what we have found is that you have to take much more Nutri- Meds than Armour to get the same effect as Armour. Someone today did post that they felt like it took 4 tabs of Nutri-Meds to equal one grain of Armour. The bottom line is for you to dose by SYMPTOMS with Nutri-Meds. And let us know what you eventually feel about your Nutri-Meds. Your experience will help others.

Guest guest Posted September 25, 2004 Report Share Posted September 25, 2004 Many are saying that the Nutri-Meds thyroid has approximately 15 mgs of natural thyroid in each tablet.
