i agree. i have read several sources recently that talk about the damage to

the brain from untreated hypo...one source saying it caused organic brain

syndrome.

Betty,

I am no expert on MAD COW. But I do know that the MAD COW prions are

concentrated in the nervous tissue of cows (brain, spinal cord, etc).

That's why eating a steak is less dangerous.

Undertreated hypothyroid is much more likely to cause 'mad human

disease' due to the effects of lack of thryoid hormone on the brain -a

frequent and often severe problem that may cause permanent brain damage

[ i know becuase i have had to relearn to write , paint , read and do

many other tasks again this year and i still have ongiing remedial work

to get many other skills back by relearning them! ] than the miniscule

risk of catching 'mad cow disease' from bovine glandular products.

over 20 years before finding him

and there was another mad cow in Canada - they announced this week.

I checked out the nutri-med web site, and they are out of both porcine and

bovine. Wonder what is going on. Perhaps they just are saying they are out, and

not selling it right now for some reason.

>>they are out of both porcine and bovine<<

Another one bites the dust! Sounds to me like another source for natural thyroid

is just going the way of the dinosaur. SOMETHING is happening here that all

these sources are disappearing.
