 Raw thyroid is sensational June 14, 2008
4 out of 4 found this comment useful.
I was bedridden with chronic fatigue and severe pain in my joints and muscles. My weight was rising even though my eating regimen hadn't changed to justify the weight gain.
I felt I was in a constant fog, couldn't think, and felt depressed even though I had nothing to be depressed about.
I remembered when I had surgery a decade ago, my thyroid levels had decreased and the Dr. recommended thyroid supplement. As I was doing some research about the thyroid supplements available I happened upon raw thyroid. After using raw thyroid for 3 days, I felt a noticeable difference in my body, mind, attitude and physical capability. Additionally my mental clarity is improving.
The only recommendation I have is that you take the dosage consistently otherwise you feel the symptoms returning.
I recommend this product to anyone suffering from symptoms of hypothyroidism.
 So far So good May 27, 2008

I have been on synthetic thyroid replacement for 22 years and this pill was an experiment after having read the literature on natural glandular supplementation versus synthetic T4 replacement alone. I've been feeling tired and run down this past year to the point of sitting and doing nothing, but hey I'm a post-menopausal older gal so there are lots of possibilities of why I felt tired. I took this pill with meal yesterday morning. I had had my usual dose of thyroid medication earlier that a.m.
To my great and happy surprise within an hour I began to feel "normal." Normal is something that I term feeling alert and ready to do stuff. In fact, I found myself doing stuff spontaneously without thought -- usually I think about doing things and then do nothing. Sometime later in the day I began to feel jittery so I was thinking that I had overdone the combination of the pill with my usual thyroid medication, but hey, this is wonderful news.
Today is the second day. I was still going good from the first day so I waited until that tired and rundown feeling came over me again and took the pill around noon-time. Once again I am back to "normal."
Now I have no clue as to how this is affecting my body, specifically the thyroid arena, and I hate to mess about with this without a doctor, but having been so tired this year and then finding that this product does something rare and special for me, I give it five stars. However, I think the smart thing for me is to check in with my doctor and make sure she gives her okay before taking this on a steady basis.
Five stars.
Update 12/21/07: It has been over a month and I still feel great on this product!
However, I have had to strictly reduce my intake of synthetic T4 -- with a doctor's help hopefully we will get the dosage right. I have been on T4 supplementation only for 22 years and it took a lose-months-in-tiredness funk for a year to snap me into researching T3. For the week I tried Cytomel with my T4 medication I funked-out again, so that wasn't the answer. This is -- if anyone out there has compared this product to Armour, please let me know.
Update, 1/8/08 - Still a great product, but I have cut back to 1/3 of the capsule and building up T4 synthetic hormone slowly using a two-week trial period. My multitasking ability has increased by 150% from the summer's funk and I can keep working at a high-level of competence until noon, then in afternoon even though energy quality has dropped I can still start and finish simple household errands -- what a luxury to be able to finish things!
So the T4:T3 ratio probably still needs tweaking, and I am going to try out the 98:2 percent suggestion made by Dr. Ken Blanchard in his thyroid book.
It is my opinion that anyone on long-term T4 therapy would have to work hard to get the right balance with this product and T4 supplement. I am still totally thrilled that it is on the market.
Still 5 stars.
Update, 6/13/08: Still 5 stars! However, I did switch off of it, but only because I wanted to get onto a prescription item -- Armour thyroid --that would provide me a small enough grain size to create the 98:2 ratio described in Ken Blanchard's book (see p.51).
At the first signs of spring/allergies I became listless again (after six months of success!) and went back to this Raw Thyroid product -- again perked right up! This product is more than raw thyroid tissue: It is thyroid tissue, adrenal tissue, spleen tissue, kelp and rice bran.
My new regimen is Armour thyroid, synthetic thyroid and Natural Resources Raw Adrenal, probably just for the summer allergy months. I am not 100% every single day, but I can probably get four really good days and then the rest of the week at 80%. This is VERY very good for me for the summer months. I am not on any allergy medication.
Probably the most telling thing I can say is that I have been without a couch funk since November 2007.
Five stars.
Seems to work well so far April 5, 2007

I'm going to take another test in a couple of weeks and see. Won't really know until then. Never quite sure with the OTC/herbal thyroid remedies if they actually do anything or I just am talking myself into thinking they are.
great product ! October 1, 2006

Glandular products are highly understated,IMO.This one gives me more energy, and the dose is just one per day.I plan to order other Natural Sources glandular products since I'm so impressed with this one.
