Low functioning thyroid


I have been told I have low functioning thyroid. Is there something over the counter I can take?

The established treatment for hypothyroidism is taking synthetic thyroid hormone. These products have been around for a century and are very safe, as long as you take the recommended dose. Within 2 weeks you will see a major difference in weight, skin texture and hair growth. Thyroid hormone will lower your body weight and your cholesterol.

If you are not a fan of synthetic drugs, then go to a health foodstore and buy the animal thyroxine (usually pig). These supplements are not regulated by the FDA and who knows what they contain. Most come from the Orient, and by now you should know that many food products and supplements from this part of the world, have been fakes and/or contain crap.
