I did not realize that some supplements contained thyroid hormone when not labeled that way. This is scary. I wrote a reply if they accept it, it will be in the comments section.
Here is the link:

(This article appeared in the November issue of THYROID journal)

and here is my comment if they print it.

Hi Shirley – Yes, this was a nice piece from the NYT alerting people the risks of taking so-called “thyroid support” supplements.

Not sure if the second link is correct, though – looks like it is going to a family farm! (??)

Thanks for this link, Shirley. I can enlarge the text and print it out. It is also VERY scary. People do not understand how potent thyroid hormone e is, and think it will make them “feel batter”…not knowing all the DAMAGE that it can do.

Take care,

Nancy
