Re: Armour or Natural Healing?
Hello Anke,
I asked the same question as you a few weeks ago.
I was also very tempted to take Armour Thyroid and still am a bit.
I've decided to try HEALING my hypothyroidism naturally, by using herbs that have an effect on the thyroid and by generally detoxing.
Although I don't know much about curing Hypothyroidism naturally, I'm convinced that this is possible, but not easy.
I do not see clearly at all about (natural)
Iodine (like in Kelp). I've read that this may help with Hypothyroidism, but may also make it worse.- I guess one just has to try it.
I've found numerous herbs (in a rather quick search) that have an effect on thyroid funtion (I haven't researched them yet):
- Ashwaganda
- Guggul
- Goldenseal
- Pokeroot
- Mugwort
- genetian
-
Black-Walnut
- horseradish
- bayberry
- Bladderwreck
- Myrrh
- Triphala
- Licorice
You wrote that you have already tried herbs. Was that chinese herbs?
Again, I believe that it's possible to cure Hypothyroidism, but it is not easy. One probably has to be very patient and find out which herbs really work.
I hope you and I - with Uny's help - will be succesful.
Blessings,
Solmare
