About Armour Thyroid

Armour Thyroid is a type of hormone replacement therapy. It differs from other therapies in two important ways:

It is a natural preparation — not a synthetic compound
It provides both of the key thyroid hormones, levothyroxine (T4) and L-triiodothyronine (T3), in a 4.22:1 ratio (4.22 parts of T4 to one part of T3).

From Wikipedia:

The United States Food and Drug Administration recommends[4] 150 micrograms of Iodine per day for both men and women.

From http://www.supernutrient.com:


Dr. Abraham and Dr. Brownstein have done thorough and credible research into the methods and efficiency of Iodine loading in the body. Their research shows that 12.5 mgs of Iodine is the minimum daily requirement for full body iodine sufficiency.
