Re: Armour, Calcium, Iron, & Breakfast

You don't have to wait after taking thyroid meds sublingually. As far as I know, only Erfa thyroid and maybe the thyroid meds from China can be taken sublingually. The new armour and naturethroid leave a chalky paste behind when you try to dissolve it in your mouth. I was on naturethroid for about 6 months after armour became impossible to get and I gained weight. I even took it with a digestive enzyme. Although I didn't chew it as Janie is recommending. For me Erfa is so much better. I take it some mornings while I make the coffee and feed the animals. Sometimes I take it after I have a cup of coffee, if the hubs gets up before me and takes care of the coffee and feeding the animals.

I usually eat anywhere between 30 minutes to an hour or two after my coffee and take my supplements then. Now that my daughter is in school, I usually don't eat until after I get home from taking her to school. But if time permits and I'm hungry, I'll take my erfa sublingually before or after coffee (depends if its already made) and then I'll eat and take my supplements afterwards. Time between erfa and food and supplements sometimes 15 minutes. But thats just me and my preference for coffee first thing in the am.
