As I wrote a few weeks ago, America is experiencing a shortage of natural prescription thyroid preparations. Being a user of natural thyroid myself, I'm personally very concerned about this issue and just can't seem to let it go.
I've been working with my staff to help solve this issue and make viable alternatives available, but that's proving to be quite a challenge. I've even enlisted the help of my friend and personal physician Dr. Stephen Langer, one of the country's leading experts on natural thyroid care. He recently flew to Fargo from his home in California to help us solve this problem.
As Dr. Langer explains in this recently recorded iHealthTube.com video, nobody is quite sure exactly why we're experiencing this shortage. Many people are speculating that the government is putting undue pressure on the producers of natural thyroid preparations, thereby causing the shortage and forcing patients to switch to synthetic drugs. It's just speculation, but it could very well be true. Regardless, people (including me) are starting to panic.
As I said, I'm working with my staff, as well as with friends and colleagues like Dr. Langer, to solve this puzzle and get this much-needed medicine back on the market. Meanwhile, I'm relying on supplements like our Swanson Condition-Specific Thyroid Essentials to help support my thyroid health. It can't replace my prescription thyroid medication, but it certainly does make a difference. I already use it regularly in conjunction with my prescription, but at times like this supplementation becomes even more important.
If you or someone you love is concerned about thyroid care, I urge you to try adding Thyroid Essentials to your regimen. And if you haven't read Dr. Langer's book Solved: The Riddle of Illness, be sure to order your copy today. It's simply the best easy-to-understand book available about natural thyroid care.
