Has anyone experienced Nature Throid effectiveness issues when purchased around spring time and has it now improved?

Started nature throid earlier in the year and did very well on it. Then bought more around April and am having problems on it. Has anyone bought it more recently and found it still effective?

As I am deciding whether to purchase a new batch now, or swap to another NDT, although have 200, 1 grain tabs left. Having issues with a lot of weight gain, hair falling out and fatigue.

Also, I did read that people had been posting comments about this on RLC Labs comments page. Could anyone tell me where I could find this information. Many thanks.

Hi Jazzw, thank you for these links. They do explain what has happened to Nature throid earlier in the year with the 1 grain, which was all I managed to buy. Hope issue resolved? Not sure financially and health wise if I want to risk buying it again though?

Hi snow

It happened the same for me I was doing Ok on nature throid, but since my new batch in april this year all my symptoms have come back and I have got progressively worse month by month. I was thinking should I try another NDT but to be honest during the shortages of nature throid I was sent WP and NP NDT which I did not get on with …. so I am now going to go back on levo as I have tried NDT for nearly 2 years and to be honest I don't feel as though it was worth it IN THE LONG RUN ..for me that is we are all different.

Good Luck

Hi Christinah61, I too ran out of Nature throid in summer, so I went back on levo and although I was not great, it was not this bad. Not sure how long can put up with fatigue as it is getting worse so may also resort to levo again. Still deciding what to do.

Good luck too.

Yep its a hard decision I know I wasn't sure what to do my TSH and F levels are Ok but the symptoms tell another story so after 22 months on nature throid and really not feeling much better its emptied my purse with cost and a private endo and to be honest I think I will be far better off being back on my levo which I was on for over 45 years and my GP... I would of paid anything to feel back to some sort of 'normal' but im not so what's the use paying out when you cant rely on what's going into your NDT.....

Hi Christinah61, GP measured my TSH is summer was over 5 on levo, and felt better than after two months on Nature throid lately and getting worse. But it was a different story when I was on it at beginning of year.

So feel as though have to do something different. I am also thinking about trying thiroyd NDT as I did do very well on Nature throid before.

I was also finding cost a lot as did bank transfer to pay, etc. So bit reluctant to go to all the cost again, when it might be just as ineffective.
