Regarding Mexican Cynomel Post

I cannot find the Canadian article I read recently about the drug cartels now "owning" the prescription medicine production in Mexico, but this one from the US is similar. I'm not sure that any product from that country would be guaranteed to be safe now (or even the product you think is in the bottle).

I suspect the US drug cartels (i.e. Big Pharma) are extremely miffed by others poaching some of their profits. My daughter has been using Mexican Cynomel by Grossman for over 20 years and has had no problems with it including its T3 content. Jane x

We've used the same Cynomel for years with no problem. I found it when it was recommended by Ray Peat as being a good one.

Hi. I’ve been reading about Ray Peat and was wondering on your experience with his work? Has it helped your thyroid condition? I have hashi moto and am experimenting with ndt and would love to hear on your experiences , meds, supplements and diet. Thanks.

Hi MiaMam! I was using Armour for many years before I found RP but he has greatly added helpful info.

Here is a link. It's a nice format with questions and people's experience. There is a section on thyroid.

Also, more detailed on thyroid here:

And food here:

I'm using Armour. To explain, when the Armour formula changed a few years back, I used another NDT. Then that formula changed. I again tried Armour and the formula they use now works for me. Hope this formula continues to work and doesn't get changed...

apologies for too many questions today 😊 but do you dose Armour twice a day and do you take it with food? How many grains do you take although I know it’s individual. I’m still figuring things out …

It's not the last 20 years that are in question, this is apparently a new issue there, so that is why I posted the article.

Yes, I understood that. Good to be aware of that. Thanks

Things have changed a lot in Mexico on that front lately, and while thyroid meds may not yet be affected, there is a chance that they are or may soon be.

Well, my daughter's system is as good as any test so she'll soon know if there are any differences, so we'll have to wait and see, but I still think it's Big Pharma trying to panic people. They have long tentacles and are as corrupt as any Latin American drug cartel.

in reply tojaneb15

I read your reply, that your daughter has been on cynomel for 20 years that's very reassurting to hear.May I ask would you mind Private messaging me your mexican pharmacy supplier. I had Grossman cynomel many years ago.

Thank you x😊
