I'm updating my world liothyronine document.

Does anyone have any more information than I have been able to gather?

Or updates on what I have gathered?

Amazing and so useful. I recently managed to pick up uni-pharma T3 and T4 in Greece. The pharmacist only had one T3 box in stock and told me "there are still issues with this in Greece". Maybe I was lucky that she had the one packet.

Hello helvella! Thank you so much for your hard work. I have been taking Vitalithy (vitalithyndt.com/) ...since I moved to Spain because I have trouble sourcing T3 here. I believe it was on the old document, but I don't see it on the update. Did you find new info about this brand? I was actually wondering how potent it is, because I don't seem to get the same results as I did on NP thyroid (USA). Maybe that's a good thing, but sadly energy levels and negative effects are back. Either way, I may be looking to try a new one, I can say that vitalithy has been able to ship their product to me, and haven't had any issues receiving it - I know there's info that states that you can only get pills from pharmacy - but mine do arrive!

For now, I'll have to find a doctor willing to test my t3 and be ok with me self medicating from an outside source....probably impossible.

This document is focusing on synthetic T3.

NDT Natural Desiccated Thyroid is terms used for products which have declared thyroid hormone content & therefore require prescription.

Vitalithy is not a well known product & is sold as supplement, therefore doesn’t require prescription.

helvella - World Desiccated Thyroid document

Reference of desiccated thyroid products including information about several products not considered to be Natural Desiccated Thyroid (NDT/Desiccated Thyroid Extract DTE).

Thank you so much! I understand better now. Is there any comparison of NDT vs synthetic in terms of effectiveness, or obtainability? I have to be more open minded recently.

Not what you're looking for?
