NDT in Europe
-
Hi fellow peatlings
Does anyone know of a good source for desiccated thyroid in Europe? I came across this brand called Metavive (https://www.the-natural-choice.com/Metavive-IV-Bovine-Thyroid-Complex-80mg-90-Capsules.html)
Does anyone have experience with this brand? Or just NDT in general? Would like to know more about how to cycle/dosage
Thanks in advance

I have successfully ordered Tyromax (Idealabs liquid NDT product) to European Union. It definitely works (although some people complain about the inconsistency between batches, I can't speak to that as I've bought one bottle so far) and it allows one to start with a very low dose (7 drops equal one grain). The disadvantage is that the dropper sometimes clogs and some liquid always spills out, so you lose a bit.
In general, you won't find "true" NDT in European Union as the suppliers aren't allow to state the thyroid hormone content of their products if they are to retain the supplement status. On the old forum people have contended that these glandulars have lower hormone content in general and a lower T3/T4 ratio. It might be right for you (some people respond best to lower/no T3), it might not. To get real NDT (standardized for thyroid hormone content) you will probably have to order from the US.

@drain-gang ive used it 2 1/2 years. The problem every batch has a different amount of hormones hard to dose. And some lab test with another brand showed horrible t3:t4 ratio 1:10 IIRC.
For people with serious conditions like hashimoto, hypothyriod not good. for the average joe who just need a little thyroid boost worth a try
