I worked grave yard for years, then I would come home and mother my daughters tell my husband got home. I slept for 5 1/2 hours split for four years. In 2005 my doctor found a lump in my throat. The Thyroid Specialist did a biopsy, during those two week, I did some experimenting on my own. When my appointment came to find out what was wrong, before she said anything, I let here know my findings. She poo pooed my finding, saying that stimulant's and vitamins did nothing to effect the thyroid. So then she told me that she was going to put me on Thyroid Medication, but ultimately was going to remove my thyroid. I then immediately stood off the examining table, walked over and shook her hand and said, "Thank you, but I will fix it myself!!" I got off of the grave year shift two years later, lowered my sugars even more then had been for years and felt amazing. Then in 2011 I went Gluten Free, 2012 Plant based and in 2019 started drinking Distilled water.
If you give your body the tools it needs it will heal itself. I am 52 1/2 and I have no health issues... GOD BLESS!!
Same thing with me! I was diagnosed with overactive thyroid and they wanted to nuke my thyroid with radioactive iodine! I said no way and I found a natural practitioner! That was about 14 years ago! Everyone needs to get off those scripts! Especially now! All of the meds come from China! And dont take me wrong, I have studied and I appreciate Chinese medicine! We could all learn a lot! But it's their government and bureaucracy I wouldn't trust....and just like with our own fda and governments! Dont trust any of it and wean away from all medications! Food and plants are medicine! For about a year after the diagnosis, my NP saw me in his office to do laser therapy, put me on iodoral and changed my diet! That was back when I was turning 40. I'll soon be 54 now. No meds whatsoever!
@@reyannawynters1800 Well done and thank you for sharing!! Awesome!!
30 years ago I did have surgery to remove a hen egg sized goiter from my left parathyroid. My endocrinologist put me on Synthroid which I took for years and felt lousy. Then my Mama became terminally ill, I let my Rx run out, and found I felt better than I had in years! My family physician refused to refill my prescription after normal bloodwork but my endo insisted I must take meds so I went back on the Synthroid. Fast forward a few years and my endo dr. retired. A new, young doctor took his place and basically told me that Synthroid would not prevent another goiter nor help me. He basically said my old doctor, however nice he was, was using archaic practices that had not been substantiated by medical research. After several months of bloodwork, conclusion is my thyroid functions very well without any meds. Stomach issues prevailed so I went gluten free a year ago this month and I'm such a happy camper!
@@johnniekuykendall2696 I am sorry you had to go through all that, but look where you ended up? I am so very happy you didn't give up on you, and that God placed a smarter Doctor in your hands. God Bless you and keep researching proper health and detoxing all those years of med's out of your system. There is still so much work to be done, and you can feel even better! 8)
God bless you!
I have over 14 years without Thyroid medication and honestly I feel good. I put my faith and trust in Jesus as my healer. Eating healthy its important.
I truly don’t know its been a while years I don’t check myself but one thing I can say is I don’t feel sick. When I first got diagnosed and took the medication I was more tired and felt sick and I stopped taking it, someone that has the gift of healing prayed and thats it. I guess my faith and trust in God was enough.
This is brilliant news well done
Praying that same miracle for myself
Pray for svetla for thyroid healing. In the last days I will not take any mark to buy anything. I trust God . Please pray for my healing.
@@rachelb8863 thank you so much. Yah bless you
Thank you Jesus! This video is an answer to my prayers! I really wanted to get off all my prescriptions. So I've been praying for healing because my new doctor did an ultrasound and showed me that my thyroid is practically dead and all scar tissue. Now I believe that God is showing me how I can heal myself. Praise the Lord! Can't wait to get started!
Foods containing “the eight essential glyconutrients” will make the transition better because they make stem cells, and stem cells fix things.
@@Gasp7000 thank you, I'll look into that.
I weaned off my thyroid meds back in mid 2020 when all this other nonsense started. I read about coconut oil helping with general health. So I just have a teaspoon in my coffee every morning and try to eat healthy & feel heaps better for it. Never been back to my doc now do lots of research and if l really wasn't well probably look at going to a naturopath
All the best take care
Glad to see that you are praising the Lord and the Messiah, for there is only one more thing important than your physical health, which is your spiritual health. 👍
Your body, every function and cell, needs appropriate thyroid hormone levels to function properly. You should be getting regular blood tests which will inform the thyroid replacement therapy, and under supervision of an endocrinologist. There is no other option. The lab tests are TSH, T3, T4. You should know this if what you're saying is true. And please don't aid and abet scammers who may cause so much harm to people. Again, blood tests will reveal thyroid hormone levels in your body. Thank God for science, human intelligence, doctors, and that for decades we can treat hypothyroidism easily.
I recently asked my doctor about using iodine, seaweed & natural things to stop taking thyroid medicine & he blew me off & said he didn’t know anything about that. Moved off topic quickly. I laughed inside & figured it’s money making for them OR he truly didn’t know how to correct it naturally! I’m so thankful for your experienced being shared! God Bless you all!
No, it’s got nothing to do with money. Legally, Drs cannot prescribe or recommend anything that isn’t sound, scientific methods or treatments. Thyroid medication is the most benign med you can be on. I’ve had family members permanently hurt or damaged by “natural” treatments.
Too much iodine can damage your thyroid. I've done iodine treatment (external) for my lymphnodes and one of the dangers is thyroid damage. There's a lot of info on it out there. I use dessicated pig thyroid hormone and it worked great. I think first you need to find out exactly why your thyroid doesn't function efficiently, because there are many reasons
Please continue to get your levels checked even if you try to get off the medication. Hair loss is a symptom and she certainly has hair loss. I worry because your thyroid affects your organs.
@@gwenstone9685 absolutely:) thanks for the advice❤️
Yes dear I’ve also been there where I got blown off by doctors.. this one time I was explaining how feel and he said ok and literally walked away all while I was still talking .. these people are not god sending…they make people more sick all for money
After being on statins for cholesterol for years, my thyroid got out of wack. My doctor suggested my thyroid may be causing my boosted 'bad cholesterol' ( so much for statins, right ?!). So I sat down - had a good long 'think'.....Maybe my body needs the cholesterol, and it's been fighting against itself for years as the statins reduce it, and my thyroid is trying to make more, to compensate ? Anyhow - the fight is over. I went off my thyroid meds months back, and my cholesterol about 2 months ago after seeing several doctor's videos saying some people need more cholesterol, and many have NO need to be on statins, to begin with. I haven't felt better in years. NO meds of any kind ( those were the only two I was on ) Just a good, home cooked diet - so I know what I'm eating ! - exercise, and Vitamin C, D3, Zinc and Magnesium daily supplements to keep my immune system in good shape. Oh, and NOT vaxxed, either....it all helps.
Nice! Thank you for sharing that testimony. I do hope people take time to read through comments like this!
@@RainCountryHomestead One of the doctor's videos I saw about 'cholesterol levels' stated that prior to about the mid 1980s, a reading of 300 was in the 'high normal range' and nothing to worry about. Then, ( the famous) 'they' decided to lower that number to 200 as being the 'new high normal range'. Well, all that meant was that suddenly millions of people had 'high cholesterol' and statins were starting to be 'recommended' and handed out like candy, to their patients, by the doctors out here. NO WONDER so many people are on statins that probably, and really, don't need to be ! But they really try to sell you on the fear of "if you go off of them.......", don't they ?
Now ? I have far more fear of the many potential and serious side effects. All the stuff they DON'T tell you when they put you on them, in the first place.
One of many, many articles /videos out here that tell the other side of the story :
" Dangers of Statin Drugs: What You Haven’t Been Told About Popular Cholesterol-Lowering Medicines "

Good for you 👍 the jabbed are disappearing fast 😢
I've started weaning myself off Armour Thyroid. I have been feeling vexed in my spirit about taking this little pill for a few months. 10 years ago I was put on 30 mg armour and I have never been able to take it every day as prescribed. If I take it every day I have hair and nail weakness. Recently my voice has started to get real hoarse. I skipped 3 days and started taking 1/2 a pill and my voice got better. I just feel like every time I take it I am poisoning myself.
@@WM-en4yl You have to do what feels right for YOU. Good luck !!
Thank you very much Heidi. I will get off my thyroid meds. With Jesus we can do all things in his name.❤
I did the same thing... weaned off all synthetic meds. I’ve had a thyroidectomy but refuse synthetic levothyroxines (adverse reactions) - fired my endo. Now on NDT and am doing well. I do follow a Ketogenic diet- mostly organic plant based, meats are pastured raised/grass fed. Natural supplements as well. I have well learned on my own that “Traditional” medicine will kill you (and I’m a nurse!)
I’ll just say that I’ve learned more on my own than I ever did in school or employment in public sector.
Thank you for this and yes, I have learned more on my own than I ever did in public school or college!
hi, can could please tell what is NDT? regards
@@agnieszkaskibicka927 desiccated thyroid, from a pig, search ndt thyroid online
I was on NDT for a while and did well on it. Now they claim they can’t get it anymore and they can’t get it into the country.
@unplugged 92 Just FYI: Armour & Naturethyroid have both changed their formulation within the last year, not as effective. I am still looking for another good source of NDT until I can get myself off it entirely.
Thanks, great info. I’ve been hypothyroid for 20 years. Found out all halogens on the periodic table are on the same vertical line with iodine. Big news, they displace / bind up your iodine. The body doesn’t need much iodine to convert T4 to the active form-T3. The displacers are Fluoride, Chlorine and Bromine. Chemical fluoride in water, dental products, chloride in tap water and swimming pools and Bromine in commercial baked goods! No wonder we have an epidemic of thyroid disorders!!!!
Yep, which is why we stopped consuming city tap water many years ago and have been relying on our own collected and filtered rain water
Don't forget fluoride in teas especially green tea and tobacco and its smoke.
I had excellent well water for my entire life and still have Hashimoto's and numerous immune disorders. You can't blame flouride for everything.
@@jebsmith323 how true. The theories on causes of autoimmune disorders I’ve uncovered can be pollution, dysbiosis, viruses, metabolic deficiencies.

15 yrs ago my partner had a brain tumor….they gave him 3 months to live. He had 1 seizure during treatment (oh by the way he is still with us and cancer free) and was put on epilepsy medication and he was placed on statins for cholesterol. They told him he would be on these medications for life. After 8 yrs in he wanted to come off those meds. He did it in conjunction with a great doctor, we weaned him off all meds. He has had no issues, his reflux issues have settled and the harm to his liver and kidneys from medication is now not an issue. Great to see this information being shared.❤️🙏
Wow I question and been questioning why I'm on thyroid medication when I had no symptoms the doctor gave me One blood test and then said I had 4 problems hypothyroidism neuropathy insulin resistance and diabetes
I question how can one blood test say I have all these
Now I have tons of diagnosis and was on 15 meds I'm down to 4 one is the levothyroxine for my supposed hypothyroidism and no one in family even generations because iv done geneology and found none either parents side so how do I have it
Your info helps

Amy Lyon, thyroid disease is not necessarily genetic. From your post, you have an autoimmune problem.
These people who state that they have discontinued thyroid replacement are causing themselves more damage to their systems.

Yeah. I wonder if there are detailed videos like this for depression. I've tried some things but they weren't enough to help before I had to go on medication
@@katwilliams2950 carnivore is really helpful, minus the eggs and dairy for me. I got on medication, t4 medication and I didn't feel well at all, but i got lean because I was zero carb.. I probably never needed to get on medication. I have now been taking t3 only medication for 2.5 years and now hoping to get off of it, the dosing is miserable and hard to get right every day.
@kat williams Some how I just stumbled on your comment even though it was four months ago. I did do a video on depression that you may find helpful: ruclips.net/video/0SHwCI5tFLc/видео.html
Good information except the part where you go by the way you feel instead of getting lab work done
There are a list of ailments attributed to me after I had scans, ultra sounds, X rays, blood tests etc. One of which was a thyroid condition, also diabetes, arthritis, lupus, obesity etc etc. We are talking many years ago, I declined any allopathics & moderated my food intake which is healthy along with minimal targeted exercises and years on, 😀 i'm still alive & in my opinion a healthy pensioner with a robust immune system despite what those pesky test results showed. No covid, not taken the jab & have no intentions of doing so. Haven't seen a doctor in years - what with Wonderful RUclips doctors & Google which educate us on natural remedies *FREE OF CHARGE* - Life is great 😉
Yeah, well done 👍 same here.
So do you people pay for Medicare supplimental insurance if you don't go to doctors? I don't go much either and try to do natural health instead for years now. Just signed up for a supplemental plan which Cost $100 a month & not happy since I'm against the system. 🤔 🙄
Well done lovely one. Your story is similar to my own - I struggled with high blood pressure but didn't want to be stuck on a medication for the rest of my life so set about lowering it myself via food improvement and learning how to manage stress levels. I'm 63 with an assortment of conditions much like yourself but now have a regular 140 over 80 so it can be done I was almost double that! Stay safe🎉

I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism and Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis after my son was born. I was on Levothyroxine for awhile, but was then switched to Armour Thyroid. I was on that about 15 years. I have been off of it for a year and a half. I have given it to God and began trusting Him and the plants He provided to heal me instead of big pharma. My thyroid has thus far been holding steady without the meds.
Have you tested to see if you still have Hashimoto’s disease?

@@naomimay82 what about the TPO antibodies? are these in control? Mine are way too high.
@@parulgoshar My TPO antibodies are also too high. They have always been too high. I am currently working at trying to reduce them. I am about to try an elimination diet that is recommended by the Root Cause author (Wentz?). It is a strange elimination diet; starts with chicken, carrots and bone broth for a few days. If it works, it will be worth it though. I would add in other foods slowly and stop them if I have symptoms. I think I will keep a good food journal while I do this.
@@naomimay82 thank you for replying and suggesting something that try. Let's hope we can work to get those TPO antibodies down ☺️

Thank you for sharing this information! Two and a half years ago I was taking, literally, handfuls of prescription drugs 4x a day for depression, anxiety, PTSD, insomnia, wake up pills, pain and thyroid meds! It was crazy! I had been taking these meds for almost 10 yrs. I was sluggish and foggy, at the time I thought it was normal...2 and a half years ago, by the grace of God, I "woke" up, to everything...I started, not even consciously, to wean myself off EVERY MEDICATION, ( except 1, needed to stay alive, literally)...within 3 months I was off them all..I couldn't believe how great and alive I felt!!! My mind was clear, memory came back, I was sleeping like a baby again, my appitite came roaring back!!

@@mnayak9348 It's insane!
Been taking thyroid medication for the better part of 20 years. Never thought about it. Because of other reasons I started a gluten free, sugar free diet and assessed my own supplement needs. I started to have heart palpitations and other things, that made me feel bad. One day I forgot my thyroid medicine and I felt amazing. Something fixed itself 🎉
Correction : 10 years. Sorry.
What supplements were you taking with going gluten free? Thank you!
Please tell me more. I started carnivore diet 8 weeks ago and soon felt like I went hyperthyroid (palpitations). I have reduced my thyroxine from 100mcg down to 25. I feel good but it has only been 6 weeks. I am scared it will go too low now. How long have you been off your meds? What did your doctor say?
@@erinbeltran1820 better question would be what I didn't take hehe. I think it is an individual thing. But try something in the region of myo inistol and research a lot. Research yourself basically. Good luck 💞💐
@@eulalia3446 thank
I have been on NP Thyroid or NatureThyroid for about 10 years. The last couple of years I noticed I began to have problems with sudden diarrhea after every meal and a lot of muscle and joint stiffness and pain. I went through many things trying to figure out what was causing it. Finally, it came to the thyroid meds. Doctor told me to take a probiotic to fix my gut and keep taking thyroid. The probiotic helped the gut issue, but the muscle and joint problems were getting worse. Then I dug around on internet. The NP Thyroid has been recalled 2 or 3 times. Many reports of women having various problems. It smells like cat pee. So I also cut back on the thyroid, 1/2 pill for a week or two, then 1/2 pill every day or two, etc. I take selinium, B complex, other vitamins and I used liquid iodine, just a drop or two rubbed on my skin of my arm or upper chest. My body soakes it up in about 2 hours. I feel much better without the thyroid meds. Muscle and Joint problems nearly gone, and Diarrhea is gone. I also use Burts Bee toothpast without flouride and deoderant without aluminum. And we have a very good water filter in our home to keep out as much gunk as we can. I think my thyroid issue was a stress related issue (it came on me when I was in law school) not just that it quit working from old age, as my doctor says! Feeling much better without the thyroid meds!
I just went off my synthroid. . I feel so much better. I'm sleeping better and my joints feel better I was having problems with my knees and now that pain is gone. I am doing almost exactly what you have said to avoid..... starches, sugars, alcohol and most of all anything with flour. I feel so much better. Thank you. Oh and I lost 36lbs. 😊

My wife takes thyroid medicine, and if she doesn't, then there's hell to pay. I'm researching everything I can to help BOTH HER AND I. This video is better than any I've seen yet.
I don't take synthetic vitamins,they can be dangerous. the iron you take from the doctor comes from a rock, it is sulphates.
@Lori Smith I've been taking colloidal minerals and vitamins for almost 40 years. It's why so many people think I'm in my 40's and why I'm married to a 40 year old woman. It's why today my wife got so angry when the pretty young 20 year old girl at the store was swooning over me. And I'm damn near 60. If we don't do the best we can to take care of our health we will suffer greatly and we will look our age. Some hereditary things are what we are constantly fighting. Like thyroid, diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease... but even if I don't have those things we fight to stay healthy. Don't give up the fight.
There was a study where patients were taken off thyroxine and it turned out 60% were fine and didn't really need it. So it seems possible that millions of people are taking thyroxine unnecessarily. The body gets accustomed to it though and the thyroid shuts down to some extent so it makes sense you would have to wean off thyroxine gradually and give the thyroid what it needs to heal itself.
@THE NEW ABNORMAL WORLD ORDER Wow. It's almost as if God Himself prompted the timing on your comment. Today's Wednesday, and Monday my wife went to an extensive, comprehensive free clinic to get her thyroid checked. They said there's no problem. Which left my wife stunned for hours. Now she doesn't know how to spin it. I've always known it's more mental illness and narcissistic rage that keeps her messed up, not thyroid. The Levothyroxine has helped somehow to keep her somewhat in control, but that's not the answer. I'm not giving up on her. Now, we need to go a different route.
@@MexicoAdventurer That's great news, that her thyroid is OK. I find mainstream medicine so disappointing and lacking. I just watched a video, about how vitamin B1 deficiency is really common and it can even cause symptoms of mental illness. Benfothiamine is a more well absorbed form. (maybe it would help her.) Sometimes when people have deficiencies diet isn't enough, they need high dose supplements. Hopefully she can find healing with health and nutrition. 🙏
I took myself off thyroid medication over 25 years ago. Am 75+ and healthy.
Did you wean off or cold turkey stop taking the med?
I stopped cold turkey. I was sicker and sicker, (had operation to remove lump/tumor and they decided I needed to take stuff, it was non-cancerous) getting sicker and sicker from the medication not anything else. So I just stopped and problem solved. Better to find natural remedies for things and they are out there if you need them. You need to find a search engine that will show the info though.
What remedies worked for you?
@@mitaa1984 no remedies. Just eat healthy. I do not take anything for my thyroid. There are probably natural supplements out there that help for thyroid health, but I never took them.
25 years with med for my thyroid . Got sick and tired of going for my tablet with many sides effects . Did like you , and felt fantastic 2 years prior l start taking MORINGA for arthritis and fibromyalgia and l think it cure everything . One year later my doc, panic when l told him what l had done , and order blood tests that come back normal , and we never talk about it since hahaha. I am 82 and feel fine . Unfortunately in Australia we have fluoride in our water that does not help it make our life complicated and poison us .
Hi could you tell me what brand of moringa you are taking, thanks ste
Yes plz let us know whether u were hypo or hyperthroide.? and how you used moringa.?
Me too. 82 coming April! Still on levothyridine or whatever it is! Been on it 35 or 40 years. Have knee problems and joints are bad. But still play a mean piano! After watching this video which is my first time to hear anything on this subject, I want to get free! I am 2 years free from diabetes meds. Since you are showing the way to get free, I am encouraged. I think I want this and can do it. Will check with my naturopathic dr. For guidance.
Well I started diminishing my amount of medication that I was on I cut my pill off a little bit by a little bit then I went to see my nutritionist and she said after looking at my lab work that I should definitely stay on the medication in fact she said I would think that a good possibility that the doctor would increase the amount of levothyroxine that you’re taking well that was quite alarming to me because I figured that she would be encouraging me to completely get off the medication. So surprised as she is in naturalist and a medical doctor as well but she wants me to stay on the meds.

I was told back in 2005 that I have a bad thyroid. I added pink salt to my diet & put it on everything! I also quit all caffeine, sugar and simple starches. It ended up that my thyroid "miraculously" got better by my 2nd visit. I never filled the thyroid rx that were proscribed on that first visit.
Hi Melissa,
Can you please elaborate more.
Did only pink salt helped to overcome thyroid? How long you took it

Over 30 years ago I was put on thyroid medication because I had a nodule on one side of my thyroid and thereby had low thyroid. I was able to remove the nodule with natural means which really upset my doctor lol. So I'm very happy to see this. First time viewer so glad that I have hope to get rid of this medicine. Thank you thank you. I pray this will work for me.
What you used for your nodule
I'm an LPN. Can you tell me how you naturally got rid of the nodule on your thyroid? I had one which made my tsh go very high and I had to have it surgically removed. I hope I never have to go through that again.
I made tea from sweet Annie. It's an herb similar to wormwood. I had one cup of tea which was delicious by the way everyday for about 3 months. Then I went to see my doctor and he wanted to do a sonogram. When I got the results of the sonogram he was very angry with me. He told me " I don't know how you got rid of it, but you will be on medicine the rest of your life!" I think he felt threatened. But it didn't take very long to get rid of the nodule and the tea was wonderful.
Several years ago I went through a time when I craved onions. I was eating them at every meal. ( peanut butter onion and salt and pepper for breakfast and lunch) At that same time I had a hair analysis done and the results showed I was low in sulfur. My herb lady pointed out that my craving was my body’s way of getting what it needed.
Have you come across Dr iyaremoses on RUclips herbal treatment, it removes my hypothyroidism completely
Years ago my neighbor told me her 5 year old son was eating dirt in her yard. Her doctor tested his blood and she found he was low on iron. He was craving something he was not getting in his diet.
One of the MANY reasons I respect, admire and follow you is BECAUSE you do your research & you have backup to prove it. I know I can trust you. Yes, of course, I do my own research. I research and study every single day. I have YET to find any false info in your videos. I'm in it to win it, and the prize is a healthy body. I thank God for you and consider you a HUGE blessing in my life. You be DABOMB!!! :-D
Love & prayers
I went off all medications 4.5 yrs ago & not to the Dr for 5 yrs now. I take supplements but I'm really appreciating all your points and suggestions. God is the Great Physician and has been guiding me in what to do. I think that He wanted me to see your video (my daughter sent it to me) and take in to account what you've said. Very good info guys. I'm 72.5 yo and would like to feel even better than I do. I will be utilizing a lot of your suggestions. Keep up the good work! Thx so much! Many blessings 🙏😊
God gave us brains and science and an abundance of medical advancements.

I am fortunate because my endocrinologist pushed me to start with natural remedies, modifications to my diet, and so on for my Hashimoto's. She gave me a list of supplements identical to your list and gave me the same recommendations for foods to eat and not to eat. I followed the diet closely, giving up gluten, sugar, soy, dairy, and alcohol. Six months later the results of my blood tests were worse than they had ever been in my life. The problem with the diet is it is not intended for vegetarians, which I am. As I can't handle Synthroid, she placed me on the pig gland version as a last resort--a sad choice for a vegetarian--while encouraging me to continue the natural remedies. I will share this video with her, and I will keep trying so I can get off this medication. Thank you!
Thank you for making this video. I am in need of some healing. Additionally, the way your husband looks at you while you explain everything is just so sweet ❤!!
Back in 1997 I had a complete thyroidectamy and the results were devastating. I was left with no thyroid and no parathyroid.. now my body doesn't make calcium and I am stuck taking calcium for the rest of my life and all that comes with it. Stones. Kidney stones.
In 2013 I became depressed and realized I was no longer living but waiting to die. So I told the Lord I wasn't going to live like this anymore and that he needed to heal me or take me home but I was no longer taking thyroid hormones again. That was when I quit and waitedto die. Death never came and I got better, my life was restored to me.I still have to take calcium but I have normal thyroid function. I don't know how but I can provide proof. We can't afford to blindly trust doctors. They are killing us. Slowly making money along the way.
Wow! That is a great testimony! By the way, are you making sure to take magnesium with your calcium? This is important to be able to better assimilate the calcium and will help to prevent kidney stones
@@RainCountryHomestead I am still taking 2000 milligrams of calcium a day with 2000 units of vitamin D that's it. I just found your video today and I am interested in anything you have for advice on what I can do to get off of pharmaceutical products all together. I am not taking magnesium on a regular basis at night I will once in a while take a power form in water before bed
I actually take eggshells that I powder up as they have both calcium and magnesium. They really help with my hot flashes too
How can you have normal thyroid function if they removed your thyroid?
@@lauranipper5084 Good question 🤔, we have a God of healing . If I showed you proof would you believe?
Wonderful information and all in one place!!! I had to find all of this out the hard way - trial and error. I was on thyroid medication for many over 20 years and took myself off of it 3 years ago. My recent blood panel showed that my numbers were, as my doctor said, PERFECT! In fact, she said that all of my numbers, weight, and blood pressure are perfect. I avoid fluoride and use no teflon. I eat mostly organic, free-range and grass-fed vegetables, meats, and dairy. I laughed at your comment about butter because I LOVE butter and feel that margarine is VERY UNHEALTHY! I use a lot of coconut oil, too. I eat a lot of seeds and consume avocado and organic olive oil daily. I buy raw sugar and raw local honey for sweeteners. My husband is a retired chef and we make everything from scratch - no processed convenience foods! I’m lucky in that I was raised this way, but anyone can do this. I never gave up alcohol but I only have one or two light beers on the weekend so that may be why it has no ill effects. I also eat ice cream, but again, in moderation.
And, yes, if you crave something that you aren’t craving through addiction - something healthy that you wouldn’t normally crave, it’s your body telling you that you need it! Thank you so much for sharing this information!
Years ago someone gave me a cassette tape titled “DEAD DOCTORS DON’T LIE “ , since then I met a retired doctor who said “you better believe it ! I now have the book ! I was talking to a nurse one day and SHE AGREED.
That is also a book, I have not read it but heard of it and sounds like a good one. I should see if I can also find it in audio format so I can listen while I work
Thank you for making this video. I decided to quit my medication too. My trust is in Jesus, He’s my healer ✝️
I have been an herbalist for 30 years and I totally agree with what they are telling you
What kind of herbs are you taking?
I want to get off levo how do I do this I have fibromyalgia mental health issues what should i do what should i take
@@katepalmer4540 hi Kate. I am responding to your request to get off of Lego. Fibromyalgia is classified as an arthritis. To totally get off all meds. You need to change your diet. Eliminate all breads. These increase your insulin levels. And also eliminate all sugar. These foods cause the kidneys to produce more uric acid. The urid acid crystal looks like a little claw. And as it travels through your body it catches on muscles and nerves and etc…….. start eating totally paleo foods. More fruits and vegetables. You can eat red meat and chicken. Pork contains parasites. There is an herbal tea that will clean your blood and kidneys and liver. This is important to do daily. The tea is three individual teas. Burdock root tea will cleanse the blood. And dandelion leaf tea will cleanse the kidneys. And milk thistle tea will cleanse the liver. If you can do all of these things and stay on them then your body will heal. It will take about 2 weeks and you will tell that it is working. Drink filtered watered but not bottled water the bottles contain added hormones that also are adding to your health
I watched this video and absolutely love it! I have had a thyroid issue for over 13 years now. I was given the radioactive iodine pill that attacked my thyroid and when the doctor wouldn't believe me that the medicine wasn't working and I just wasn't feeling well, I sought out a homeopathic doctor specializing with endocrinology. Since then, I have been switched to nature throid. Just last year the doctor discovered through my blood work, that my thyroid started working again. I had to give the Lord Praise just simply because it is his doing that my thyroid started working again because it should have never done that. I look forward to trying some of these techniques that you mention on this video. I look forward to coming off of thyroid medicine forever. Thank you again for all the content that you put forth on RUclips you not only are inspiring but you are also very knowledgeable about the topics that you choose. God bless
Wonderful testimony Brandy! Thank you!
@@RainCountryHomestead It took you 2 months to wean off hormone. Were you doing well once off of it? Or did it take some time? My TSH was 6.2. Taking it now for 6 weeks.
Many times my legs feel heavy. I had eaten a bunch of sugar which I never do. I think I shocked my system. Never been the same again. Wanting to get off medicine when I can. Changed my diet to no sugar but fruit. I am using some date sugar.
Great to know this. Ty. I've had mine killed off as well and always wondered if it could start working on it's own again. Praise the Lord yours is working again.
How did you wean off?
What did you take in place of your prescription meds ? Please
I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism and on Levothyroxine for 10 years now. I wish to ween off because I don't wish to be dependent upon till the end of time and I am not even taking it properly. It's ridiculous. I wish to live a more healthier simplistic self sufficient lifestyle.
I, like you believe that we are in end times. The only meds I take is for thyroid. I am so happy for this information. I want to be med free. I am 81 years. I am determined to get free.
@@barbarapatton2377 i am free from this med now and it is because of the ayurveda diet and FASTING method that I have cured my hypothyroidism completely.
R u still on levothroxine?
@@heavenismydomicile3280 nope. I started intermittent fasting and juicing and my thyroid levels have been good.
Wanted to add my two cents/experience to this thread for others. I have been on natural thyroid for 20 years now and before I switched I too noticed the joint pain, even with high doses of synthetic T4. I think the issues with join pain when taking the synthetic meds is that you aren't getting what your body needs. Most of us on thyroid support aren't converting to T3 and that is where the problem lays. Switching to natural gave me all the bits and pieces of thyroid that just can't be done with synthetic (T4, T3, T2, etc). So I think the pain while on meds, at least for some, stems from your body not getting what it actually needs, and in a form that's more natural and usable you get all those pieces, especially when they are all meant to work together.
So what's the name of the nature hormone, "Armour"?
My comment really different. When I was 19 years old, suddenly my thyroid grew so large, it was totally removed. Our first son was 9 months old. The doctor put me on Armour Thyroid. I am now 79 and have take a 60 mg tablet daily first thing in 🌄. Blood taken 4-6 weeks and always been ok. We were transferred with my husband job often. Every new dr. Suggested a synthetic drug. I usually tried it. Even had one dr run a test because he thought I had some thyroid left. Result. None found. I had 4 sons. Still feel great at 79. Weight excellent and I walk, exercise still working in clay and writing a book. 46 years as a minister in jails, prisons, half way houses, now WalMart. One thing 3rd son is having his thyroid checked now. Also his 2nd child was born with no thyroid. She was put on a synthetic at birth. At 20 years of age, she seems ok. But really I have to give all Blessings to My Lord, Jesus Christ. He renews me every day. 🙏
@@eve2738 Yes I have been on Armour over 60 years. I tell my grands, that is why I can link and moo good. My Dr a do just retired and the new dr. Just said they still make armour? Except when our big pharma a few years ago. Stopped selling it. Canada supply not the same. I ended up in hospital for a few days. They suddenly started producing it again. I got right back on it and in a few weeks back to normal. I feel for everyone with thyroid problems. My dad was a farmer. He used to have fields sprayed with a defollate that killed weeds. He died in his late 60's of cancer. I always felt it was from insecticide. He is in heaven. Mom was 96 when she died. Just old age. Blessings
@@eve2738 The brand Nature Thyroid, or having it compounded is what has worked best for me. My body doesn't tolerate Armour or NP.
@@Christina_Lane thank you so much.
Thank God I saw this BEFORE I became dependent on thyroid meds! I went thru some withdrawal, but "weaned" myself off before I became totally dependent on Levothroyxine. I am active in my tree farm, and a girlfriend thought she was "helping" me by ratting me out to my Dr. You work hard each day - you get tired, eh? I may be 66 years old, but my thyroid is borderline through age, not hypothyroidism. I did notice many side effects, especially "restless leg syndrome" which just about drove me crazy because I was not getting much sleep, I had a temper starting which I never had before. My Dr. thought I was an ill mannered patient after that stuff got into my body, but I have returned to my normal self now. Some doctors think they are God, so I will always look up the drug before I get them filled at the pharmacy. Then I will decide for myself whether I take the drug - or not. Thanks!
Hello, I know this video is 3 years old but I would like to first thank you for making this video. I suffer from Hypo Thyroid and every year I say to myself I really want to find a natural way of controlling my thyroid and get off the medication and never knew how to begin and this video has been very helpful.
Thank you
Great to see folks like you that don't trust big pharma either. My husband and I have been married for 16 years and never had health insurance although when we had our three kids we were on metacaid. But we don't take pharmaceutical drugs, going to the doctor isn't an option for us. We just rely on God and Psalm 91 to keep us safe and using natural remedies. For instance my husband has gotten gout pretty bad for years and we discovered black cherry juice is great to alleviate symptoms of gout so he drinks that whenever he has flare ups or whatever. We try to eat as healthy as we can, we garden and raise chickens for eggs and we are well stocked with essential oils and natural remedies. God bless you all ❤️
I changed my ways, got rid of the traditional doctor and eliminated seven prescriptions meds in two months. Been off everything except for thyroid for two plus years. I have hashimotos and supposedly need a compound thyroid med. still working on changing my diet to get off of this one too. Love you guys. Keep doing what you do.
How are you doing now?
@Marlette England Did you manage to get off and how did you do it? I am on a T4/T3 combo as well and am thinking of coming off.
@@marlettaengland1513 Glad to hear that! Was put on thyroid medication at the end of a weight loss phase where i lost 68 pounds over 2 years and got VERY lean which had reduced my thyroid hormones alot and my doctor took blood test on me at my lowest weight and told me i needed medication. And i just stupidly followed instructions not knowing any better.
Hopefully i can get off it too and feel better again :-)
How are you doing since you posted this comment?
@@heavenismydomicile3280 great and still off the meds and kept the weight off, too
Heidi is my go-to for all herbal remedies, prepping, preserving, etc. She's the best!
My doctor got offended when I told him I am going to be weaning off thyroid pills prescribed for Hashimoto hypothyroid. He will continue to monitor my TSH, T4 and T3. I especially appreciate how you addressed the timeline for reducing the dosage, as I couldn't find information anywhere on how to do that. Hubby loaned me his pill cutter 👍❤️
Of course the dr got offended,less $ in his pocket
@@heavenismydomicile3280 I doubt my little prescription will hurt him much. I think it was more like I offended the dignity of his title and hefty. education
@@minkademko2335 oh ok
How did it go.? I have hashmitos and really want to quit the medicine..
Thank you for this awesome info! I've been on levothyroxine for 22 years. Always wondered if it was really necessary. Now I have some work to do in healing my body to get off the meds. I quit alcohol and coffee over the past few months. Now on to incorporating more healthy foods and doing more research.
Did you do it? I’ve been on 100mg for 20 years... want to make a start. When I’ve tried before (and felt better) my doctor has gaslit me into going back on it.
@@moominpapa3223 this is exactly what happen to me as well. I went off it and my doctor convinced me on it again. Now I am starting again to get off the meds. I have taken 100 microgram for the last few years and before it I think 50microgram for another few years ( sum of 12years) of poisons of this meds. What I am doing is eating better food. Organic and whole as much as possible and take off the pill a little by little so yesterday started to take 85 instead of 100 a day.
@@ofirshorshy8281 hi are you still on a lower dose? How's it going? I'm on .88 and thinking of weaning off.
@@SkyeeBlue3 no, it did not last, I got sick after few weeks and I had no idea why, until today it is a mistery, and I am actually take now more than before the medicine ( mostly because I lost hope) for the meanwhile, I cannot afford the diet nassaery for healthy life at the moment, and lost money on false herbalist to my opinion that made my situation a bit worse.
After I took a bit less uthyrox per day, I found that I have constipation problem (probably from uthyrox ), my TSH went after 2 months to 17 (which is like a lot as the max. normals is 5\6) some units I can't remember.
Only now I got my mind a bit clearer and my body a bit more in balance with a little too much meds, my values are now on the min. value. something arount 0.56, when the minimum is 0.5.
I mainly lost hope because of this experiment in non safe enviroment made the travel a nightmare and it is still a nightmare long after the "change".
I would say my mistake was to not have a good safe enviroment.😒🤨🤐🤔
@@SkyeeBlue3 And how can I know without analitic scale what is 100 microgram and what is 85 microgram 🤔
After working a bit in a lab I wonder how could I know...
I am looking only to get my life back for a while so I could work and make money to find a better healer to help me.
Heidi, I just started a diet called the thyroid reset diet. The dr says iodine , the over abundance, has caused thyroid problems. I have begun the diet and will let you know how it goes, but for now , the 1st stage, no iodine, so I am avoiding eggs, dairy and sea salt and anything with sea salt. I have changed salt to celtic gray salt which is fine. 2nd part you can add things back in small amounts. What complicates my eating is my sugar is high. Never a junk food person, but realizing the garbage in my so called healthy foods. Having to learn all over. But making you own everything, is key like you said.
Update please?
Update plzzz

After many changes to my diet that include most of those I've seen you post, and going low carb, higher fat and losing weight, my symptoms of hashimotos became those of being overmedicated. Not sleeping, agitated, trembly, heat intolerant. I'm now on my second reduction of synthroid and had no reportable antibodies last testing. Wish me luck on my next labs!
Oh, that's great!!! :) How high a dose are you on?
How were those labs?
I don't get why anyone would ask what a person's dosage is when a patient's dose is based off the particular patient and, as a stand alone question, has no bearing to others.
So funny "be arm candy again" Mr. Rain kept smiling after your comment. God bless!
Haha! :D
I am a long time viewer and am viewing this on the fourth July weekend in 2024. I was just diagnosed with hypothyroid/Hashimoto disease. I have suspected Lyme disease or co-infections. My lyme came back negative and my dr. Brushed off my request for more tests. The doctor spent 15 minutes with me and prescribed testosterone implants and said that my symptoms were also menopause, which I went through ten years ago. I prefer a natural food and medicinal herb approach if possible. I am cutting out carbs, sugar, gluten and going autoimmune Paleo and already feel better. I’ve been eating organic and wild edibles for many years. I’m here to learn and in solidarity with Heidi and Mr. Rain’s community and fellowship. Peace and Blessings!
Wow!! I've just discovered your channel. I've been looking up thyroid remedies for a few days and now it's taken over my feed. I'm so glad to hear your talk. I sometimes feel like the only person I know who doesn't use Big Pharma. I kicked all drugs this year and was not taking thyroid medicines. But I have all the symptoms and need to work on my thyroid. Thank you thank you thank you. I have a distance to go to get where you are but I'm more hopeful now that I've found your channel.
Wow thanks for this video!! I’ve been on Synthroid for (40) years!! I’m now 61. My joints always ache. I’m always cold, even in warm months here in New England. I was walking 5-6 miles a day until my hips couldn’t handle the pain anymore and I stopped. I’ve always exercised or went to the gym but ALWAYS felt exhausted after a workout. My cholesterol is on the higher side, but triglycerides are low. My weight is fairly good, 5’4” 134 lbs. My doctor has been trying to get me on a statin for years, but I refuse. My chiropractor advised me to NEVER take a statin, and said we need our cholesterol. I first followed the blood type diet, (I’m A+) and cut out beef and pork for a while. I felt okay but still had joint aches and fatigue. Fast forward, I started Keto in September 2022, I cut out all sugar, including honey, which I’m still on the fence about, and all breads, pastas, flours, and rice. I eat certain vegetables and only berry fruits. My body did however have to make some big adjustments. I suggest if you want to try Keto, do it slowly, I went at it all at once and lost a lot of hair and suffered from Keto flu and some pretty heavy brain fog…😩I eat OMAD, (one meal a day) and do intermittent fasting. I have to say that my joint pain is 95% gone. My gut feels soooo much better. I’m careful about my food choices if we eat out. The more we learn about our food chain, the more we opt out of dining out. The hardest thing for me to eliminate were the grains. I eat only grass fed beef, chicken, pork, not a huge fish lover, pasture raised organic eggs, avocado, organic olive oil, and grass fed goats cheese and butter. I eat organic green leafy vegetables, certain nuts, Brazil nuts and pecans, and pumpkin seeds. I do however love my coffee, with MCT oil and heavy cream. I’m considering modifying the Keto diet, I’ve been told long term is not good…really not sure why, but I know I won’t go back to the grains and sugars. I did take myself off Synthroid sometime last year, but didn’t have a weaning schedule and started to feel extremely fatigued. I went for bloodwork and my TSH was off the charts and my cholesterol was even higher!! My endocrinologist called me and asked what I was doing and told him I had stopped the Synthroid. He said absolutely not, you need to get back on it immediately, and I did…🤷🏻♀️. I’m going to make another attempt at this with the help of an Integrative or Natural Path physician. Hopefully I can get off of the Synthroid for good. 🙏🏻🙏🏻
I can definitely understand your Endo's concern. I've been hypothyroid for 25 yrs, confirmed for 20 yrs. I would go years (longest was 7) without taking my meds and never really noticed a difference. By 2020, I was taking my meds regularly and was able to get an additional 3 months during 2020 without an appt. In early 2021, I ran out of my meds and opted not to schedule an appointment to get a refill. In August of that year, I had tightness & swelling in my hands, swelling and redness around my eyes, and my speech slowed down. The first symptoms, unbeknownst to me, had started months earlier with mouth fatigue and dryness when I would read to my son, waking with an extremely dry mouth, and even walking was exhausting. That made shopping, cub scout hikes & camping extremely difficult. After Scouting events it would take 2 days to recover. So in August, due to the swelling, I ended up taking myself to the ER and spending a ridiculous amount of money to be told all that was off was a high TSH and low Free T4. The meds definitely make a difference for me. Again, I procrastinated scheduling an appointment and went the past 3 weeks without my Levothyroxine. I already started noticing the early signs with my mouth being tired and dry when I read, and I can feel my thyroid is swollen. Luckily, I started back on my meds yesterday and will not be allowing a lapse again in the future. I'm not sure I can ever be off of them, as I never want to experience the extreme exhaustion I felt in the summer of 2021. One thing that changed from those earlier years to 2021 was having my gall bladder out, which I researched last year and discovered that the gall bladder is necessary for processing the vitamins that your thyroid needs to function. 🥴 My whole body changed after that. I do need to work on a healthier diet, which I've done in the past. Good luck to you in your own journey! 🤗

I was on a high dose of Synthroid.
Ate keto for a few years and recently switched to carnivore.
I'd seen loads of people in these way of eating groups saying that they no longer needed their thyroid pills.
However I didn't really expect it to work for ME.
It did.
Had bw done a week or two ago and I no longer need Synthroid or anything else.
Woohoo 🙌
I've also sporadically taken all of the supplements you mentioned except for iodine.
I live on the ocean so we get iodine through the air we breathe here.
I have also heard that people that go the whole food plant based WOE also heal their thyroids.
@@travelinggirl6681 lol no
I would question whether you get sufficient iodine through the air. I loved by the ocean for several years and nothing changed until I added in the iodine. Wasn’t a big seafood eater though.
Do you find just eating meat all day every day hard? I hear it can be miraculous for some people but I feel I would miss fresh fruit and veg.....
Do you know if you had Hashimoto disease?
Love your discussions. My doctor had me on levithrodonie as sub clinic. I had 14 symptoms being on the medication even after 1 year. Nothing positive taking it. So I asked my doctor is this normal all 14 symptoms? He shot me an email saying “well if you don’t want your heart to explode.”!!!!! That made the alarm bells. I took myself off of it over 1.5 years. I weaned myself off like you suggested. Today I am a 54 year old female. I eat healthy I work out, run, bike and Zumba every other day. Ps. Heathy heart. I feel awesome! 💪🏽💪🏽
No, you cannot boil fluoride out of water like you can chlorine. This will only make a more concentrated amount of fluoride. You either need to find a different water supply or you need to get a special (and expensive) fluoride filter and write your city once a month about your concerns and your health conditions

I started taking copper to help my thyroid. It stopped my hair loss, my hair grew back( where it was thin), and the gray went away!
What brand ?
@@lifestylewithdonna Thorne copper bisglycinate 2 mg (take 2)
I was diagnosed with hashimotos when I was 11 and put on synthroid "for life". When I was around 28 I switched to lugels iodine. Meanwhile my diet straightened out went off processed foods and ate much healthier. After a few years I no longer needed to dose iodine as often. If I ate any junk food I could feel my thyroid struggle and I would take a couple drops of iodine in water and that's all I would need. My thyroid has tested normal. Today I no longer dose by mouth. If I feel some of the low iodine symptoms, I take about 10 drops of the lugels iodine onto my skin on my arms and let it absorb that way. Once every few months is all I need.
One drop a day on the wrist would be better friend.
My mom was on Levothyroxine from about age 20 to her death at 94. When I tested high for TSH and lowish for T4, I looked up Levothyroxine. Turns out one of the more common side effects of Levothyroxine is osteoporosis-which my mom had discovered she had when she shattered an ankle tripping over a door mat at age 56, and suffered from for the rest of her life.
You mention using caution about taking iron supplements. I found taking 27 mg of iron daily allowed me to drop prescription meds for restless leg syndrome! Apparently RLS is often the result of low iron levels in the brain. But being post-menopausal, I agree about not overdoing my iron supplementation, so I will only take it for a few weeks around the time I’m donating blood, or when I notice any RLS symptoms.
Awesome info guys. Doctor told me thyrotoxicosis was "in curable". I thank the Lord he taught me better and started researching the issue and look for an effective naturopath. I found a Clinical Nutritionist naturopth(ex chemist for 30 years) I was on thyroid meds for a few months while I figured this out. Naturopath tested via saliva which is non invasive diet change which was easy for me as already on the right track TV there and build up mineral deficiencies. In just a few months was feeling like I was functional again, went from brain fog, hair falling out, palpitations, tremors, muscle wastage where I couldn't pick up baby without a huge rush through body, couldn't jump cm off ground, couldn't get up without effort, multiple bowel motions per day and on and on, a mess, anxiety too as body is in high stress mode constantly which is why there is much misdiagnosis. Patience is a must, be kind to yourself it can take a while but it will happen. I am 48 now and feeling great again.
Hopefully you are doing well
You two are so in love, it's inspiring and makes me smile❤️
This is so helpful! I've also taken myself off thyroid medication after feeling awful on it and the doctor telling me it made no difference what I ate. I've went the natural way but am spending so much on supplements/vitamins while trying to eat healthy. This made me realize I need to focus more on the food and that will help save $$. Thanks for the info! Glad to know others have done it and it works! God bless you both.
Brazil nuts for selenium.. One a day. Let food be thy medicine. Hope you got it down...
@yellowdayz1800 Great tip! I am currently eating one raw brazil nut a day!
You guys think the same way I do. I'm so glad I found this channel. I used to have horrible sinus problems. If I didn't take a prescription every day, I ended up with bronchitis. I switched to organic foods, grass-fed/pastured-raised meats, and cooked at home and my allergies went away.
Now that's interesting about the allergies as I have them also. I'll have to review what I eat. My food is generally of high quality and organic but perhaps there is another need I'm missing.
Take mushroom capsules such as turkey tail, etc. To increase your immune system. I'm taking them and have had no allergies in a year. Just do your research.
Local honey works great for my seasonal allergies, even the dog!
So much thanks for this. I was already doing and eating many of the things you said in the video, I quitted the medicine like 3 weeks ago and I feel much better and even better day by day, I can say it defenitely works. Always question everything you are told, a degree is not guarantee of the truth, more over considering there are huge economic powers and incentives manipulating society, remember profit doesn't care about moral. Do your own research. Truth and healing is within you.
I'd like to add things that worked for me: sunbathing (especially with your bare feet or body on soil), earthing, exercising with high intense workout, meditating and doing some body control or relaxing sport like yoga or tai chi. Also being with a positive attitude, sleeping well (disconnecting al electric devices), listening to music in 432hz (theres apps that do it like 432 converter and tubemate), turning off the tv specially media.
Our bodies and spirit are powerfull, it's just there ir people who benefit from making us think we are not.
Love and peace
Are you still of the meds?
I am so glad this video popped up!!! It may be an old one ~ but so much info in the video and within the comments!!
My husband takes Synthroid and is having severe hand pain. I’m going to let him watch this video and see if he will get on board to try this. 🙏🏻
I've read, in the literature that comes with my Synthroid medication, that it causes Osteoporosis, the longer you take it. I have been taking it since I was 30 years old. I am 73 now. I would like to get off it, in a healthy way.
I'm 78 and taking thyroid supplements for about 40 years, fortunately I tested off the synthetics and got on Armour pretty quickly. I still often went thru periods of feeling like the dose was too low. I took between 75 and 180 mg over the years based on labs. I went thru the Pompa program while on 90 mg and about a year later, after adding 2 drops of 5% Lugol's iodine, just felt weird some mornings and missed taking it. I decided to split pills and have kept on at 45mg all winter, surprisingly doing better than average. BTW Also been very low carb, moving to keto and now carnivore, and taking no supplements. Just my experience so far.
Thanks for sharing your story Judy. @@judymiller5154
I was put on Armour, then after awhile the pharmacy couldn’t get it, then Naturathroid, but the same thing happened, so now I’m on NP. I was VERY suspicious about all that in such a short amount of time. Plus, I hated even having to be on medicine!
Your video has given me a new truth: you can get off of this crap.
I’ll be working on it.
Thanks!
I’m on 180 mg of armour and I love it but it’s getting harder and harder to get I would like to find something that I can get without a script so you know of anything?
What is NP?

Thank you! Some great points here and I can see a possible merge between healthy living and old practices. I think we were back here in 1970's and have returned to these and other topics. This is a reflection of a back to earth back to the farm movement and I am so appreciative and grateful!! Good change takes time but not forever!! God Bless!
Lugol's 2% iodine,
6 drops 2 to 3 x
Per week is my average use for my thyroid maintenance. One to two tea spoons of Moringa and collagen every day in a shaker with water. That's it for me.
Olive leaf extract is one I'm trying for sinus infection due to mold allergies.
You two are spot on! The history of modern medicine is scary.
There is a 💯% cure to hypothyroidism and am permanently cure,with Dr iyaremoses on RUclips remedy..
Have you come across Dr iyaremoses on RUclips herbal treatment, it removes my hypothyroidism completely.
I’m just not sure which is the best:

Blessings everyone ❤
Praise God!!! You are a blessing to all of us!! Much love ❤️
I feel that having MTHfr variant genes (making it impossible to absorb B vitamins due to methylation issues) has contributed to thyroid issues, I feel a whole lot better taking "methyl B's" since I can't absorb them from my food.
I absorb them on carnivore. I eat grass fed/finished organ meat and I absorb all the B vitamins with the MTHFR gene.
been on blood pressure and cholesterol meds, last year my legs were killing me, could hardly walk, blood work was terrible for the 1st time in my life! Researched and it only takes 12 to 18 hrs to be out of your system. First I stopped the cholesterol, took 3 months for my legs to feel better. Now 8months later my legs are well on the road to being normal again. After the difference I stopped the blood pressure meds. I have spoke with my dr about this issues before, mind you I really like my Dr. BUT! she disagreed with me. So I have not been back, I go this June...have no clue on her reaction but at this point really dont care. I feel great, Bp is good when I ck it, not to mention I have White coat syndrome even at the dentist. Love your videos Keep them up
Dr.s are taught that drugs are the only way to help an issue. They can be perfectly wonderful and well meaning but most will only trust in their schooling rather than in experience and common sense
I so needed this video. I have a medical background, a medical assistant and worked mostly in lab, yet I still am not a fan of modern medicine except for major necessities. I have been on Synthroid for years, and have battled fibromyalgia..... which just occurred to me, became an issue AFTER I started the thyroid meds. That is the one thing that has kept me tied to routine medical care, have thought about going off a couple of times, but always let the “scare tactics” get to me. Gonna start weaning off and see how it goes. Thanks for the final push to go through with it. ❤️
Hi, Jane! Did you get off the Synthroid? I hope so! And could you please tell exactly how you did it? God bless you, yeah, I let the scare tactics get to me, too, I want off it!!!
I have a friend who is Thalassemic and didn't know it until she was in her 50's. Thalassemia looks like anemia in a regular blood test, so doctors always said she was low in iron. As an adult, her doctor said she needed to take extra iron but after taking one or two tablets she felt bad and never took any more. Thank God, she did that. If she had continued to take when she wasn't anemic, she would've started rusting - literally rusting - on the inside and would have needed a complete transfusion to remove and replace that toxic blood 0.0 Scary.
Yep, it is very toxic to us Thalassemics and many doctors do not know enough about it. They should not be prescribing iron tablets to anyone until they know the actual cause of the anemia. Thalassemia is a type of anemia but caused from too much iron rather than not enough but anemia can also be caused from a lack of other nutrients. I covered much of that in this video here: ruclips.net/video/BHiZTbaIxnQ/видео.html
This is so informative. I have been on a no weat diet for over a 2 years now and I eat all that is suggested in your list. I am taking the pig thyroid medication now. I told my doctor that wouldn't take thyroid medication made in a lab. I do natural when I can, and avoid GMO food altogether. Great video for your health.
I have much to tell you but later, thank you for your wonderful help for all! LOVE for others takes many forms, if you find joy in it you will be filled! Time is short!
I've had thyroid cancer, thyroidectomy and radiation.
My doctor was the head of the Head and Neck Cancer Institute, part of The University of Arkansas. He refused to prescribe a natural thyroid hormone replacement after I didn't feel well on synthroid so I went in search of an otc solution and never went back. He just wanted to give me another pill for anxiety.
I now take desicated beef thyroid. I break it up into 2-3 times a day since our bodies don't dump it once a day.
Most vitamin supplements are made synthetic. So if you can get them from organic foods
I like stevia with a little maple syrup. Like seriously just a smidge. It really takes the bitterness from the stevia. I use that combo on my kids oatmeal or to sweeten up a chicken salad. (I grew up with a sweet chicken salad and I just have to make it a little bit sweeter than most people.)
Thank you I’ll try it because I can’t stand the taste of stevia.
For me it was a symptoms of too much stress resulting in adrenal issues and having Type O blood. Those supplements you mentioned have been of help to me. I am researching replacing them with nutrition.
I AM O POSITIVE AND THINK I HAVE ADRENAL ISSUES BUT HAVE DONE EVERYTHING TO CORRECT THEM AND NOTHING WORKS. BEEN TRYING FOR FIVE YEARS NOW. I CAN BARELY TOLERATE T3 MEDICATION.
@melissanative1799 I am also TYPE O+ with thyroid & adrenal issues. Tried T3 it was too much for me. Now only take Armour Thyroid. Research Adrenal Fatigue. Also my Functional Medicine doctor tested my Cortisol level. It was completely out of wack! I work on managing it with diet and lowering stress. Berries are very good for adrenal fatigue, no processed food, reduce sugar intake, a lot of restful sleep (dark room, and /or good eye patch), moderate exercise - I walk and lower stress. I learned a great deal by researching and discussing with my doc. I hope this helps you.
I COULDN'T TOLERATE ARMOUR AND MY CORTISOL WAS A LITTLE OUT OF WACK AND DHEA IS PRACTICALLY NON-EXISTANT. I WONDER WHY I CAN'T TOLERATE IT LIKE YOU CAN. I DO EVERYTHING THAT YOU MENTIONED AND CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHY I HAVE A THYROID ISSUE. I ALSO WAS VERY TIRED AS AN ADOLESCENT AND HAD MANY OF THE SAME SYMPTOMS.@@GG-dq6dx
It’s very important to keep a check on your actual blood work. Our friend went off his thyroid meds and ended up incoherent on the floor. He spent a number of days in the hospital then in a nursing home to finish getting balanced out.
Some may need to do that, that is fine, this video is now over four years old and we have both been off for 10 years, no blood work, no need. At the ages of 56 and 58, we are still doing great
@@RainCountryHomesteadplease can you tell me if yours was hashmitos?
Did he go cold turkey?
Thank you for your advice. I was having IBS issues and never thought I could get off levothyroxine until I watched your show. I told my GI doctor that I had cut back on my med that he admitted that IBS is a side effect of thyroid medicine. I am now off thyroid medicine and no more IBS!
O wow! And that he actually admitted it!
Awesome! I had no idea that my IBS could be a part of the problem from the meds. Actually I was doing well until Covet and needed antibiotics. But still suspicious of thyroid meds.
@@barbarapatton2377 it’s amazing the things they DON’T tell you!
@@RainCountryHomestead he’s a newbie and Big Pharma hadn’t gotten to him yet!
Any update?
Great video.
Thyrovanz thyroid supplement is made from desiccated bovine from New Zealand cows. In New Zealand it is common practice to have your cows on green pasture. The farmers don’t house cows in barns.
I have end stage hashimotos disease hypothyroidism. So my thyroid gland has been eaten by antibodies. So unfortunately I need a thyroid supplement. If I knew 40 years ago what I know now I would have only taken NTS (Natural Desiccated Thyroid) for a short time and sorted/supported my autoimmune diseases out.
Once again thank you and bless you💕🌻
I just fell upon your channel and am glad I did as I'm trying to go as natural as I can at this point in my 68 years of living. I just want to share that after being put on synthetic thyroid med at 22 yrs old, just months after giving birth to my first and only child..I was told it was because I had an under active thyroid gland with a benign nodule on one side. I was biopsy tested several times at that time as well. A different endocrinologist tested me again 15 years ago with a biopsy and all the usual blood test and told me that my thyroid gland was functioning but full of fluid (which he drained in the hospital at the time of the biopsy) and he said that I didn't need to take thyroid medication anymore. He told me to immediately stop taking it which shocked me. This was a highly rated doctor in the field who was an older dr and practicing at Stamford Hospital in Stamford, CT. Well, I was afraid to stop abruptly after being on it all those years and told him so as I had a pretty demanding job at that time and I was also a single parent of a special needs child. He was quite irritated with me for refusing. lol. I eventually did stop the thyroid med a few months later when my job ended as well as my stressful schedule. I did it cold turkey as he instructed and to my surprise I didn't have any symptoms at all. So it is okay to stop these med's cold turkey in some cases. Also, I too have Thalassemia in the minor form but do not know how it affects my health as I'm not one to run to the dr's unless it's absolutely necessary.(I don't trust dr's for several reasons) Currently, I'm trying to learn as much as I possibly can about natural wellness and whole food nutrition..and cellular nutrition. Best wishes ..and health to all and thanks for sharing the valuable information on thyroid issues and care.
Thank you. You guys make so much sense to me. I agree with everything you're saying. People have to be their own doctor. You know your body better than anyone.🤗
Also if you have thyroid disorder, you should consider cutting gluten out of the diet due to molecular mimicry. I often counsel my patients on cutting gluten. I am an MD, traditionally trained but very interested in holistic and functional medicine
Yes, I did mention gluten free for at least a time. We cut gluten for the first year or so just to make sure we were doing all we could to give our thyroids a chance to heal themselves. This video was shot in 2018 and we have now been completely off the medications for over 11 years and feeling great. Gluten free is not necessary for all but may be for some.
Friend of mine is retired veteran and works with me. He is in great health, but his wife talked him into getting blood work, well doctor wants him to start taking thyroid medicine. I happened to come across both your RUclips video. He hasn't started taking meds yet, I sent him your video to watch before he starts his medication.. I told him research herbal supplements before committing to a life time of thyroid medicine.
25+ yrs ago I was a young, exhausted, single mom with a lump on her neck. Went straight to an Ear Nose Throat doctor who said I needed the left lobe of my thyroid removed. I didn't even know what a thyroid was. Drs know best, right? 2 1/2 yrs later the other lobe needed to be removed. I am a victim of big pharma, forever needing thyroid replacement drugs. It's been a tough fight just to stay on the natural medicine and Armor changed its recipe so I had to find another. Getting drs to work with me hasn't been easy and now they make me come in twice a yr for blood work even though my prescription will never change since I no longer have the gland. I so wish I had someone who directed me the way you are. Seemed like thyroid "disease" was the medical issue of the decade and so many were having surgery or radiation to "fix" the problem. Really it was to make them, us, forever patients.😠
I just wanted to thank you for making this video and giving me the confidence to know it is possible to come off levothyroxine. I'm over 6 weeks off levothyroxine now and have healthy blood test!
That is so great and thank you so much for sharing that. It is important people see such testimonials like this!
Good to hear ,did you wean off slowly (and over what period of time ?)or did you just stop taking .?...how much mg were you on and how long had you been on thyroid meds .?Im hoping to get off mine too and find this encouraging:)
@@lozzer6644 I hadn’t been on long, they put me on 50mg to start but told me I’d need to end up on 200mg. I took 50mg for about 10 weeks before lowering the dose to 25mg for about 6 weeks, then I took 25mg every other day for about 2 weeks, every 3 days for about 2 weeks and then decided to come off them. At this point my blood test was also coming back as normal
@@teepotx thanks for that … I’m 12 years on the stuff …I had 3 years on the desiccated thyroid (pigs gland )which was much better for me but then it became unavailable (I’m in UK)…long story but I had to revert back to synthetic thyroxine….I’m gearing up to try and get off it as I feel so horrible on it 👍🏻
@@lozzer6644 good luck! I’d be interested to hear how you get on in the future

Thank you Heidi! I took a ton of notes. It was inspiring to hear all the testimonials. Even though this thyroid biopsy is still scheduled, I have more hope than I did before.

I was diagnosed with Hypothyroidism around 8 years ago. I took myself off of levothyroxizine about a year ago & started taking Raw Thyroid which is a bovine product with absolutely no pig!! I have felt better after coming off the levothyroxizine than I have in years!!
Mary Wagner.... Where do you get your raw thyroid from bovine instead of pig? I am on armour thyroid which my insurance will not cover . I have hypo thyroid and a goiter that has fallen and growing in my chest next to windpipe. Insurance will not cover removing yet till it endangers my ability to swallow or breath so the medication helps the growth. At first I took the synthetic thyroid and had bad reactions. I hate taking the pig, it smells horrible but do feel better when I take it. Hair stopped falling out and rarely fatigued. What is the name of the bovine thyroid, please.
