Thank you for all the information. Yes; I am taking R&D. My chiropractor is
a major distributor and proponent of Standard Process (as well as their new
affiliate MediHerb, from Australia), but she also offered this formula. It
is just freeze-dried bovine thyroid, from New Zealand, in 130mg doses. In a
week of taking one a day, chronic headaches vanished and stayed gone
thereafter (6 weeks or so), episodes of dizziness and faintness stopped,
and my morning temps went from 91.7 - 97.4 up to nothing lower than 97.6
for weeks now. Maybe not much, but seemingly enough to make a difference
for me. I'm thinking of experimenting with 2/day to see what else ensues.
