I took Armour for several weeks before switching to the Wilson's protocol.
I had no obvious edema before the Armour but developed obvious pitting edema
in my feet, ankles and half way up my shins after being on Armour for just a
few weeks.  It went away when I stopped Armour.  As you said, your mileage
may vary.  Does anyone understand why this may have happened to me?
Interested in the physiology of it.  Nancy
