<< Jan,
 Sorry if I'm not remembering this info, but do you take any of the usual
 thyroid medications or is this supplement the only thing you take? I was
just
 wondering about the L-Tyrosine, I thought you took that IN PLACE OF
 medication, perhaps I have some wrong information.

 Thanks,
 Cindy

Hi,

I have also wondered about the role of tyrosine supplements.  I read in Dr.
Stephen Langer's book that brewers's yeast is good for hypos.  BY does
contain tyrosine, although in smaller amounts than a typical supplement would
have.  I still don't know whether tyrosine is to be added or avoided.
