FDA Attacks Natural Thyroid Millions Depend On

Here we go again, our suspicious FDA bureaucrats are playing scientist and THE all great guardian of public health.
This article appeared in the American Association of Health Freedom newsletter.  The report says that the FDA made an arbitrary decision to class these preparations as "unapproved drugs" with no real explaination.  As stated in this article these preparations are more complete Than the current non generic medications available.  The safety and the benefits have been seen since 1890 when they were first introduced.  Millions of people have come to depend on this source to combat the effects of hypothyroidism.

This quote shows the attempt to restrict these preparations.

  "We have learned that Time-Cap Labs, producer of a generic version of the brand name drug Armour, a natural and bioidentical thyroid replacement, has been ordered by the FDA to stop production. The FDA has decided to classify the company’s product, available for over a century, as an unapproved new drug. Since the new drug approval process is prohibitively expensive for a non-patentable substance, the FDA is in effect banning the natural product. The purpose? Presumably to protect the profits of other, inferior drugs that have been FDA approved."

Further into the article Dr. Jonathan Wright states:
   “Natural thyroid has never killed or severely harmed anyone since its first use in the 1890s, prior to the FDA itself. It is a mainstay not only in the treatment of hypothyroidism but also in ‘healthy aging’ therapy. That the FDA should even be thinking of requiring a new drug approval for a safe, 100 plus year old natural treatment is outrageous.”

The FDA is systematically forcing all of us to follow the profit making desires of the major drug companies. Thereby preventing the better therapies fr.rm even reaching our citizens for a complete and safe thyroid  support.
