Default I am in shock! (good shock) :)

I had pretty well resigned myself to the fact that I was going to have to go on thyroid meds.

But Dr. Atkins says a minority of people with sluggish thyroids who have a tyrosine deficiency are helped by tyrosine, so I decided to give that a shot first.

My order arrived today. I ordered acetyl l-tyrosine because it's faster acting.

I was really feeling down this morning... another rainy day and just general blahs accompanied by brain fog.

I took ONE tablet (300 mg) and within a few minutes, it was like I was a different person. The brain fog was GONE. I felt GOOD. And I have felt so energetic all afternoon... rode my bike and didn't even feel tired after it.

So now it's after dinner, and I still feel just as good!!!

I don't know how much it will affect thyroid function, but based on one capsule, one day, I am definitely giving it a shot.

I have never in my life taken anything that had such a profound effect!!!

Well ok!!! You've got me excited!!! I'm wondering if Walgreens actually carries this. Sounds like if it can raise your body temp and make you feel that good, it could make some things move!! Hmmmm...will study up on this!

SOOOO glad for you that you're feeling great! After only one dose too!! Congratulations to you for reaching out and looking for something other than a pharmaceutical!!! YAY, Sunny!!!!

Everlosing, apparently it only works this dramatically if you have a tyrosine deficiency. I would love for you to have the same results!

If your Walgreen's doesn't have it, this is where I got mine. I've dealt with Vitacost.com for years and their service and prices are superb.

Wow! Hook me up! Actually, way back when I went from too skinny to more than pleasantly plump in a few weeks, my doctor tried me on the prescription stuff and it didn't help. He said that the more he upped the drug, the more my thyroid backed off on making it for my body, so I stopped taking it.

I'm glad to hear it is working for you.
