It’s been only about 2.5 weeks- but this stuff works! I’ve tried other thyroid supplements from here for over 1 year (the most reviewed, etc) and nothing had worked like this supplement. I also got RX a glandular thyroid medicine and it didn’t work for me at all. I have a pituitary issue but my thyroid labs all come back normal, it’s sub clinical but now after this supplement I have warm hands and feet, sleep better, don’t wake up out of breath, hair loss has definitely slowed down already (I’ve lost half my hair non stop shed 2 years) and I’m excited to keep taking it! I will update my review if anything changes but it’s amazing what this is doing. Read more

I have been using this product off and on for about 12 years. Reading the reviews on here I was surprised at the folks that said that it didn't work for them. One thing to remember is that this is an herbal product and herbals work at a much slower rate then pharmaceuticals. Herbals work with the body to get to a place of healing so that you are not dependent on them forever. Prescription drugs on the other hand and pharmaceuticals try to replace the body's natural healing response causing you to be dependent for life. To really know if an herbal is working for you, you need to give it several months. Also if you feel this is not strong enough you can add another supplement called 7 keto. Thyroid activator and 7 keto taken for 3 months are the power twins for under active thyroid. Also the general rule in herbals is that you take an herbal for at least 3 months for every year that you've had the problem. So if you have had low thyroid for two years than you need to take at least 6 months of corresponding herbs to get healthy again. Also not all herbal companies are the same. Do research before you buy. This particular company nature's sunshine Is one of the highest ranking on the market.Also talk to a master herbalist if you feel like your herbs are not working fast enough. Depending on the herbal combination, most can be doubled up on in the first week just to get it into your system faster. I hope this information helps! Read more

I have managed my thyroid issues for several years with this product, 6 months ago my doctor wanted to "try" a thyroid rx, so I stopped taking this supplement for a few months and it threw off my entire body, I gained 20 lbs in a month! Now I am going back to using this product without the rx, which I know helps regulate my body temp, weight, etc. Everyone is different, but this product absolutely works for me. Read more

Before trying this product, I was having difficulty regulating my body temperature. I had tried a couple of other products, but either they take time to work (too expensive to try for 3 months) or it was dropped from ordering.I have only been taking 2 capsules at one meal (it requests 2 capsules per meal, 3 times a day) and I am no longer experiencing chills to sweats to chills, as I was prior to trying this. I will continue to use this product as I feel that it has had something to do with my body change. I don't give glowing reviews if I feel the product is not worthy of one. And, I can't be bought. I've been using this product for less than 2 weeks. Read more

There's no flavor as it's capsules. Love Nature's sunshine products and saw results quickly. My circulation in hands and feet are better and my hair isn't coming out as much. I like that it activates your thyroid whether it's low or high and evens it out. I recommended it to my mom and others! Read more

I had slightly low thyroid levels and my Dr. wanted to put me on a prescription. I decided to try this on a recommendation from a trusted homeopathic person. Don't know if it will work for you but it has worked for 3 yrs. Read more

They actually really worked for me. I definitely noticed an increase in my energy and a decrease in my moodiness which I tend to suffer from a lot when my thyroid is acting up. Especially gets worse before my period but these keep me from wanting to rip everyones head off. Read more

I'm in my early 30's and after having 4 children (3 of which in 3 years), my thyroid was getting very low. 6 months after my fourth baby was born, I noticed a ton of major problems I had been experiencing- constipation, significant hair loss, longer menstrual cycles (my cycle was 3 weeks off before it started again but changed to 5 weeks off), pudgy chin, and challenging to lose the baby weight no matter how hard I worked it off. I mentioned these major problems to the PA at my Dr.'s office and he said all of those signs point to a low thyroid. Upon testing my thyroid, it came back with the results the PA and I were expecting - that it was very low.I started taking these capsules as directed on the bottle immediately. SIDE NOTE: I had taken them briefly before but I was pregnant again shortly after. My homeopathy guy that suggested I take these for a low thyroid problem instructed me to discontinue use as it is harmful for an unborn child...I had a thyroid test again 2 months later and it has increased significantly from where it was. Now instead of getting my thyroid tested every 2 months, I can wait 6 months! Yay - as I hate needles. I don't have the constipation problems anymore, my menstrual cycle is closer to normal again, and the pudgy chin is virtually gone! Plus with exercise and a 1200 daily caloric intake I've lost 48 lbs in 4.5 months! I was working just as hard before at losing weight but didn't get but 1-2 lbs off a month if I was lucky!In another review, I read that for every year you have had the problem, you need to take these for 3 months. I have had this problem for 6 years so I am hoping that after 1.5 years I can quit taking these pills altogether as opposed to being on a thyroid medication for the rest of my life. I am also hoping that the rest of my thyroid problems - i.e. hair loss, will start to diminish as well. Read more
