A half-grain tablet 'Tru Thyroid' and a loose NDT powder.
I asked what was in the tablet and was given this prompt reply:
Tru Thyroid is our in house brand. We have produced it from local pig source here in Thailand to address the global shortage and exploding price of natural desiccated thyroid. We control the entire production chain on this product. We pick up the thyroid glands up directly from the abattoir and process them ourselves all the way to the tablet, so we can guarantee consistency, availability and price stability.
Since we are producing this as a food supplement and not a pharmaceutical product, we can eliminate many of the unnecessary excipients that are included only to meet government regulations for pharmaceuticals. We don't add any unnecessary components designed to make the tablets look beautiful, only what is needed so that they will function properly.
It is aluminum free, gluten free and lactose free. It contains no heavy metals whatsoever, and the only metals at all are considered essential minerals. The entire ingredient list is included on the packaging:
Natural Desiccated Thyroid Powder (porcine)
Microcrystalline Cellulose
Dicalcium Phosphate
Magnesium Stearate
Each tablet contains exactly 1/2 grain (32 mg) of natural desiccated thyroid powder, and 2 tablets are hormone equivalent to 1 tablet of Thyroid-S. (39 mcg T4 and 9 mcg T3).
This is the first of many tablets we have planned for this line. It is an uncoated tablet, similar to Thiroyd from Greater Pharma. We hope to be producing an enteric coated tablet later in the year as well.
