I sought out a functional medical doctor for thyroid symptoms and was diagnosed with Hashimotos seven years ago. I didn't want to be on synthetic medicine or Armour Thyroid after hearing friends and family members negative experiences. For that reason I feel more confident knowing I'm using a safer option -not risk free but with less risks and side affects.
