Good Afternoon,

Thanks for the offering this forum so I can ask about thyroid conditions.

I have had a thyroid condition since 2003, I just turned 48 and though I’ve been on medication since my doctor discovered my problem, I cannot get my thyroid regulated. As a result I have gained almost 30 pounds. I feel bad most of the time and I just don’t have energy like I used.

I am currently taking 120 mg of Armor thyroid medication and wondered if there is a healthy alternative to taking pharmaceutical medications. I know that it can be dangerous to mess with this condition, but I would like to see what I can do as I fluctuate between 90 mg to 120 mg then back and forth between the two doses.

Any feedback that you can offer, good or bad, will be greatly appreciated.

I look forward to hearing from you

Enjoy your evening!

Kind regards,
Cathy Neal

Cathy,

Armour is very safe as far as I am concerned. Your TSH should fluctuate between .5 and 3.0. Any higher and the thyroid is considered low (in my book). Selenium is needed for conversion of T4 into T3 and exercise is also important. Peter D’Adamo’s book, “Eat Right for Your Type” might help and here is my food list, it may also help.

You may also want to try our Liquid Power.

Sincerely,

Marcus Ettinger DC, BSc.

Hello Dr. E,

Thank you so much for taking the time to answer me. I appreciate the food list as well! I shall do some grocery shopping and get some of the items from the list.

I have begun some exercise lately which is making me feel so much better. I will also look into the Selenium and Liquid Power.

I’m trying very hard to change my eating habits, but they are just that…habits!!! I’ve unfortunately picked up some bad ones over the past few years.

Positive thinking will help me move in the right direction.

Thanks again and enjoy your afternoon.

A grateful customer,
Cathy

Body: This is by far the best website I ever had the pleasure of dealing With. It’s my second time and I am hooked, because customer service is personable and Dr. Ettinger is a wonderful example of someone who can do business well but has intrinsic value and a concern for peoples health as opposed to the pharmaceutical giants of the world who think they can remedy any malady! Nature is the way and a lifestyle change is key. I finally found the kind of people I want to deal with for a long time to come!

Hi Dr. E

I have been using your therapy juices for some time now. I started out with the Goji Juice, then moved on to the Acai Max and Mangosteen Elixir and have recently been ordering the Absolute Goji. Great products, I feel better after using the products and have felt a definite increase in energy with the Goji juice. I appreciate the fact that you are not an MLM and that you have bulk discount prices.

Keep up the great work, looking forward to new products being introduced.

I have only used your Noni and am completely in love with it. I have been taking it for close to a year now. I usually suffer terribly with cedar fever every year about this time. One of my girlfriends was just commenting how miserable she was with her cedar fever and it all of a sudden dawned on me that I have not had ONE symptom this year. I believe it has also been a contributing factor in helping me lose a few pounds. I am not a dieter. I usually walk to help keep my weight in check but it started creeping up over the past couple of years and all of a sudden I was about 20 pounds heavier than I like to be. I am very happy to report that I have shed 13.5 of those pounds over the past few months and the Noni is the only thing I have added to my regimen.

I am thinking about using your liquid vitamins since it is probably the only way I will ever get my husband to take any (he won’t take pills). Incidentally, he takes the Noni diligently so it must be giving him benefits or I’m positive he would have given it up long ago.

Thanks for a great product!

Dear Dr. Ettinger,

It was a pleasure to talk to you personally yesterday. As I told you on the phone, my husband’s results from goji juice have been truly miraculous. Who would have thought that one of God’s natural berries that He created could do so much for a persons health and life. The goji berry did just that for my husband Wayne.

Diagnosed 9 or so years ago with Lyme’s disease and rheumatoid arthritis he could do not much of anything. First he underwent a really severe back surgery that did not seem to work at the time. Next came years of severe pain and the inability to do much of nothing. He could not even walk most of the time. He just sat in a chair and even at this point he started having severe memory problems from the Lyme’s. It affects the short term memory. So anything that was told to him he forgot almost instantly. There were years that he took between 60 and 80 pills per day. I had to lay them out for him because his memory did not let him deal with that. Our children had to watch their father’s health fail rapidly. At this stage his walking became worse since the Lyme’s disease went straight to the joints now. He had to drag his legs to try to walk places. At one point while driving he could not get his leg off the gas pedal to stop our truck and that is when we sought another opinion from a Doctor. This is when it was found out that his hips were destroyed by the arthritis caused from the Lyme’s disease. He underwent bilateral hip replacements within a year’s time. By now he was really getting disgusted with his health. His cholesterol was out of control; his blood pressure was out of control and his body was no longer producing testosterone. Along with that the medicines they had him on were causing all kinds of side effects. By January of 2004 Wayne went off all but 3 of his medicines by himself. It’s funny because he was no worse or no better. At least most of those chemicals were starting to leave his body.

October of 2005 a friend introduced us to goji juice. I bought him a bottle and he took it. He felt it did not do anything but I had seen a slight difference in his energy level. He did not take it again until January of 2006. By this time he started taking 9 ounces a day because of all the reading I was doing on goji. In the summer of 2006, Wayne went off his cholesterol medicine on his own because of side effects of joint pain. When he went to his family Doctor, she was amazed because for the 1st time in all these years his cholesterol levels were great without the pills. She said to him, Wayne short of Divine intervention I can’t figure out hat is going on with your blood. He told her about God’s little goji berry. Next He went to his Rheumatologist and he took his own blood to check Wayne’s RA counts and it showed his RA was in remission. Next step was to go to his Endocrinologist. She reported after her own blood work that his testosterone was good again. How amazing is all of this. His energy level is fabulous and he is now on his way to great health again. I would have never believed that 9 years ago he would be where he is at today and I just thank God for all of this.

Yours truly

D.G.

I am so impressed with your noni juice that I give it as a gift to my friends. My brother suffered from severe allergies and sinusitis. He was on inhalers and looked and felt like crap all the time. I started him on your noni a year ago April when his medications were no longer working due to over prescription. He is off everything now thanks to noni. It is truly a life changing drink!
