Not to pry, but WHY? After all, an assortment of horse, cow and pig thyroid glands mushed up and purified with variable bioavailabilty and therapeutic effect that usually requires more than the average number of blood tests to adjust. Or 100% pure synthesized levothyroxine which is WYSIWYG and much easier to titrate dosages. It's kind of like someone preferring digitalis leaf to lanoxin. Just my opinion.
