Brief Answer:
The best way is to try it and adapt to it.

Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXXX,

1. Natural Dessicated Thyroid pills are obtained rather easily today.
2. However, there are issues in the dosing. This is true of most supplements.
3. The onset of action is unpredictable. The duration of action is as such.
4. If you are compatible with it, there is nothing like it.
5. It is now a matter of trying it out.
6. Different people have different reponses to the same therapy. This is true.

You might kindly wish to try it. There is no long lasting harmful effect, or anything sinister about it.

I would like your opinions about this.
Regards,
Dr. Neel Kudchadkar
