Synthroid isn't bioidentical, but Cynomel Is?

May 3, 2010

Val, in response to your post that synthroid is as bioidentical as sand, Lol,

well color me STUPID! I had no idea!

But synthetic t3 is bioidentical? I am pretty sure I have seen you say that

befoe. I know there was a brand Cytomel, but

did they not ever have a patent? I know there is a generic now. Was there no way

to make it so that it wasn't bioidentical and thus they couldn't patent it?

I once told a holistic doc that cynomel was structually identical to the t3 our

bodies make and he said he didn't believe that. Of course, he was wrong about a

lot of things...

Thanks!

By the stanmdards in use today (i.e. synthroid is bioidentical) Cytomel

and cynomel are both bioidentical, btu by MY OWN standards they are not.

And I FEEL a differnce now optimized on T3 onyl to how I felt on Amrour

when I was 19 and oiptimal on that which is closer to bioidential in my

eyes. But then I was 19 not Diabetic and not dmaged form 25 years of

syncrap. SO it is quite possible the differnce I feel are form those

things and not the way T3 is actually workign in my body. I feel ther

eare intrinsic factors in ANIMAL sourced hormones thye cannto

manufacture in a lab wiht ALL their science. I have talked to people

thta used the old Pork insulins that said they felt better than on

synthetic bioidentical insulins. I feel better by a TON on Premarin than

I do on bio estradiol , these are things NO biochemist has been able to

address to me at all. They say it si in my head, so maybe it is. LOL

Well, your head is better than most other heads I know, so I'll take your head's

opinion. :-)

Makes sense about the Premarin. I never thought of it that way at all!!
