Re: Question for ones that do Armour sublingually

[Guest guest]

Hi Betty! I also like putting mine between the cheek and gum because

it's a little slower to dissolve there than under the tongue, so I

feel like I am getting a steadier and more spread out dose. You leave

it there until it's gone. When I'm moving about, my 2-grain takes

about 45 minutes to dissolve. Seems like my one grain is similar,

though.

The generic does appear to have fillers that Armour does not, so you

are left with the residue you mention.

There are millions of capillaries that line the inner mouth, so the

dissovling thyroid is entering your blood stream via those and going

directly to your blood, bypassing the acids of the stomach and the

processing of the liver where you will lose some of what you give

yourself. It's an ideal way to take most any meds, by the way, if you

can stand it.

Thank you Janie, I wasn't sure if it went straight into the bloodstream. Yeah

the taste takes some getting use to.

Is it as effective to put Armour between cheek and gum as under the tongue? Is

there a reason to do one or the other?

Question for ones that do Armour

sublingually

I put the Armour between my cheek and gum. How long do you leave it

there to get the full benefits?

Does it just dissolve an go into the skin? I am taking the generic and

I leave it there and it melts but there is some still remaining.

Would that be the leftover binders and fillers?

Hi Kate. " Sublingual " actually came from the practice of putting the

med under the tongue, which is above the sublingual gland, but the

entire mouth is lined with millions of those little capallaries which

can " take in " the meds, including the buccal glands which are located

in the mucous membrane which lines the cheeks, etc. The latter

produce less saliva, and that's the reason I put my Armour between the

inner cheek and gums--to slow the absorption and give my body a more

even introduction of the thyroid hormones. Under the tongue would

result in faster absorption, which I didn't want. Here's a link to

explain more:

Like Janie, I put it between the cheek and upper gum because it takes longer

to dissolve that way. I also wonder if having more contact with saliva,

such as under the tongue, would mean more contact with the digestive enzymes

present in saliva, which might deactivate the thyroid hormones more.

I tried it under my tongue, but it kept moving around & I could taste

it - when I tried it between the cheek & gum I completely forgot about

it and didn't taste it hardly at all (unless I stuck my tongue there).

At first I thought it was nasty, but maybe I'm getting used to it - if

a little bit of it is still there when it's time to brush my teeth,

I'll just chew & swallow it and I don't mind the taste at all any more!

But no, it doesn't taste like pig to me.....

Joyce

It hasn't seemed to have any diuretic effect on me and I've been

taking it for almost 2 months in slowly increasing dosages.

Joyce

thyroid or something like that. It said that Armour has a diuretic

affect where the synthetics don't have it. I believe it was Dr.

Brownstein that said that.......Learn something new everyday. Did you

know that?
