Very true - synthroid and levothyroxine are medications and not health food supplements. I merely meant that due to low output of my thyroid gland, for the past 40 years I have had to supplement my thyroid gland's output by taking synthroid or levothyroxine. I hope this clears up any confusion about my earlier post.
