Tryptophin PMG may contain thyroid supplements

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for posting your query at HealthcareMagic.

I am MD Pharmacology and I will try my best to help you.

Tryptophim PMG contains Magnesium citrate and bovine thyroid PMG™ extract† (processed to substantially remove its thyroxine). Though the manufacturers boast of removing thyroid hormone from this extract, some studies (as following link) have shown some amount of T3 in it.

Thyroid supplements are commonly abused to lower weight by increasing metabolism of body. Thyroid supplements as such have been banned by authorities for weight loss as these can cause symptoms of hyperthyroidism like irritability, palpitations, insomnia, diarhea, etc. But extracts and other natural products have become available in market that are not much regulated by FDA.

There are other possible side effects caused by additives in the extract.

Thus I would like to know if you are experiencing any symptoms after taking this supplement, so that I am better able to help you. If you are not having any weight loss, then thyroid levels maybe low in this extract. And if thyroid levels in this extract are low, then it maynot be effective in weight loss. If it is not effective, there is no use in taking it.

Hope it helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.
