This is a review of the dietary supplement Mega Food Thyroid Strength, made by Food State, Inc., a manufacturer who declares that their product is vegetarian, certified as pesticide-free, made with no genetically modified organisms (GMO’s) and  will supply the most genuine nutrition available on the supplement market today. They also claim that the supplement supports thyroid fitness and increased metabolic function.

Ingredients

  • Iodine (a component of the thyroid’s hormones thyroxine and triiodothyronine)
  • Zinc (plays a role in support of immune function)
  • Selenium Copper with L-tyrosine (assists in the process of thyroid function)
  • Coleus Forskohlii (assists with metabolic processes)
  • Sensoril (Asdhwawagandha extract, a plant root)
  • Plant Cellulose
  • Guar Gum
  • Vegetable Lubricant
  • Silica

NOTE: There is no information available regarding the quantities of supplement ingredients

Dosage

The recommended dosage is described as 2 tablets daily, which may be taken with or without food. However, the product does not tell us how much of each component is contained in a serving which makes it unclear how much of each component in being ingested.

Possible Side Effects

The manufacturer’s website does not mention the presence of side-effects other than a possible reaction in people with food sensitivities.  It does state that the product is comprised of foods which contain natural enzymes that are easily processed by the body such as brown rice, carrots, oranges, nutritional yeast, cranberries, broccoli and blueberries.  We are not advised that the product could be problematic for women who are pregnant or wanting to become pregnant.

Price

There is no cost listed on the manufacturer’s website. They do provide a tool which may be used to find a supplier based on your location but this does not seem as convenient as being able to order the product directly from the website.

Guarantee

The manufacturer does not offer any type of guarantee for the product and this raises concerns that customers will be unable to return it if they find it ineffective or that it causes allergies or other side-effects.

Conclusion

Mega Food Thyroid Strength seems to be a good product. It is vegetarian and it is manufactured without pesticides and free of many of the additives that may cause allergies. However, it does not tell us how much of each individual ingredient the supplement contains making us wonder if it is the correct amount for the product to serve its purpose. It does not list any contraindications and this is an issue for people taking medications, prescribed or otherwise. For example, Ashwagandha may actually have side effects and interact with other medications. The manufacturer does not caution consumers to consult a physician before trying it.

Food State, Inc. does not provide a clear idea of what the product will cost nor does it offer a guarantee that a consumer will be able to return it if they are not satisfied.  All in all, the unanswered questions will leave potential customers with the feeling that there may be other products on the market that would be a better choice.
