Moths and Hair-eating Beetles:
Turns out that  Insulating glass molecular sieve ‘s not the moth that actually eats wool. It’s the larval stage -ugly little bugs. But the moths lay eggs so you need to be aware of both. And it also turns out that they eat wool, fur (and what is wool but sheep fur after?) and feathers. But they don’t care for cotton, silk or any synthetic fibers. Silk I understand I suppose -silk has already gone through a bug and emerged as its cocoon, but they don’t care for cotton? -but they eat feathers? Feathers? Not for me to say I guess. So how to keep them out of your collection? By now you may have guessed that keeping things dry is a good first step. I have no idea what the little bugs find to drink while eating your woolen stuff, but they don’t do well at all with the relative humidity less then 30%. They also need certain minerals to survive. Human sweat is a wonderful source of these minerals so -SURPRISE!- put things away CLEAN. (And remember that dirt and salt are also hydro-scopic. This means that they absorb water from the air so you will not only be giving the repellent bugs a vitamin boost, but a nice drink of water if you put your collectibles away dirty.

What about mothballs and the like? Adhesive cork pad -and there are two main ones -moth flakes and moth-balls -each a different chemical -are ordinarily repellents but can act as poison if the concentrations are high enough. Once they have evaporated, the game starts a-new. Unless you have your collection sealed up very well indeed, you may find that you have a moth problem all over again -despite the fact that you used moth stuff and kept things closed up. One species of wool eater can crawl through a hole less then 1 mm wide. You must also read the instructions on the box this stuff comes in. They can dissolve certain plastics -like the plastic used to make big boxes to store winter clothes ?!?! In humid conditions, they can also stain fabrics, so put the balls / flakes in a paper folder or envelope. Once the balls or flakes evaporate, the gas can go through almost anything. Like the silverfish above, you can freeze hair-eaters in any stage of their development. Let them become acclimatized to a nice warm place in your house, them pop them in the freezer (set at the coldest setting) for 72 hours and the problem is solved. Till another moth flits by and lays her eggs anyway.

Selenium also plays an important role in thyroid function. A dose of 100 mcg of selenium helps the thyroid to do its job better. When experiencing hypothyroidism, the coenzyme Q10 helps to protect the heart. A beneficial dose of CoQ10 is 100 to 300mg daily.

XH-7 molecular sieve can take the form of desiccated porcine thyroid. The best known brands of desiccated natural thyroid are Armour, Naturethroid and Westhroid. Desiccated thyroid contains the same hormones that your own thyroid produces: T4, T3, T2, T1 and calcitonin. Most have found that it works very well because the natural hormones are replacing the missing hormones that your body no longer produces.

Supplementing your thyroid helps to regulate the body by providing the necessary tools to support it. A low sodium diet might lead to an insufficiency in iodine. Increasing the consumption of seaweed and seafood could reduce the occurrence of hypothyroidism in many people. Others require an additional supplement like natural hormone replacement. The type of supplement you select is based on what works well for you. As with all treatments for any kind of condition you may be suffering from always discuss them with your doctor.
