You will be able to determine if supplements for thyroid are a necessary health need by doing tests on a particular hormone known as the Thyroid Stimulating Hormone or the TSH. The relationship between the levels of your thyroid hormones and  the levels of TSH  is actually reverse. That means that as levels of thyroid hormones go up in the body, your  TSH generally go down.  Because your thyroid function can change with age, it is a good plan to occasionally test TSH levels to ensure that you are taking a sufficient quantity of thyroid supplement so that your body will maintain the  correct levels.

Both experimental and clinical scientific studies give strong support to the idea that taking  a small serving of whole thyroid extract every day as a dietary supplement might give you a wide range of positive influences. Dr. James Isaacs  who is a well known cardiovascular surgeon from Baltimore, conducted a classic study in 1974 that found evidence that those who took 1/4 grain of  a thyroid support supplement (whole thyroid is measured in grains, with 60mg being equal to1 grain) in conjunction with vitamins and minerals over a span of ten years showed  significant improvement in both cardiovascular function and cardiovascular protection.
