: : : It's a shame we have to suffer because doctors don't believe in looking phenominal instead of just above average.
: : : When you used the cytomel, how much weight did you gain after coming off, I don't feel like it would be worth doing if
: : : you only look good for a few weeks and risk throwing off your natural thyroid cycle. (In our case,can our thyroid even
: : : get any worse than it already is?)
: : : I've used triacana and it worked well, but I lost the extra cuts I had once I finished.(I didn't gain
: : : extra weight which is good)

: : Before you try the Cytomel route, you might want to
: : take a look at a natural herb called Guggulsterones.

: : Duchanie wrote about it in his 'Ask the Guru' column
: : Jan. '97 of MM2k. According to Duchaine "guggulstreones
: : causes an uptake of iodine in thyroid and increases
: : the secretion of T4 and T3."

: : I tried this at 25 mg a day in addition to 500mg
: : of L-Tyrosine. Now my body chemistry is very similar
: : to you guys. If I don't eat perfectly, I will put
: : on fat very easily. With guggulsterones and L-Tyrosine
: : I felt very lean. I took a thyroid test with
: : the following results:

: : TSH 1.24
: : Total T3 91
: : T3 Uptake 33%
: : T4 8.9

: : I compared this with my blood tests from a few
: : years back and they don't seem to be that much
: : different. So take this for whatever it's worth.

: : Now I had to stop because I was noticing my hair
: : was thining and I felt somewhat mentally sluggish.
: : I have a genetic predisposition to hair loss so
: : guggl. might not have much to do with this.

: : Any way, Duchaine is recommending 25mg at 3 times a day.
: : I was taking 25 mg a day. So at his recommendations
: : you might have better results. Enzematic therapy
: : among others is one of the suppliers.

: : Hope this helps and goodluck.

: Your only supposed to mess with thyroid if you have a hypothyroid like I do or if your trying to cut up for a contest. Otherwise as you have found you get screwed. Anarchy In the USA!

I would agree with your statement in most parts. But
remeber 1) Guggulsterones is not a drug 2) Many people
take it (mostly non-atheletes - average everyday
folks) to reduce their cholesterol levels.
