I am very curious. I realize it is dangerous for you thyroid and it could shut down. I have of T-4 synthroid 100mcg. I realize your body takes T-4 and makes t-3 from that I believe and you body only converts about 50 to 75% of T4. I read this on the synthroid web page last night any thoughts? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Checkmate, the most t-3 i've ever taken is 100mcg per day and the most i've ever heard of anyone taking is 150mcg per day. to speed up fat loss you should stack it with clenbuterol or eca. you don't want to mess around with 300mcg per day because you could end up having to take t-3 for the rest of your life. also, t-3 usually makes you very warm and sweaty. but i have experienced some cold feelings from it but only when i was wet from sweating. btw, lower your carb intake and increase your cardio while on t-3 and the fat will melt away. hope this helps. ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Cool and thanks, but I am talking about T4 and the conversion rate to T-3 in the body. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Raver from the UG has an article that tells people to go up to 300mcg. Has there been "real" scientific studies done to show that large amounts of t3 does in fact permantly shut down your own production. Every body seems to be saying if you take too much "you have to take it for the rest of your life". I don' think people really know they just merely repeat what other people say. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Yes, Dr. A, but the only problem is it was posted on the Canadian board which is now closed. I will see if I can get Freshr1 to repost it here for the bros. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

I just e-mail him and I am sure he will repost it when he gets the chance. Look for a Thyroid post by Freshr1. Contains good info on low dose thyroid drugs and the many benefits. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Wow, you are right. I figured with the Canadian board being shut down, the link would not work anymore. That's good. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Thanks guys, I read that article before I posted this, it was still not clear to me and I wanted to know if anybody had used that much t4, not t3. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Wish I could help you here, check. I am taking T4 right now but it also contains T3 in the form of Cynoplus by Smith Kline Beetcham. So I guess that really wouldn't be relevant in your case. Oh well. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
