If im takimg 50mcg of T3 a day, do you guys recommend taking all 50mcg in the morning or 25 morning and 25 night? Or what? Then do you guys cycle it? Like, 2 weeks on, 1 week off, repeat or..? Thank you
All at once as its half life is long. It makes me tired as all get out while on it. You also need to pyramid it every 2 weeks I will go up to my dose then stay there 2 weeks then back down as I went up.
Bla bla bla. Just take it really, having said that. I split mine up.. not sure about the having to increase.every two weeks. Ect.
I stayed on 25mcg for ever. Then 50 for my prep. Split in two doses
Pretty sire I was.on over 8 months. Just long cycle off. And I seemed fine, did.t get fat ect
It is best to split your dose. It has a long half-life but it peaks within 8 hours so ideally, splitting it keeps levels more stable. Kaladryn has covered this many times. It's especially important to split doses when you run more than 50mcg.
I like to take it first thing am and I did one week on one week off with clen and had really great results walking on the treadmill for 20 mins after a work out and hitting abs hard every other day but very good results
The one time I took it I took it all upon waking up, since that is really the only time during the day my stomach is truly empty, which is key when taking T#.
Very opposite responses. Some say it makes them tired and a zombie others saying it gives you tons of energy.
ive been splitting it up. However last night I forgot to take it at 5pm as normal and took my 25mcg before bed and was up all night. Like a stimulant!
Im going to be doing a show in 6 weeks and im behind on fatloss so I may just go all out at 25mcg morning and 25mcg later in the day straight with no time off.
"T3 is an interesting example of nonlinear half-life. My doctor is extremely experienced in thyroid replacement and hypothyroidism. He recommends twice daily dosing if it doesn't mess with sleep patterns. Because the half-life is nonlinear, the actual halflife does not matter. I know this is hard to believe, but it is accurate.
As SitySlicker stated, the PEAK activity happens at 2-4 hours, this means that after that peak, T3 levels are declining. This is why many people dose T3 twice per day, once in the AM, and again mid day."
I've always had great results taking 50mcg first thing in the morning on an empty stomach. Cycling thyroid would be counterproductive as it takes a few weeks to rebound. I stay on during my entire cut.
