I like to run a low dose of t3 for a few months when dieting. Like 50mcg every morning. Would it be better to run maybe 25mcg T3 and 100mcg T4 v.s. 50mcg T3. Its the same total dose of T3 but is there any benefit of using the t4?
T4 takes 4-6 weeks to be fully converted, so plain on waiting a while for results from it. Unless you are hypothyroid or on GH its useless IMO.
Pretty much the same results here. This combo is milder but very effective if you're on GH.the ratio in the human body for t4 to t3 is about 4 to 1. A lot of regular people who have low thyroid output use a product called Armour Thyroid. Its a combo of t4/t3 in about a 4 to 1 ratio.
I'm on IP's right now which is 40mcg t4 / 17mcg t3. Not quite 4 to 1 but semi-close. I'm doing 2 tablets a day now and am loosing lots of bodyfat.
Get a TSH, t-4 and a t-3 test before knowing if you need t-4, t-3 or nothing.
