Thyroid-boosting supplements?

Hi. There is a lot of talk of using trimax and dicana and even T-3 on this board, but thyroid PCT or even general thyroid-boosting seems a little murky. What are the substances that work for this purpose?

I've hear that guggulsterones, 7-oxo-dhea or 7-keto-dhea, forskolin, tyrosine are good. Any others?

The thyroid comes back to life on its own basically.

Im on a thyroid PCT i guess you could say, im taking 2g of Ltyrosine, and 400mcg of selenium ED till they run out. The first time i used trimax i used guggabolic xtreme as PCT.
I dont think it makes any kind of huge difference. The only think i would maybe recommend would be LX to curb cortisol, and maybe sesathin to stop fat rebound.
 
NOW makes a good supp called "Thyroid Energy", but I use bulk powders for almost everything. Guggl and tyrosine are key components for sure.
 
Thanks for posting, Millwood and Kris. So is the "normal" dosage for tyrosine about 2g daily? And we add Selenium to the list. :) What's in Lean Extreme that you like so much?

But let's not argue wether or not such supplements are NECESSARY post-thyroid. They are good for anyone who might be stuck in a metabolic low-gear and playing SAFE when you use hormones is the only game in town for some people. Not flaming, Kris. But call it insurance if you must.
 
Do any of the board sponsors sell Cytomel (T3)?

Coconut oil is rich in MCT's and is great at helping boost the metabolism. Kelp is also a great supplement for raising thyroid fuction as kelp is a rich source of iodine, which is needed for a healthy thyroid function.
 
Can you run cyctomel for 2 weeks, then clen for 2 weeks, and back on cytomel etc,,,,how long could one do this? seems they work competly differently and one would be less likely to damage the thyroid with shorter, low dose t3 cycles. Thoughts?
 
Coconut oil, as Kosh stated. TP sells a MCT powder that I add to my protein mix. Sesamin softgels from Scivation are great. Add some thyroid energy and you're all set.
 
So are peple really noticing results with coconut oil? Even when it's not stacked with other things?

Has anybody noticed any sexual effects from thyroid supplements?

I take t4 long term- as in rest of my life- and I've never had a problem with it whether thyroid was low or high. Maybe a little less interest when thyroid was low.

You'd have to say what's in the compounds you are taking. Also some people just have weird reactions to certain things. I once took a prescribed medicine that did not have anything about sexual side effects even listed as possible and had major troubles, think completely non operational. 3 days after I stopped taking it everything was fine again.

Well, I'm not taking anything at the moment, but I'm probably going to take a supplement called thyroid energy. It's not supposed to be a crazy weightloss sup, sust something I want to try for my own reasons. I was just wondering how thyroid levels may affect sex.

Recreate

1. Increases thyroid output
2. conversion from t4-t3(cannot stress how important this is)
3. Induces fat release
4. Controls cravings

add in some exercise and bang!

Unless you have low thyroid to the point where you are tired enough you just want to sleep instead... not at all in my experience.
 
thyroid supplements

At present there are lots of available supplements for thyroid. Thyromine is an extraordinary medicine, perfect thyroid supplement for people suffering from thyroid problems.
 
AOR makes one called T-100x. You can buy it from bodybuilding.com It's pretty damn good, especially if your looking to do PCT coming off a T3 cycle. A lot of people will recommend supplementing with kelp for the 400-500mg of iodine in it ED. But from all the research I've done, iodine is only going to help your thyroid if for some reason you truly are iodine deficient. Which is really quite rare, unless you are on a SUPER SUPER low, like contest prep sodium restricted diet.

Yeah the body has a really efficient process for blocking out excess iodine so your body doesn't go into hyperthermogenic mode.

As an FYI if you are ever exposed to high levels of radiation or happen to be near a nuclear fallout zone then have some betadine ready, rub a large amount on your back and you should survive the early stages as radiation ablates iodine pretty quickly and it is the hypothyroidism that kills you early on. Random yes I know, but it is taught in emergency prep classes ;).
 
I'd look into Iodoral or Thyroid-X (I think that's what it's called).

Very high quality, pharmaceutical-grade, used clinically, and very effective.
