      @questforhealth You realize that saying "eat natural" presupposes that people know what is or isn't natural, and also that your vision of what nature entails has always been that way for tens of thousands of years. Meanwhile, we only have eyewitnesses for a few thousand. Manufactured B1 might not be "naturally occuring in food" but that does not mean that it is unnatural for mankind to bring order to nature and manufacture vitamins and use them for their advantage. In fact, this is a part of the basis of nature, that mankind subdues the earth in a mutualistic relationship.

        Yeah but that's what I said. Gardening is part of that. So is hunting. Even Dr Peat himself said natural food is better because it contains enzymes that help the nutrients be absorbed better.

        It's also cheaper to do it that way especially with the times we live in

        Do you really want to eat coal tar b1? We would laugh at someone if they said they are a rockatarian but it seems this forum is full of rockatarians. shocking me now.

          @questforhealth You can laugh all you want cause the b1 chemical is still the b1 chemical. People laugh at those who would dare say that sodomy and 8 month abortion is immoral, so being laughed at over nutrition is nothing.

          I don't take the vitamin's I just know that your mindset is really destructive and limiting if taken to its logical conclusion because I took it there doing things like not eating salt cause "its a rock" (aajonus) or not drinking water cause "its a solvent" and doing all sorts of crazy things. Also doing things like not cooking my foods due to a false view of what nature consists of. I know people who have been stuck in that mindset for over 5 years and still aren't "detoxed" yet.

            But a synthetic vitamin only feeds the physical body at the end of the day no matter what we think it will do for us

            we have to consider it all and think of the big picture in our lives

            there needs to be a push for agriculture that grows food to be nutritious not to grow food just for the sake of growing food or we are going to be needing more and more supplements

            our lives don't have to be so hard if we stand up and fight for what is right today after all

              Latest blood test came out bad.

              • High LDL (154 mg/dL)
              • Low DHEA-S
              • High-ish Prolactin (336 uUI/mL)
              • Low Test 300 ng/dL
              • High TSH 3.4 uUI/mL

              I only slept 5 hours that night before the blood test, so that might have had an influence. But it's still bad.
              Thinking of trying exogenous thyroid again, but on all the combinations I've tried in the past I've felt worse on a long-term basis.

                When you say that, is it during or after you stop using it?

                  I made the mistake of switching my doses way too often.
                  I should have stayed on a dose for a minimum of 2 weeks, ideally 4-6 weeks.

                  This time, 'm going to try 50mcg T4 + 25/ 50 mcg T3 for a month.

                    @GreekDemiGod which brand did u use ? i guess idealabs? Ive had such problems with tyromix and tyromax such a high adrenaline response with pounding heart all nights. Dont want to bash haidut here but liquid thyroid can be a hit or miss. I know high adrenaline from synthetic t4 only, t4/t3 combos, NDT and Glandular. But these two was accpetional never had this in my life.

                      I don't know your background (apart from what you said in your post) or your diet in general, but I would consider that something is wrong with your diet or routine, especially if supplementing thyroid with a stable dose doesn't help you and you "feel worse on a long-term basis" just like before, since thyroid increases the need for nutrients.

                      Thyroid supplementation has to be a support for a higher state, not a mask

                        Had a brain MRI yesterday. Found out I have a deviated septum and inflamed sinuses. This would explain my chronic stuffed nose, loss of smell, morning fatigue and headache, poor, non-restorative sleep.
                        Will likely do septoplasty in the coming months.
                        And I usually sleep on my back, which is only worsening. I will start using bigger pillows and sleep on my side.

                          @GreekDemiGod If it makes you feel any better, these things are somewhat common findings on an MRI. Somehow I fixed by chronic sinus problems by getting my Vitamin D levels restored to normal (which I think fixed PTH). Though recently spring allergies have been a little annoying. I couldn't bring myself to do a septoplasty.

                            Started using Gelatin, bought 2 bags of 2 kgs, I'm taking 2 tbsp at each meal bloomed in water, so 6 tbsp/ day.
                            I'm hoping to have a beneficial effect on my digestion, and to reduce my intestinal inflammation.
                            Already noticing more bowel movements from it.

                              What I'm currently doing

                              • 6 tbsp Gelatin per day
                              • 75 mcg T4
                              • Aggressive Strength Testosterone Booster (1 month of this almost doubled my T levels, from 300 to 590)
                              • Dandelion + Chamomile tea

                                  @Mr-X It's a brand name, that based on my research, is one of the few legit ones.

                                    I saw this post by Danny Roddy and it perfectly matches my symptoms. Hopefully getting the dose right and bringing my temps and pulse to optimal levels solves them.

                                    *Hypoglycemia, steatorrhea (fat malabsorption), and gynecomastia are three of the most common liver problems associated with hypothyroidism that I know of. The right dose of thyroid hormone has been used to correct all three problems. Along with all the typical markers of hypothyroidism (e.g., pulse, temperature, cholesterol), the hormone prolactin has been used to assess the severity of liver disease.

                                    "Hypothyroidism may have features that mimic liver disease (pseudo‐liver disease)." Hodges (2002)*

                                      Motility is still low, constipation still present. I have to take Magnesium Oxide and Cascara daily to get the bowels moving. I've also been eating gelatin regularly (6 tbsp/ day), it does feel soothing to my digestive tract, but don't feel digestive symptom improvements from it. Helps my sleep, though.

                                      I also started taking TUDCA, Glutamine again. I've used them in the past on and off.
                                      Also drinking dandelion tea regularly (for liver/ bile support)

                                        Bowel movements regularity is now better. And I’m no longer using Mag. Oxide or Cascara Sagrada as I ran out.
                                        Coffee and cigarettes are useful in triggering a BM.
                                        But my chronic bloating hasn’t much improved.
                                        I’m at a loss on what to try next for digestion.

                                          @GreekDemiGod What does your diet look like? Are your pulse and temp going up? Digestion and motility are highly dependent on thyroid function

                                            What is your activity levels like? I’ve noticed walking regularly and/or sprinting tend to speed up digestion.

                                            Also I pretty heavily relied upon nicotine for a while which tended to greatly speed up bowels and made my bloating disappear completely, it gave me a very flat stomach that felt great and it was a very similar feeling to thyroid in that regard. Not so similar to thyroid as it made me manic even in smaller doses. Vitamin D tends to eliminate bloating when taken orally but also makes me feel weird when I take it for too long so I only reserve it for when I know I need it. Thyroid has eliminated bloating for me as well but it’s hard to find the right dose. When I’ve eaten liver in the past it has had the same effect but also comes with other bad side effects at higher doses.

                                            I’d say nicotine is a no go long term solution that may be helpful in the short term.

                                            I’m very serious about sprinting though. It has been the most beneficial to my health over any food or supplement.

                                            That’s just my experience with things in terms of digestion
