@alfredoolivas said in The pro-thyroid effects of ethanol (lowered TSH & reverse T3, increased uptake and thyroid receptor expression):

A possible mechanism for this effect is ethanol’s interaction with the thyroid system. Rather than increasing thyroid hormone secretion, ethanol appears to remove obstacles in the thyroid hormone pathway, allowing more of it to enter cells and activate its receptor.

Firstly, in humans, ethanol appears to lower TSH without affecting circulating thyroid hormone levels. This suggests that it increases the thyroid gland’s sensitivity to TSH signals.

Great thread. Just don't forget to pay the piper.

There may be other ways to "remove obstacles" if and while a debt is paid.

@CrumblingCookie sadly dopamine agonists are not usually prescribed to patients, even in Parkinsons, as they usually just prescribe Levodopa, so of course none of these drugs are commonly prescribed.

Pramixepole is the new dopamine agonist and that increases noradrenaline, and as far as I know, Amantidine and especially memantine, are commonly prescribed off-label, for many conditions such as MS and depression.

Why isn’t Bupropion a good DA reuptake inhibitor? It’s even combined with naltrexone, in a formula called Mysimba, which creates an anti-opioid, anti endotoxin, pro dopamine and noradrenaline effect

@Lothric Im glad that worked out for you! I find that i have much more consistent energy doing it that way too.
