Milk and Cheese with NDT feedback
-
I'm wondering what everyone experience is with NDT taken in proximity with milk or cheese.
Did the dairy decrease absorption of the thyroid?
-
@GRay, I’m not sure if the same can be said for calcium supplements, but I’ve always taken NDT with meals to slow its absorption so I can dose more than the physiologically appropriate 4 mcg of T3 per hour without running into problems, and my thyroid numbers and stats (temps, pulse rate etc.) are the best on a dairy-based diet so it hasn’t been my experience that dairy decreases the absorption of thyroid. I don’t recall Ray ever saying to take thyroid away from dairy, either. I only ever heard him say it’s better to take it with food and he recommended dairy so…

I drink milk all day long, so I could never take it without proximity to dairy. I use armour ndt, which has to be digested for body usage.

Thanks for your feedback. What is your dose/frequency?
I think the T3 in Armour is bound to protein, so it may be more slow released already than Cytomel for example. I’m not sure Peat used to refer to a synthetic T3 and therefore the need to take it with food multiple times per day?

Thanks, what your dose/frequency with the Armour?
