Adrenaline tends to restrict blood flow to extremities, and shuts off cholinergic processes of the body like digestion, saliva excretion ect. Thyroid does not stimulate cholinergic or adrenergic directly, and should promote a healthy quieting and regulation of both sides of the autonomic nervous system. Thyroid should also decrease the temperature difference between the core and the extremities.

However, there are circumstances where increasing the level of T3 in the blood will indirectly increase sympathetic nervous tone. For example, if someone has been in a hypothyroid state for a long time, they can have a chronically elevated level of adrenaline to compensate. And supplementing even extremely small amounts of T3 can suddenly sensitise their cells to the excess adrenaline in their system - and they can have an adrenergic response.

@lewis this makes me so happy to hear. I’ve definitely noticed some increases in energy over the past few months, but this is has been an entirely new level and amazing feeling.

Georgi went into nicotine in detail in an old GE episode. The summary was that nicotine is a mixed bag and is ultimately not peaty. I'll try to find it.

I wouldn't use nicotine long term. I think nicotine has some great advantages short term. It is an aromatase inhibitor. It's a monoaminoxidase type B inhibitor. So in other words, you will lower estrogen and may increase. It will decrease the degradation of dopamine, right? But it also releases free fatty acids, and it's pretty effective at that. And it has a potent pro-adrenergic effect. And it's also like basically acts as an agonist of the acetylcholine receptors. So this in the long run actually has really detrimental effects. And they outweigh the positive ones. And ironically actually, despite the fact that smoking cigarettes has other and more dangerous. So overall, cigarette is ironically like a stronger carcinogen. But systemically for the health is better in the sense that it has additional components there that mitigate somewhat the negative effects of nicotine. So, but if you only use nicotine, it's not a carcinogenic. But I think over time, it really targets the brain and the elevated free fatty acids. It basically raises your metabolism in a bad way. It mimics exhaustive exercise. You're going to get the same adrenergic slash cortisol response if you run for like, I don't know, five, six, ten miles.
