I’m wondering if anyone is actually testing Progesterone levels before supplementing.

If your Progesterone is low, I think you going to have all good benefits from a drop or maybe two of Progest È, but if you don’t need any, too much Progesterone can have his side effects

@LucH

thanks for taking a look at this video and commenting on it.

@LucH

I read Dr Browstean book years ago and started the Iodine. However, lately I have changed completely my mind about it.

I made a post in the forum, if you have time, watch the video attached to it and let me know what you think about, this is completely the opposite view on Iodine.

@Mr-X thanks

do you mind sharing your dosing protocol and TSH level?

@LucH

thanks. it seems to be in line with another post I found on this forum. Some mention they take NDT with food and dairy to drop the ration of T4 to T3 from 4:1 to 3 to perhaps 2:1.

Danny Roddy in a video I recall was showing a study just delaying absorption, but according to the study you posted, it seems to be doing a little bit of both, delaying absorption and decreasing absorption of T4, probably not that clinically significant when t4t3 combo is used.

@TexugoDoMel

isn't that the T4 and T3 in NDT digest/absorb in a different manner from synthetic T4 and T3, therefore we can't really account for the text you attached , or this comes from a study that used specifically NDT?

I suspect that if we compare absorption with food/Ca of NDT vs Synthetic t4/T3 combo, things may be different

@Mr-X said in Thyroid on empty stomach or with food?:

for example i take NDT 1:4 ratio with meals and much calcium I can drop the ratio to 1:3 or 1:2

do you take your NDT with meals and Ca supplement or you mean dairy as Calcium?

@LucH

Do you have any feedback on taking desiccated thyroid in proximity to the Ca supplement? I take small amounts of NDT right before breakfast lunch and dinner.

People in the Peat community have confirmed NDT and Dairy is ok, not sure NDT and Ca supplement

@LucH thanks

I looked at my cronometer, and on normal days my phosphorous is almost 1300mg and Ca with not supplementation is 1000, so this called for 1500mg tot Ca.

When I eat Liver, I realize my phosphorus shoot to 2000mg.

Do we include the Ca from plant food as well or only from dairy? there may be a good chance the Ca from plant and fruit may not be as available

@LucH thanks.

I heard also Danny Roddy before mentioning 1500mg Of Ca where required to lower PTH. however, I never thought about the context of the diet can make the difference in the Ca requirement, just like you mentioned.

I think I'm going to set my Cronometer to 1000mg max again.
