Increasing protein intake over 150g/ day seems to cause lower temps, cold feet, even on over 400g of carbs / day, so a 2:1, or close to 3:1 ratio.

I tried eating a 50:30:20 macro split of carbs/ fats/ protein, at 3000 calories, and I felt worse increasing protein.
I will try 60:25:15 next.

@alfredoolivas A temporary strategy for weight loss. I think just eating low to medium protein, or an Anabology style diet would be better instead.

A very nice benefit that I get from thyroid is improved blood sugar regulation. I do much better when in-between meals, I don’t get hungry that often, and if I do get it, I am still able to function great, and not see a crash in energy levels.

@Jonk I tried NDT once from Idealabs, I did ok on it, but the benefits were not that significant. Perhaps I should have increased the dose.
I’m now happy with Novotyral and see no reason to switch.

@Korven Not prescribed. I get it from a source in my country.

@albion said in Thyroid Log:

@GreekDemiGod Why not try 2:1 or 1:1 ratio T4/T3?

Too much of T3 even when combined with T4 gives me palpitations and chest discomfort.

Having consistently good temps and pulse in the winter on Novothyral. Brand/ product matters a lot.
I was getting inconsistent results when taking Levotiron from Turkish brand (abdi ibrahim).

Current doses: 2 daily doses of 50 mcg T4 and 15 mcg T3, totalling 100 mcg T4 and 30 mcg T3.

Note: NovothyraL has 100 mcg T4 and 20 mcg T3 in a pill. I split the pill by half and add 5 mcg T3.

@William-Shat said in What is you best advice to deepen voice:

@GreekDemiGod were the changes permanent? (From androsterone)

I’m inclined to say they weren’t. As my voice varied on the days I wasn’t taking it. But over a long enough timeline, optimising DHT, or at least avoiding DHT inhibitors, will cause permanent effects.

I had a noticeable deeper voice when taking Androsterone. Also smoking helps, but don’t recommend it.

I now seem to tolerate milk much better, which is fantastic. Before I could feel it giving me brain fog, dandruff/ dermatitis, but recently I started drinking milk again: goat milk and non-homogenized cow's milk and I feel pretty good from it.

I also realized how much the quality of the thyroid product matters. Before I was using Levotiron for T4, now I use Novothyral (100mcg T4 and 20 mcg T3 per pill), and I started feeling better in days.

Novothyral is so far the best thyroid product I could get my hands on (in Europe).

Does anyone know if Levotiron is a good T4 product?
