@torporade Just found out there's a class action suit against RiseWell for being contaminated with PFAS. The claim is 188 ppb which is a lot. https://topclassactions.com/lawsuit-settlements/consumer-products/childrens-products/risewell-childrens-toothpaste-contains-pfas-class-action-claims/

Oxalate could be a factor to consider as well. If you reach the point where you have oxalate excess (either because you are consuming a lot of oxalate or your body is producing it), that will definitely make your urine cloudy (not sure about foamy).

I'm not aware of any great info on oxalate that really explains the root cause of a person having oxalate issues. But once you are at that point there are definitely things that can make it worse. Two peaty things that come to mind are collagen (for the hydroxyproline) and OJ (vitamin c). For me at least, both of these things cause noticeably increased cloudiness.

T3 only user here. I currently take 87.5 mcg / day. I would suggest you ramp up (much) more slowly. When I was increasing my t3 I continued to notice positive changes for at least a week without changing my dose. I only increased once things seemed to become stable, my heart rate was not excessive, and I wasn't noticing further changes. T3 needs to be respected.

Also, fwiw my response to thyroid was pretty subdued until I started taking vitamin D, so if your levels are low, you might want to consider supplementing that first.

@torporade it’s expensive but I use RiseWell. Clean ingredients afaik.

I liked Kate Deering's book when I was first starting out peating. It's like ray peat for normies.
