Anybody tried hilma biocare before ?
Just ordered their T3...

@basebolt that's interesting! I also only give it a couple of shakes.
Does that apply to tyromix only or tyronene as well?

@Mr-X yes I've been drinking it for years. Someone on the RPF recommended it. And I've been drinking it ever since ,non stop.
If I don't have it , I crave it after a day or two.
Nutritionally they are the same as oranges ,that's what peat told me over email.

@DavidPS makes sense but in st least the last 2 years it was always available, but let's hope it'll come back soon .

Anybody also drink REWEs clementine juice ?
In my city it's sold out everywhere and they don't know if it's coming back . It's the only commercial OJ I was really happy with .

@thyroidchor27 I just use time and how my body reacts to it as a measure

That's remarkable. Especially since the high fat diet contained twice the amount of soybean oil compared to the high starch diet.

It seems that (at least in this animal study) that high starch is worse than high PUFA, which I didn't expect.
It might have gone differently with potatoes starch or well cooked starch.

@wester130 thanks. I'm not sure if they have the same quality as cytomel if if they list the same ingredients.
Did you order from there before ? Ordering from england is kind of risky since brexit...

I fear that people will think im exaggerating, but when I started taking tyronene T3 I had to titrate down to 0.05mcg per drop.
And even then I got adrenalin symptoms ,but it worked out in the end.
What I noticed though, is that it doesn't evenly dissolve in alcohol . First I thought it was because I used gin. Now I use 95% alcohol and it's certainly better, but towards the end of the bottle I almost always get hypothyroid symptoms.

The right dosage can be so difficult to figure out with liquid thyroid. That's why I'm looking for a way to get my hands on cytomel, but it's really hard to get in Europe.

@jamsey great study thanks for sharing!

@cs3000 great study. A 4x increase in swim time is pretty decent!
Imagine adding caffeine and b vitamins.

You can probably replace the word "workout" by "anything that's stressful to you", wether it's sports or a job interview doesn't matter. Coconut oil should make you more stress resistant.

What's also interesting is that palm oil was so much less effective , since it's also relatively saturated.
I thought it might be the MCT content, but as it turns out, the MCT content is pretty simialr on those two oils. So it might have to do with CO being more saturated.

Thanks, that's a good one.

I've only tried it a few times. It felt pretty good, but unfortunately increased my hair loss.

That's an interesting theory.

"A juxtaposition of regional cuisines and recent prospective studies of fish consumption in China and Japan points to fresh horseradish and/or radish (HRR) as possible contributors to delaying age-related dementia. The hypothesis is that the inverse association found sometimes between fish intake and cognitive decline is partially due to exposure of the oral cavity to active peroxidases from HRR served in conjunction with fish. This hypothesis can be tested by specifically looking at whether HRR is consumed with fish and whether such HRR is prepared in a way that preserves activity of HRR peroxidases. It is possible that by putting active HRR peroxidases in their mouths, elderly people supplement their age-diminished salivary antioxidant capacity and break down additional hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in the oral cavity before it can migrate into the brain, thus decreasing the incidence of brain cell death induction by chronically-elevated H2O2. Intentional exposure of the oral cavity to active HRR peroxidases could be a prophylactic for delaying dementia. Because vegetable peroxidases are inactivated by gastric juices, it will be difficult to obtain benefit from HRR peroxidases' antioxidant effect via ingestion in encapsulated dietary supplements."

@Lejeboca interesting. Wouldn't that more or less come down to a similar amount as if you use it sparingly as a food/spice?

Im noticing a potent anti-fungal effect from horseradish as well.

@alex155 probably depends on the dosage.

Taurine might help with senescence as well.

@Ismail said in Horseradish:

@Mauritio very interesting! I guess you know what I’ll be trying later

How are you eating the horse radish?

It's part of a cheese I'm eating. So I discovered it on accident. And that means pretty small amounts are sufficient for me .

I've been suspecting that horseradish has a nice effect on my mood and hair.
After reading this thread (https://raypeatforum.com/community/threads/horseradish-inactivates-bacterial-endotoxin.17437/ )
it seems to have to do with its ability to bind and deactivate endotoxin.

For me I've long suspected that hair loss is caused or at least greatly affected by a chronic sinus infection. Horseradish obviously travels into the sinuses and can have an anti-bacterial /Anti-endotoxin effect there.

I have to experiment with it more, but these studies already look promising:

1. Reduces NO,NO synthase, TNFa, IL6 and COX2

"Our results demonstrate that Armoracia rusticana reduced nitric oxide, tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-6 release and nitric oxide synthase and cyclooxygenase-2 expression in macrophages, acting on nuclear transcription factor NF-κB p65 activation."
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26411988/

2. In this study the showed that molecules extracted from horseradish have an antibacterial effect on 6 different oral pathogenic bacteria and also on Candida albicans, which explains why some people report a whiter tongue when eating horseradish regularly.
   https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24077540/

3. It seems like horseradish peroxide, which is extracted from horseradish, is very effective at inactivating estrogens from water. Since we probably all get our fair share of estrogens in water or food this might be useful , resulting in an anti-estrogen effect.
   https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17498772/
   https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17897698/

4. If I'm reading that right horseradish should have a pro-thyroid effect. Horseradish peroxide when reacting with water forms molecules that help with thyroid hormone synthesis and conversion.

"As previously shown for the lactoperoxidase FeIV Ro compound, the CcP FeIV Ro compound was involved in the coupling and not in the iodination reactions. In contrast, the HRP FeIV o pi + compound catalyzed both iodination and hormone formation. "
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/2982316/

5. Horseradish peroxide (together with thyroid hormone) oxidizes NADH Back into NAD.
   https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/192281/

Interesting.
I think people aren't aware of how difficult it can be to correctly dose T3 ,let alone T4.
