Hello, I'm sorry if this isn't quite the right sub-forum to put this in, please do move it if it's better categorised elsewhere. I'm looking for any medical practitioners in the UK that might be sympathetic/receptive to Ray Peat's ideas (or I suppose one who is at least familiar with Broda...

I saw that you can increase your thyroid output by shining red light on it. Now I wonder how different that is to taking thyroid? Has anyone tried both and can compare them? A big benefit from my point of view is that I can legally get red light but not thyroid. Also the additives in the...

Hello all, I was reading that Broda Barnes dosed her patients with 2 grains of thyroid. Does anybody know what the equivalent of that would be with Tyromix?? Thank you.

Why most peoples dont manage to come off of thyroid? isn't it that once you on the thyroid and keep optimal metabolism for a while, you should, in most cases gradually come off if with no problems and keep the metabolism up?

I started a new experiment for boosting testosterone using a few things which include the scrotal application of vitamin K2 (thanks to Haidut for starting a thread about it long ago). I didn't expect much but actually got a very interesting boost in libido...a different kind that I haven't...

In the past I've heard georgi say dht actually grows hair and its high in hair loss sufferers because oestrogen is too high. He also says taurine grows hair better than finastride, note this study was in an insect less than the size of an ant. I have never seen any case report with proof than...

I want to share my journey with hormone replacement because I believe it might be useful to others. Beacuse hormones are extensively talked about here on RPF, I do think that others might benefit from some of the stuff I learned along my way. I am a medical student in my last year. I replace...

Hello, I have for the past few years been struggling with bad morning breath. It mostly occurs overnight and is worst in morning. It is so bad the morning clean up is quite an ordeal. I brush and floss and pull before bed and then in the morning with tongue scraping too. Diet has not seemed to...

I am posting this article mostly for the specific quote corroborating Peat's writing that thyroid blood tests are very unreliable and always have to be interpreted together with other "biomarkers" of thyroid function such as pulse, core temperature, muscle tone, reflexes, etc before a...
