I have heard Ray mention this effect on one of the podcasts. I'm looking for a study demonstrating this concept to show the doctor. Any suggestions?

I would be very interested in seeing this too.

It wouldn't be surprising tbh, my mom had to surgically remove her thyroid as it was hypo and also affected her esophagus due to a pretty bad goiter. The doctors put her on permanent prescription of T4 (Levothyroxine), but still she hasn't improved a lot. I think it's due to her having a problem converting T4 to T3.
