Guest guest Posted June 17, 2010 Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 Mhm. But we need iodine to make t4 which trns ito t3 with d3 and selenium.Iodine is only bad for those with hashis or t3-only meds.Am I right now?Sendt fra min iPhoneDen 17. juni 2010 kl. 12.33 skrev T : Well guesw you are wrong. IODINE is NOT needed for converiosn. In fact iodine is removed form T4 to make T3. http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://faqhelp.webs.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/RT3_T3/ http://www.thyroid-rt3.com/ http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HypoPets/ It's well-known, by everyone who knows anything about metabolism, that we need the following to convert (make T4) T4 to T3: Iodine Selenium D3 If this is wrong, then I don't know a single thing about anything! :-) From: MacGilchrist <s.macgilxrist (AT) yahoo (DOT) co.uk> Subject: Re: Factors that contribute towards T4 to T3 conversion To: RT3_T3 Date: Thursday, June 17, 2010, 10:20 AM As I read this I understand that a deficiency of the nutrients in the list is the cause of bad/low T4 to T3 conversion. i.e. Lack of selenium = bad/low conversion.
