T3 seems OK at the same time as food, T4 does get affected by food. > >Also, how much calcium is too much to take near thyroid meds? There is 200mg of calcium in my multi - this is a no-no right? Not sure of detailed numbers but it seems a fair bit. It might be a good idea to take the T3 nearest the multi sublingually just to be on the safe side Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
