Guest guest Posted April 9, 2011 Report Share Posted April 9, 2011 Nigel, Read this link it tells you what you need to know. http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ferritin/ And STTM came up with a T3/FT3 to RT3 calculator still not much help my units are in ng/dl for RT3 They don't have this. See for your self. http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/rt3-ratio/ Also for the people on Isocort it has been reformulated. OK they say this looks good but I would not bet on it. http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/2011/04/08/isocort-and-rt3-ratio-calculator\ / Co-Moderator Phil > From: Nigel <nachonigel@...> > Subject: Thyroid/Iron Question > > Date: Friday, April 8, 2011, 5:38 PM > Anyone have an idea if repleting iron > helps you store T4 better or if it > instead speeds up its conversion? > > I'm asking because my FT4 was up to the middle of the range > on 3 grains > Nature-Throid with 25 mcg T3.
