Guest guest Posted November 28, 2006 Report Share Posted November 28, 2006 I take mine3-4 times a day. (Was taking it 4 when I had 20mcg tabs, now I have 50mcg tabs!)But I take 50mcg a day! I take 25mcg at 6AM, then 12.5mcg at 2PM and 12.5 mcg at bedtime. I developed this timing due to several things. One T3 is needed most at night to repair tisue damage rom the previous day, hence when you are low the mrning aches and pains. Then I always had an energy slump in the afternoons around 4 PM.. I feel T3 within 2 hours of taking it. So the 2PM dose arrivesd. Then in th emorning I have always felt our thyroid needs to be highest so I give my self the largest T3 dose then. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV My Ebay Jewelry Store (Closing after Xmas!!!) http://stores.ebay.com/valeriescrystalcreations http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 28, 2006 Report Share Posted November 28, 2006 I'm ok in the morning but I get the " can't keep my eyes open another minute " around 5pm which is when I take my third dose of armour. I take my last dose of 1 grain at bedtime This is my schedule, tell me where I could improve it 6am 2 grains armour 10am 12.5mcg T3 12 noon 1 grain armour 3pm 12.5 mcg T3 5pm 1 grain armour 10pm 1 grain armour There's probably too much time between the 5pm dose and the bedtime dose but I need the 5pm one to keep me awake and the 10pm one is my bedtime one. Any suggestions? Lynda Re: T3 dosing >I take mine3-4 times a day. (Was taking it 4 when I had 20mcg tabs, >now > I have 50mcg tabs!)But I take 50mcg a day!

Guest guest Posted November 28, 2006 Report Share Posted November 28, 2006 6am 2 grains armour 10am 12.5mcg T3 12 noon 1 grain armour 3pm 12.5 mcg T3 5pm 1 grain armour 10pm 1 grain armour I would put your 3PM dose of T3 and your 5PM dose of Armoru together at 3PM. Thsi should help alleviate the 5PM slump. By 7Pm that slump should be past and you weon;t need the higher T3 you need earlier in the day. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV My Ebay Jewelry Store (Closing after Xmas!!!) http://stores.ebay.com/valeriescrystalcreations http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
