    “This supplement could give you as much thyroid hormone as you get in a prescription drug or more,” said Dr. Victor Bernet, chairman of endocrinology at the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, Fla., and senior author of the study. He became interested in so-called thyroid-support supplements after seeing a patient with inexplicable test results. The patient eventually admitted that he had been taking a supplement that a friend recommended for “low energy.”


    Thyroid disease is common — and more common in women, affecting one in 10 over age 50. Patients may suffer fatigue, lethargy and weight gain, but not everyone with those symptoms has the illness. Patients taking thyroid hormone should be checked regularly by a physician, Dr. Bernet said.

    “Thyroid hormone has a narrow therapeutic window,” he said, and “it’s easy to go over or under” the optimal dosages.

    Taking too much can disrupt the body’s ability to regulate hormone levels, and actually may trigger thyroid disease in a healthy person, Dr. Bernet said. Excessive doses of thyroid hormone also can cause anxiety, insomnia and emotional changes, as well as bone loss and serious heart problems.

    Is it worth risking your health?

    well.blogs.nytimes.com/2014/01/20/thyroid-supplements-with-a-kick/?_r=0

    Not true
    Whilest i agree to the article i also must say that not every case is the same
    Do you know that the thyroid gland getts attacks? In my case my dose keeps changing and shifting from high to low and i have to adjust my dose accordingly?
    The article is correct but it speaks generally about the standard thyroid cases and NOT all

    I am never going to jeopradize my health but if i fail to reach my goal i might consider giving it a try

    Yes this is true. OP - please do you due diligence and research more than just one case study before arguing with medical fact.

    I am thyroid patient already and i do take those pills anyway

    You already have a thyroid condition and you want to play games taking unnecessary thyroid hormones?

    Lol i ain't at all and i don't have to prove it
    Neither i am defending anything i am sharing my understanding from my readings and a live case from someone i knew for years
    And i did not see anyone from all who added their posts answered any of my questions so far
    The only one who "shared" in relation to my question was trigden1991

    T3 pills yes are hormonic pills
    L'carnitine injections are vitamin injections
    T3 and t4 perform together to produce what the body required to activate the tsh in our bodies
    I am thyroid patient already and i do take those pills anyway
    Likewise how you take a cup of coffee or redbull to enhance your body function when you are tired or lazy these pills will enhance your activity level which will lead to burning more cals if you will work out
    Whilest i disagree that a non-thyroid patient should take them i don't see any harm for a thyroid patient who already is taking them to continue or take a bit stronger dose to lose/burn more
    If you read my post properly i was asking if anyone tried the injections and could share their experience ,it's very clear that i was not asking for an advice :)
    But thanks to you anyway

    1. It is L-carnitine.
    2. It is not a vitamin. It is an amino acid.

    You've said a couple times its vitamins.

    You don't even know what it is that you want to inject into yourself.

    Seems pretty *kitten* stupid to me.

    Log into the fda website and read the term
    You will find that they are called vitamins
    Plus amino acid is good for humans not a harmful thing at all

    A. Your mate is juicing. He's taking gear. He's doing clenbuterol/t3 cycles usually used by bodybuilders 8-10 weeks out of a show.

    B. Just like everything else you still require a calorie deficit. Non of the above mentioned compounds are 'fat burners'. They act in ways to increase fat loss in a calorie deficit, as well as loss of all other fuel sources (see point D.)

    C. You will gain weight post cycle, as you have suppressed normal thyroid function.

    D. You mate is also probably taking anabolics to offset the fact that he's turned his body in to a catabolic monster. T3 depletes atp stores so rapidly that in an attempt provide adequate fuel to the body and replenish atp stores your body has to turn to muscle tissue as well as to body fat.

    E. These drugs are dangerous even in the hands of seasoned users. You have no idea what you are doing, stay well away.

    Can you supply the FDA link stating this? Anyone with a rudimentary understanding of biology knows that it is an amino acid.

    Maybe you are different, but doubt it.

    T3 as in the thyroid hormone T3? If so, that is a prescription medication and should not be taken without the supervision of an endocrinologist.

    Taking that without needing to (I.e. You don't have hypothyroidism) can lead to things like erratic heartbeat, heart palpitations and death.

    ^^this so this

    T3 is incredibly dangerous in people without thyroid disease. And yeah you can lose 15kg in a month using T3, the L carnitine had nothing to do with it, but soooooooo dangerous keep wel clear if you don't want to do permanent damage to yourself!

    Just read you have thyroid disease, you could of course ask your endocrinologist to prescribe T3 for you which should help with your weightloss struggles but I do maintain only under strict medical supervision it isn't the wonder weightloss cure (and actually the reason why people who genuinely need it find it so difficult to get it precribed. It was originally marketed as a miracle weightloss cure for euthyroid people, until the people using it started having heart problems now doctors are really disinclined to prescient it even to thyroid patients).

    Yes, I am quite familiar with how the thyroid functions. I would rather take advice regarding thyroid supplements from an endocrinologist than a "friend".

    Thanks no i won't of course
    Everyone here attacking but it's intresting thing i love defending my points as long as i have a valid claim
    its not poison and it's not dangerous if taken correctly
    And since no studies are confirmed yet people prefer not to risk taking them
    When the fda does not approve a medicine it does not mean it is bad it means that no enough studies were made on this product
    Unless stated that they are dangerous
    Most of the celebrities use these injections but certainly with guidance

    Since you are already on thyroid meds, have you spoken with your doctor about this plan? Seems like that would be a more appropriate place to start than random internet strangers. Then again for 7-8 vanity pounds, pretty sure you already know his answer.

    l'carnitine injections for fat burn did anyone try them?? My friend lost 15 kgs in one month but i am unsure if i should take them or not and are they safe ?

    I guarantee you, if anything other than a calorie deficit causes weight loss, it is not good. Don't look for quick magical ways to lose weight, but instead at a calorie deficit to lose weight slowly so that you can create a lifestyle change.

    Just curious how can you guarentee this? I mean no offence but Did you try them to give your feedback? Or do you know someone who did? Amd why shouldn't i look for faster ways? Convince me

    I'm not offended. ;)

    Did I try to give whom my feedback? Why should I try to convince you that trying to lose weight by some way other than a calorie deficit is not safe? It seems to be your mind is already made up that your friend experienced magic weight loss. :)

    Why do you want to look for a faster way to lose weight? You are 5 ft 6 and weigh 124 pounds, and you want to lose 7 or 8 more pounds? That will put you at 117-118 pounds, which will make you on the high end of underweight. http://www.healthchecksystems.com/heightweightchart.htm.

    You are very convinced that this "injection" is magic because your friend has convinced you he lost all that weight by taking it. Based on this, and that fact that you want to lose weight quickly when you are already at a normal weight, sounds like you might have some issues that can be addressed with professional help.

    And you are tempted to mess around with non prescription hormone/ thyroid meds because you want to lose 7 pounds?

    Are you mad?

    B. Just like everything else you still require a calorie deficit. Non of the above mentioned compounds are 'fat burners'. They act in ways to increase fat loss in a calorie deficit, as well as loss of all other fuel sources (see point D.)

    C. You will gain weight post cycle, as you have suppressed normal thyroid function.

    D. You mate is also probably taking anabolics to offset the fact that he's turned his body in to a catabolic monster. T3 depletes atp stores so rapidly that in an attempt provide adequate fuel to the body and replenish atp stores your body has to turn to muscle tissue as well as to body fat.

    E. These drugs are dangerous even in the hands of seasoned users. You have no idea what you are doing, stay well away.

    Lovely explanation

    Hope the rest here learn :)

    Wessx, you hope the rest of us learn what? Did you thoroughly read this post?

    I hope that the rest will learn how "to share information" rather than attacking and providing advices without any valid point
    everyone jumping to their own assumption and theories without addressing my points
    I can see that i hadlogical replies to all who commented when no one managed to provide a satisfactory answer to (1) wether they tried them (2) know anyone who did (3)heard about a case on "those" injections precisely
    Everything natural is better (agreed) we are in 2016 and the field of medicine developed a lot so why not take advantage of it?
    Why shall i listen to anyone here? My friend is not a doctor neither any of whoever posted above ..atleast my friend have 12 years experience in this

    I was agreeying to many opnions in which i felt are being logical here but i still see that my claim about the injections is strong still because no one gave answers

    Coffee ,cigarettes ,junk food and many other things are all dagerous things to our health but people still have them
    L'carnitine is sold as pills as well (which i am sure none from the above who commented knew) but people naturally have trypanophobia hearing the word "injections"

    I am convinced that "they did magic" to my friend NOT "they are magic" even if i will agree that they are bad atleast he took them right

    I hope you are able to see things from my side it's important when you negotiate

    Well Idk if it will put me in underweight category i guess i need to read up on this
    Ill check the link and get back

    This^^^^^. T3 taken without anabolics will cause massive muscle wastage!

    You came here looking for opinions and people gave honest opinions. Why get puss just because those opinions didn't support what you want to do?

    The bottom line is that it's YOUR body. Put anything in it that you want. YOU are the one who will live with the consequences.

    People gave you honest answers, but it seems to me you did not want to hear those answers. None of us get to say how those answers should be delivered. No offense, but I don't see your answers as logical at all. :)

    If you are convinced that the injections "did magic," that is the same thing as saying they "are magic." It doesn't matter what kind of a verb you put in front of magic, the definition remains the same.

    If something is bad for you, taking it "right" is irrelevant.

    What are you trying to negotiate? It sounds to me like you are rebuffing the truth and trying to get validation and convince others that taking this injection is okay.

    Coffee and food (of any kind) are just coffee and food-they are not good or bad.

    Cigarettes is a whole other discussion.

    And, because of this statement:
    Well Idk if it will put me in underweight category i guess i need to read up on this

    I am even more convinced that you need to talk to a professional about issues around weight.
