668. We Put T2 to the Test: The Research, Our Results, and the New Thyroid Fixxr
What does the research actually tell us about T2, the often-overlooked thyroid hormone? In this episode, I break down the science behind T2, from animal research on metabolism and fat browning to the limited human studies available, including a 2011 study that found changes in resting metabolic rate and body weight.
I also share the results of our own 14-week trial involving 14 women with different thyroid and hormonal profiles. We look at what happened, what surprised me most, how the findings influenced our dosing approach, and where more research is still needed.
What you’ll learn:
Why researchers are interested in T2 and metabolism
What animal studies have shown about T2 and fat browning
What the limited human research tells us
What happened in our 14-woman trial
Why thyroid function made some of the results particularly interesting
What the findings changed about our dosing approach
What we still need to learn about T2
There’s a lot to be curious about when it comes to T2, but the research matters. Tune in as I walk through what we know, what we’ve seen firsthand, and what still needs to be studied.
