My daughter almost died and I have been nursing her back to health for years
with no extra money so has been hard. She does not have medicaid and is
trying to work one day a week to regain her mobility or strength. So, that
is the reason I am always asking questions and for places to obtain products
reasonably. then, make that list and check it twice and hope to order one
thing. Soooo, here is my question. She has the blue moons and so I know she
is not properly dispersing the CS and think selenium plays a big role. She
is also fat and has not been able to lose weight. Now, what is the T3 and T4
and how do we find out what is needed?? Please be patient with me and help
me if you can.
By the way, I am soooo proud of my new distiller my friend purchased for me.
Just got it. I felt that was very important in making good CS as lots of
times the water would turn cloudy from using Purified Distilled water from
the store. I buy the reverse osmosis water from a place that does this in
town. We live in a small town.
Thanks so much,
Leslie

Hi Gina My understanding of the role of Selenium is just the opposite.
Selenium is the major co-factor for the enzyme 5' diodinase which is
responsible for the convesrsion of T4 into T3. Studies prove lower
conversion rates in individuals with low selenium. Other studies reveal
that increasing selenium is beneficial to the conversion and furthermore
it reduces the formation of rT3.
Oliveri O, Gerelli et al. Selenium Zinc and thyroid hormones in healthy
subjects low ratio of t3/t4 in older subjects Biol Trace Elem Res 1996;51
31-41
Kralik A, Eder K, et al. Influence of Selenium and Zinc deficiency on
parameters related to thyroid metabolism Horm Metab Res 1996;28:223-226
and several others upon request
I always give selenium and zinc to those with low conversion and my
experience has been positive.
I also give supplemental Iodine with great care. Excess iodine restricts
the function of the thyroid.

Selenium can inhibit the conversion of T4 (storage hormone) to T3 (active
hormone). Iodine is the base of thyroid hormones, most of which made is
T4.
So, if your body is making mostly T4 and you have some sort of conversion
problem, then Selenium will only make it worse.
That is my understanding anyway. If I can find my source on that I will
post it!

Would you mind sharing the address of the iodine list. I was taking
selenium and I was under the care of 2 alternative doctors and I still
ended up with a problem. At this point I am taking time release T3 for
Wilson's body temp syndrome and it is the first thing that has helped.
They think the problem might be in the conversion from one form to the
other. All of the other things, I do.
Thanks.
