I am a simple man. I eat a bowl of broccoli sprouts every morning. I sprout my own and it is cheap and easy. Over 2 years and I have never had a jar not sprout. But they have these capsules and whatnot. Are they good? I don't know. This paper says plain sprouts are better. You get more sulforaphane

I have been on T4 since 1995 and had T3 added in about ten years ago. I keep getting very high sugar and high blood pressure. (I eat sensibly and walk most days). I have read T3 can contribute to insulin resistance, wanted to ask if anyone else has had this issue?

I have been prescribed a three month trial of T3 by my NHS endo. I currently take 75mcg of Levothyroxine daily.
