Thyroid Medication question?
A friend of mine was just given CYTOMEL for an underactive thyroid.
Has any one been given this medication? I was told you need a T4 & T3 or just a T4. But never a T3 by itself…any thoughts?

gain weight and extremley difficult to lose weight (so many diets i have tryed, this is so hard)
memory loss/forgetfulness
mood swings (i am a teenager)

Mostly saturated fat contains cholesterol but isnt it the amount of saturated fat that is going to determine the rise in ldl? Not the dietary cholesterol?
Yeah so the excess saturated fat which messes with insulin sensitivity and the insulin resistance from saturated fat indirectly can contribute to the body’s liver making more cholesterol vldl, because insulin is require for natural cholesterol biosynthesis? Seems to make sense.
I am wondering if the limiting of dietary saturated fat is good but one may not have to worry about dietary cholesterol so much. Take a food like egg yolks, which are low in saturated fat but high in cholesterol and vitamins. Should it be a concern. Esp if one is prone to diabetes, heart disease and a carrier for hypercholesterolemia.

What are some uncontrollable health risk factors. Example for controllable health risk factors is weight, smoking, and exposure to sun — what are the ones that are uncontrollable? Sources are good.
