[QUOTE="jkozlow3, post: 166468, member: 20866"] The problem is, there's no proof that reverse T3 is actually a problem. Some people have this idea that RT3 is a competitive inhibitor to the active T3 hormone (as in RT3 somehow blocks T3) but I have yet to see proof of this in any academic article. Others have shot down this theory and said that RT3 is likely inert and does not compete with/block the active T3 hormone and is simply the body's way of dealing with excess levels of hormone (i.e. turning T4 into RT3 instead of T3 if the body believes there is already enough T3). Who is right? That's the million dollar question! [/QUOTE]
