[QUOTE="apsjiml, post: 166881, member: 12831"] TSH is not a thyroid hormone and it in itself does not mean a whole lot. Free t3 is the active hormone that we can use. Low Carbohydrate and diets in general can cause changes in t3 and reverse t3 but I am not sure about tsh levels, as dieting in itself would not necessarily affect production but probably conversion from t4 into the active hormone free t3. The average healthy person really does have a free t3 somewhere in that upper portion of range. 2 to 4.2 range 3.5 to 3.8 is about average. If it were me, I would be checking out to see if I had any Hashimoto's antibodies. When people say in range you do realize that a free t3 at the bottom of the range probably represents not a healthy person but rather a sick person in the hospital. I would want to know how low it really is. [/QUOTE]
