The result is an increased rate of cellular activity (noted by a more rapid utilization of carbohydrates, fats and proteins). Those seeking weight loss are particularly attracted to Cytomel T3 for its ability to burn off body excess fat. Most often utilized during contest preparation, one can greatly decrease the amount of stored fat without being forced to severely restrict calories. To this end Cytomel is commonly used in conjunction with Clenbuterol and can produce extremely dramatic results.
This combination has become very popular in recent years, no doubt responsible for many ripped physiques.
Caution should be taken however. Cytomel comes with precautions which are not to be ignored.
Side effects include, but are not limited to,
- heart palpitations
agitation
shortness of breath
irregular heartbeat
sweating
nausea
headaches
psychic/metabolic disorders
It is a powerful hormone, and one that could potentially alter the normal functioning of the body if misused and overdosed. When taking Cytomel, one must remember to increase the dosage slowly, every other day until the maximum daily dosage is reached at about 160-200mcg. This will help the body adjust to the increased thyroid hormone, hopefully avoiding any sudden "shock" to the system.
The daily dose should also be split evenly throughout the day, in an effort to keep blood levels steadier.
It is important to stress that a cycle should last no longer than 3-4 weeks and it should never be halted abruptly. As slowly as the dosage was built up it should also be lowered.
Taking Cytomel for too long and/or at too high a dosage can result in a permanent thyroid deficiency. After doing such, one might need to be treated with a drug like Cytomel for life. It is also a good idea to first consult your physician and have your thyroid function tested. An undiagnosed hyperfunction would not mix well with the added hormone.
