    T4 when to take

    Here is a quick one.

    T4 i know most take in A.M. same time as GH. My Question is it ok to take before bed. The reason i ask is that I do my weight training and cardio first thing in the A.M. which i take a pre work out drink with Caffiene. From what i have read T4 and Caffiene should be avoided.

    Considering this is there any reason not to take T4 before bed keep in mind i still take GH in the AM.

    Ive only come across the recommendation that you take T3 or T4 on an empty stomach.

    So maybe take Post workout before eating your PWO meal?

    Where did you read that T4 and caffeine shouldnt be taken together? Id like to read that.

    Yeah Im not disputing the fact at all.

    I want to know why. In what way do they affect each other in such a negative aspect.

    I know a few research chem places that sell T3, caffeine combos. Like in one pill or combined form of some sort.
    Guess they dont know what theyre doing.

    Take t-4 in the morning on an empty stomach without caffeine and you should be good to go!

    or if you get up in the middle of the night take it then and go back to sleep if, that is if, you do not get all wired up on it. Plus during sleep is when your hormones repair and replenish so something to consider as well as some think a good time to take during sleep.

    I have only read here on various post that Caffiene counter acts or stops the effects of taking T4. i may have misread and i am sure more will correct me if i am wrong.

    I don't think T3 has the same absorption issues that T4 has.

    When I have used T4 I took it first thing in the morn and waited at least an hour to have my morning coffee. I know for most it doesn't give energy but for me it did and therefore I didn't want to take it at night. FYI, my dose was 100mcg.
