T3 Genesis is an oral tablet from Genesis containing liothyronine, the synthetic form of the thyroid hormone T3. It is a prescription medicine for underactive thyroid and is discussed in the literature for its effect on metabolic rate.
T3 Genesis contains liothyronine sodium, a synthetic version of triiodothyronine (T3), the most active thyroid hormone. Medically it is used to treat hypothyroidism, some types of goitre and in thyroid testing. Because thyroid hormone controls metabolic rate, T3 is discussed in bodybuilding literature for fat loss during cutting phases, despite clear warnings against using thyroid hormones for weight loss in people with normal thyroid function.
Each tablet contains 25 mcg of liothyronine sodium, equivalent to the T3 hormone the thyroid gland produces. T3 acts directly on thyroid hormone receptors in almost every tissue, increasing energy use and heat production. Supplied as 100 Tablets.
