The T3 uptake test helps to estimate the amount of TBG in the blood which in turn can help to determine how much T3 and T4 are unbound or free and able to affect the body's systems. It can be difficult to determine if a person's results for other thyroid tests such as T3 and T4...

Free T3 Blood Test (Labcorp)This test measures the amount of unbound or free Triiodothyronine (T3) in a person's system. T3 is a hormone which helps control the body's metabolism, temperature, and heart rate. Production of T3 is linked to the production of Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH...
Both types of testing offer you access to popular thyroid blood tests includingthyroidstimulating hormone (TSH), free thyroxine (Free T4),free triiodothyronine (Free T3), and thyroid peroxidase antibodies (TPO). How Self-tests Stack Up DTC lab testing is almost identical to conventional lab testin...
A number of factors may cause a high T3 uptake result. Test results should be interpreted by a doctor who can take into account your medical history and the results of other tests. Low TBG Levels Less TBG in the blood means there is less TBG available to bind to T3 and T4. This means...
This blood test is used to evaluate free and bound T3 (triiodothyronine) in order to help determine abnormal thyroid function & see if there are T3 deficiencies
Triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4) are the two active thyroid hormones found in the blood stream. About 80% of T3 is produced by the deiodination of T4 in the peripheral tissue and the other 20% is produced directly from the thyroid gland. T3 is transported through the peripheral bloo...
because those can be sure signs of a sluggish thyroid- even if your blood work doesn’t show it yet. We’ll be talking about how the food you eat impacts your thyroid–something that is KEY for healthy thyroid levels, metabolism and energy level- since your thyroid controls both of those...
Pastures in the south of Chile have been shown to be selenium deficient, and as selenium is a component of deiodinase type 1, which is necessary for the synthesis of triiodothyronine (T3) at peripheral levels, the effect of selenium deficiency on the blood concentration of theses hormones in ...
