Z||000000||Dlady27||06-20-2000||12:50 PM||giggyeyes@yahoo.com|| Advertised as a way to lose weight by increasing metabolism, Triax Metabolic Accelerator contains the ingedient tiratricol, which the FDA says is a potentially dangerous hormonal drug. David Orloff, MD, an FDA medical officer says those who take the recommended dose of Triax could be getting up to 10 times more per day of a potent thyroid hormone than is normal.<BR>That can cause not just uncomfortable thyroid-realted symptoms but increase the risk of heart attack, stroke and high blood pressure, particularly  in people with underlying heart disease, he explains. The FDA urges Triax users to see a doctor if they have symptoms of thyroid disease, including fatigue, profound weightloss, diarrhea, anxiety, nervousness, or insomnia. <P>taken out of M& F magazine August issue 2000||208.205.113.135||reg||

Maybe not as the main ingrediant but in the product.<P>  If anyone definatly knows the answer, please let me know.||209.5.124.85||reg||

He is using it for another purpose but essentially, the dosage is the parameter in question. I can give the website address to anyone interested.<BR>There is also a study done on a bodybuilder who took huge doses of tiratricol in the research literature at the national library of research articles. Let me know if you want a copy and I'll tell you how to get it. Basically, the research abstract chronicles the use of tiratricol by a female bodybuilder over the course of several cycles of the supplement. The article mentions that at the end of the last cycle thyroid hormone levels returned to normal following cessation of the substance. Anyway, thought I'd throw that in. <BR>I don't know all the ins-and-outs of this substance, but I wouldn't be surprised if the removal of tiratricol from shelves is more of a political move than a health-related one. <BR>I don't take it, but if you or someone you know does, then at least make sure to tell your family doctor so he or she knows. Just play it safe.<BR>Thanks and good health everyone.||198.211.217.82||reg||

From what I heard stacking triatricol with an ECA or NCY gets amazing results.  There is 1000 mg of tiratricol per capsule of tri-cuts.  How many should I take a day.  Bottle says one a day but not to exceed three a day.  HUH?||63.89.166.228||reg||
