Optimizes thyroid gland function.

Description:

Complete formula containing vitamins, minerals and plant extracts
Supports healthy thyroid cell metabolism and thyroid hormone function
Made with vegetarian and hypoallergenic ingredients

Thyroid Support Complex is a complete formula containing vitamins, minerals and plant extracts. It has been specially designed to support the proper functioning of the thyroid gland. Iodine is absorbed by the thyroid gland and promotes the formation of the hormones triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4). I-Tyrosine is also a key element in thyroid hormone synthesis. Healthy levels of selenium have been associated with the maintenance of healthy thyroid cell metabolism, as well as thyroid hormone function. Also acting as a powerful antioxidant, selenium combines with vitamin C and curcuminoids to neutralize free radicals, including those affecting the activity of the enzyme iodothyronine 5'-monodeiodase, the limiting factor in the conversion of T4 hormone into the more active T3 hormone. Thyroid Support Complex also contains standardized extracts of forskohlii, guggul and drowsy cockle, herbs that have been used traditionally for a very long time.
