THORNE Thyro (Support for Healthy Thyroid Function) 120 Vegetarian Capsules

 

• HORMONE REGULATION - Thyroid hormones regulate the metabolism of proteins, fats and carbohydrates, thus affecting the energy production of these macronutrients. Deficiency or excess thyroid hormones can have far-reaching effects.
• T4 to T3 CONVERSION SUPPORT - Thyro contains several cofactors for the nutrients needed to transform T4 into T3, including selenium, zinc and copper minerals. Conversion of T4 to T3 can be inhibited by heavy metal toxicity and lipid peroxidation; hence, the inclusion of antioxidant vitamins C and E to counterbalance this inhibition.
• MANY BENEFITS - Thyroid is responsible for many functions in our body, so it is important to ensure its proper functioning. Thyro Thorne's formula contains key ingredients for thyroid support, including iodine, which is necessary for formation of T4, and L-tyrosine, which is a necessary component of both T4 and T3 formation.

Nutritional and botanical support for healthy thyroid function in a non-glandular formulation*

Thyro thyroid cofactors enhance T4 hormone levels and support peripheral conversion of T4 to T3.* A Thorne exclusive.

Thyroid hormones regulate the metabolism of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates, thus affecting how these macro-nutrients produce energy. A deficiency or excess of thyroid hormones can have far-reaching effects. For example, a high cortisol level can interfere with thyroid function, resulting in low thyroxine (T4) or poor conversion of T4 to the active form, triiodothyronine (T3). Each thyroid hormone has multiple important functions in the body; for example, T4 supports cardiac output, heart rate, respiratory rate, and basal metabolic rate – a low basal metabolic rate can cause a person to be fatigued, chilly, and have trouble losing weight. Thyro provides nutritional and botanical support for healthy thyroid function, for the conversion of T4 to T3, and for normal cortisol levels.* This non-glandular thyroid-support formula is available only from Thorne.

Thorne's Thyro formula contains key ingredients for thyroid support, including iodine, which is necessary for formation of T4, and L-tyrosine, which is a necessary component of both T4 and T3 formation.* Animal studies have indicated that the Ayurvedic botanical, ashwagandha, can increase T4 concentrations.* Thyro also includes several nutrient cofactors necessary for converting T4 to T3, including the minerals selenium, zinc, and copper.* Thyro includes vitamin B12 because a deficiency of this vitamin appears to interfere with the activity of thyroid hormones.* Conversion of T4 to T3 can be inhibited by heavy metal toxicity and lipid peroxidation; hence, the inclusion of antioxidant vitamins C and E to counterbalance this inhibition.*
