Thyroid Hx®
The thyroid gland is one of the smallest but most important organs in the body. It is responsible for controlling metabolism, supporting calorie-burning for energy, maintaining your comfort through temperature changes, and regulating your body’s reaction to proteins. The thyroid manufactures and releases two essential hormones to achieve this - Iodine and L-Tyrosine. As we age, our thyroid gland may become less efficient. Providing the thyroid with essential nutrients supports a healthy thyroid throughout the aging process.†
Important Components of Thyroid Hx®
Thyroid Hx® is a comprehensive formula that combines minerals, amino acids and herbs to support the health of the thyroid, and support mental and physical energy. Iodine is an essential mineral required for normal thyroid function. L-Tyrosine is an amino acid that functions as a precursor to thyroid hormones. Coleus Forskohlii Extract is an herb that has been shown to promote the breakdown of stored fats for energy, as well as increase communication between cells. Ashwagandha Root Powder provides herbal stress relief and supports healthy energy levels.†

The Science Behind The Ingredients In Thyroid Hx®
Evidence from Food and Nutrition Research states there is evidence for the improved maternal iodine status and thyroid function by iodine supplementation during pregnancy. Suggestive evidence was found for the relationship between improved thyroid function (used as an indicator of iodine status) during pregnancy and cognitive function in the offspring up to 18 months of age. Iodine is an essential component of the thyroid hormones, thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3), necessary for normal growth, development, and metabolism during pregnancy, infancy and throughout life. [1]
Research published in Neural Regeneration Research states that supplementation with L-Tyrosine helps to improve and support neuroendocrine function in humans and animal models. Reduced levels of oxidative stress in the thyroid was seen after consistent supplementation with L-Tyrosine. [2]
Research from the Journal of International Society of Sports Nutrition states that supplementation with Coleus Forskohlii Extract helped with the breakdown of fats for energy in humans and also increases cAMP levels which stimulates this and helps with the communication between cells be more efficient. [3]
Research from the African Journal of Complementary and Alternative Medicine states that supplementation with Ashwagandha Root helps the body to adapt and recover from stress. It was also found to be useful for mood enhancement and cognitive ability. [4]
